(this has been on TTT for awhile)
Hey guys . I havent had a whole of time to work on my display since i started working at the dairy but this is what I have been able to get accomplished. Please let me know what you all think.
First up and the thing I have spent most of my free time on is my 75' by 42' cattle barn. All scratch built. Still needs quite a bit of work but its come a long way.
here it is with my scratch-cast elevator i bought off a fellow TTT member:

loading manure into our Knight 8018 sideslinger

inside of the barn where the show calves are kept.

one end of the barn

pic of some of our herd grazing on a hill

driveway coming up to the farm

pic of the cow lot

bringing the rake back from one of our hayfields. kind of tight turn. we are thinking of getting rid of the rotary and getting a v-rake.

our 40' by 52' "feed" barn. this is where all equipment to grind our feed is kept.

42' by 60' machine shed where most of our hay equipment is kept.

caught a pic of Uncle Kevin through the trees running Four Leaf Farms 4440 drilling beans with their Tye 15' drill in the field next to our house.

lady: Hello! I don't know if anyone would be able to help me out or not, but I am looking for a John Deere 1/64 Scale 714 Chisel Plow 15 Shank. We are Hog Farmers, and this fall was our middle son's 1st Year chisel plowing with that particular implement! Dec 8, 2016 8:25:20 GMT -5

jmsales: Hello, we are interested in the 1/64 New Holland bale mover, does someone make these if so can they be purchased. Apr 22, 2017 19:55:22 GMT -5

mmccann: I’m looking for a small (5-6 inches long) “matchbox” size-ish welder truck painted red. My wife’s father died last year and his occupation was welder. He always drove red trucks. Could you make one and have it to be by Christmas? Nov 24, 2018 12:52:05 GMT -5
