Anyone in the future purchasing either a BRASS protech/parmiter post drivers will be pleased to know *ALL* of the models have foldaway/sliding stands/support legs for transport mode on your model ! Accuracy is key for a authentic model👌

The parmiter post driver (BRASS)* pre-production?* model made for a *special* customer, more of a base screw working mechanical angle poise ram with sliding metal hammer and fold away transport/stand legs! Nice model👌

Working sliding hammer weight and variable angle poise ram for the protech post drivers, small batch*updated* coming to conclusion this week!cheers for looking💪

After 8 years I revisited a brass build of my protech post drivers and gave it a full *detailed *upgrade, fully adjustable metal screw link arm, a lot of hours to build, I hope you like the *extra mile* obviously fully sliding metal hammer and all the extra’s i have including complicated hydraulic hoses! Thanks Barry

While I had a quiet few days, I thought I would make a model of what I had seen on a pig farm unit a few weeks back, never seen one in 1/32nd scale so I made it out of brass and a few different materials, handy for dioramas PTO driven power washer😁

One model I never put into production the Enorossi V Bat-rake takes me back a bit, something different🤔

Finally getting there working clothes/parts done, what a difference, fully *working brass build * small bale sledge/accumulators , a lot of work but I think the photos show they are worth all the effort, there will be only 8 available, some are gone already, PM only availability and cost! Thanks Barry 👌working gate/draw bar/separators swivel etc👍

Just a quick update on the fully working brass flat 8 bale sledges, just waiting on front wheel mounts, thought I would extend one to see what it looked like in folding action, needs skids and fine tuning, guaranteed these won’t melt😁👌

29/04/2023

That’s me done for tonight, I’ll just park these here, have a nice bank holiday folks, don’t forget to head over to Hlt miniatures for any cattle crushes/sheep weighers(all metal) that I have just finished as well this week👍☀️cheers

Done my 2 year military sabbatical , and missed my friends/mates in the farming model world and got Ryan mallon to remind me in a around about way recently about that fact, so I am going to start building brass 1/32nd unique models again, maybe some proper *Albutt push off buck rakes *?, but firstly a project I started and never got to make a small batch of if there is enough interest, a fully working brass bale sledge, please comment below on your thoughts on this it would be much appreciated thanks Barry

Making my own trees (15cm) 6 inches tall and my first attempt for personal use on my own dioramas, these are made on a very small budget and my time not bought in! 😁

The farmer disgusted at the state of the portable toilet by the yobbo’s after the bank holiday weekend , slams the door! If there’s enough interest in these I may put them back into production in the next month, seat n all! Let me know what you think! 1/32nd scale only but very detailed 👍take a closer 👀🤭
