More great work, Jason. I have one question about the harrow though:



Is there a reason you placed the technic 1/2 pin that way round? I would have thought the 1x1 round plate would attach better to the studded end?

Yup, there actually is. If you turn it around there won’t be enough friction between the half pin and the pneumatic T piece to keep it attached to the tractor. The T piece will just pull out with minimal handling. I guess it doesn’t really matter if you are only displaying it, but even still it is a little nicer if it doesn’t fall apart every time you pick it up, not to mention if you actually want to play with it! :)
