Great work as always Jan, I think the Deere 8430 is one of the best looking tractors out there. I don't think I've ever seen a farm tractor with a cage like that before, very cool! I'm waiting for my 1:16 ERTL Deere 8430 to arrive...   Rowan.

Yesterday I got the crane.It comes from a JOAL Volvo A35c.The crane is a little bigger than I expected.So I may have to construct outriggers to give it stability.I put it on provisionally for the photo just to see how it looks like on the model.  My plan was to use the back part of the Volvo as a log trailer.But it´s definately too big and too wide for this tractor.So I´m checking alternatives at the moment. Jan

Fendt 936 with Wirtgen WS250 soil stabilizer and Streumaster SW3FC agent spreader new from SIKU. The model like all from this line is very simply detailed. The spreader can be opened to fill it.But it can only be mounted in one position on the tractor and cannot be put into working position. The stabilizer can be mounted in 2 different positions.The only moveable part is the simply detailed stabilizer drum.But the metal casting on the stabilizer is nicely done and fairly detailed.And both attachments have correct printings on them.The model costs less than 20 euros over here.So it is quite affordable.
