Shortly after posting my micro tractor I started thinking about what kind of farm equipment I could build to go with it. Here are the results. Click on the images or start at my micro page for more info.

As usual instructions and LDraw files are provided.

Enjoy,

J


   Front end loader for the tractor,
with bucket attachment
 

   Disk harrow
 

   Gravity wagon
 

   Hay wagon
 

   Round bale wagon and spike attachment
for the front end loader

(...) More great work, Jason. I have one question about the harrow though: (2 URLs) 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? ROSCO (19 years ago, 7-Feb-06, to lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)

Hmm...maybe, but maybe "That's where you put yer weeeeed, maaan!" (SNL skit) Anyways, great (...) (19 years ago, 8-Feb-06, to lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)
