This is the latest off the line, probably my most ambitious build, this was done off photos, no plan and is a copy of the worlds largest Chamberlain tractor which was built in Karoonda SA. This was a commissioned job by the son of the farmer/engineer who built it. It is 750mm long, 270mm wide, 220mm high, unit articulated behind front wheels.

That looks better than the original Chamberlain.

There's a tractor called big bud , Google it, that or a versatile would look tough.

If you want a challenge build me a John Deere 7720 header with a 20ft pick up front, give ya up to $200 depending on scale.

I ran out of paint.... could'a had one more roll over the inside n outside of the doors.... but I'll do that one day when it needs a freshen up :p
Already spent around $120 just on paint alone.
It was an old tool cupboard in the shed, but daughter needs it more than me (had to freshen it up so'se it don't smell like grease and tools) :D
Lino looks great for all the flat surface's (even done the top.... that's where the grease gun used to live in a hessian bag) :p
