More Case in Minature

This is a Case 1470 Tractoin King and an Amco F15 double offset disc harrow, 1/16" scale, that I scratch built back in the early 80's. Lot and lots of tinny little parts to make them all authentic.
The only things purchased were the wheels and tires. Everything else was made from brass tubing, washers, and anything else that I could find that fit my needs. The engine was hand carved from a block of balsa wood.
I have several more similar projects that I will post about as winter progresses.

Sorry for the dust-----I guess that I need to make a 1/16 scale pressure washer.

WOW ! I bet the case guys will want to place orders for those !
Do you have any with remote controls that work ?
Local guy made a Massey 4x4 like that with battery power and remote control. He tried it out on the pedal tractor pull sled and it really did well.
 
A little over a hundred hours to build the disc. Probably about the same for the 1470.
I have about 20 hours of actual work time into the Case 8358 plow that I am building in minature currently, that I have made posts about on both Case forum and Tractor Talers since I decide to replicate the one that I have been actually plowing with behind my 931.

At 71 years old, I am finding making these minatures more time consuming. I can't see as well, and I am far less steady with a soldering iron than I used to be.
Yes the Case guys have placed their requests for a plow like the one that I am currently building.
I hope they are not holding their breath.

I don't have a clue how long either would take but a 100 hours just doesn't seem like enough time for something that small and detailed. You sure do nice work.
