Subject: Re: Die cast farm toy collectors



West Texas
I used to collect them and 'customized' some of them. I've done simple things like added dual wheels to tractors etc. Used to customize semi truck models when I was 12-15 yrs old.

Built a steel grain cart with my kids some years back with help from Don Campbell on the toy forum. But I haven't done much the last several years. Not enough hrs in the day.

Started building a 1/16th copy of an aluminum dump trailer like we used to have. Had all parts made and was ready to put it together but never finished it because we moved here. It was left in our shop in Holland.

Just used regular tools. Whatever was available. Only had stick welders until recently and haven't had a plasma cutter but for a few months. Those sure would have came in handy during my modifying and fabricating stage. lol
