    Default Tractor

    A guy at Bowls asked me to make a tractor for his Great Grandson. I purchased Aschi's plan #223, doubled the scale and made a couple of slight modifications. Then I got a bit carried away and made a stone roller (The boy lives on a farm in the Mallee area of SA) and a "chaser trailer" that he can carry "stuff" in. I gave it to GGPa at Bowls today. He was rapt. Timbers used were Radiata Pine, Blackwood, Jarrah, Californian Redwood, Australian Oak and Huon Pine.
