More CASE in Miniature

I have completed the Landoll Soil Master, other than some touch up paint and decals.
I have also been working on my latest toy Case 1030 custom. I removed a lot of the rear housing from the
casting and built a realistic rear end with wide swinging roller drawbar, PTO and hydraulic system. I
decided to make it with a MFD front axle, which was not prevalent on 30 series tractors. (see discussion
down on CASE-DB board).
I am also finishing up a 1962ish 930 long nose tractor that I started years ago. Only a hand full of
these customs were ever built from a Ertl 600 casting. Dakota toys only offered the hood for a single run
to my knowledge. You could make either a 900B or the later 930.

You do AMAZING work in miniature, as well as your full-sized projects.

As to the tractor "add-ons" you gotta find a kid that is learning 3-D printing at school and have 'em print out the parts for you!

Our local HS has a "robotics" program, and it's amazing to see some of the things the kids have designed and printed on their own, outside of classwork.
 
Was wondering how some of your pictures got to be a day ahead of the rest of us? But very nice work, wish I had that skill set.
 
Very nice work. I've collected models of some of the tractors and combines I've owned over the years but don't have anything for my early 930. Your fabrication job of an early 930 is impressive.
 
I sure would hate to charge anyone for my time to build this stuff. It is quicker and easier to build real stuff than these things.
Every time I cut off a little piece for something and it falls on the floor, it takes forever to find it,. I learned to keep the floor well swept in my work area, and it is amassing how far a 3/8" length of 3/16" brass tubing can roll on a floor, when it is cut off with the dremel.
