Jerry thank you so much. I wanted at least one piece of equipment that looked like it had around for a long time.

[Rick]

Larry, the added details look great, but I still think the the bench is to clean.

Howdy Larry,

The additional details look terrific.  The compressor and vise add even more realism to the scene.  Nice work.

Have fun,

Thank you Rick, Curt, Ron, Philip, and Mike for the nice compliments.
Even though it's been slow going progress is still being made from time to time.

Moving along:



A top down view; starting from the back right corner: added dirt to the floor heavier around the bench, oil sump, and around the oil pan; the rest of the floor just hit & miss. Also grudged up bench as per Ron's suggestion. The wall drill press has metal shavings both on the drill and on the floor underneath.

The Tractor is from SW and unfortunately the back wheel broke off which turned out to be a happy accident. Made an axle block from a piece of 12x12 given my usual treatment. Added a creeper, oil pan with an empty can thrown in, oil can waiting to be used sitting next to the tractor, a pail by the front tire, and a floor jack standing by to unjack the tractor; these are also from SW.

The left side I added a garbage can, a broom on the wall, and a 50 gal oil can with a wrench placed on top. On the right side I placed the tractor tire against the wall while the axle is being fixed. The interior is finished as far as details go.





Here's a couple of shots taken looking through the tractor entrance. Also added dirt where the vehicles enter. Next will be finishing off the 3 windows
and gluing them in place before finish gluing the walls together.  Thanks for stopping by for a look-see and for your great comments and/or suggestions.

Howdy Larry, it keeps getting better and better with the addition of the subtle details.  Well done!  Have fun, mike

Larry,

Fantastic build. Love the tractor under repair and the nasty look of the floor.

Larry, I like the grungier look.
Tractor and all the other details work well.

Excellent weathering on the floor, it looks like oil soaked wood.
