In-between waiting it is 2 shades of Green ! for the Saw mill Husk bit - a start on a 1/24th scale logging truck for the French saw mill - I first upload the instruction book to 1/24th scale to see what a twin rear axle would look like - well its massive a 17in beast long beast - more to follow in the truck department of the forum
The next project is not far off the finishing line a rail tractor  conversion 2Ft 6In gauge (nearly) in 1/24th scale (O Gauge track 32mm)
and a 18in mining inspection motor bike trolley in 1/24th scale
All while the paint is Drying

I'm only a man so can't multitask. I don't know how you are able to tackle so many projects at the same time! In addition all of them "spot on".

The Ferguson is well done, Barney. I have a soft spot for this type of rail tractor.
