1/6 Scale John Deere Baler

[Mike N]

I just finished my 1/6th scale John Deere baler. It works good on straw.

I ended up with 2 blisters after installing over 150 rivets! :'(

I drive it with a RedWing engine for now, but a Dinky Deere should be on my build list. I wonder if there are any casting kits left out there.

The baler is about 30" long. The bales are 2 1/2" x 3 1/2" x 7". The wheels are 6" in diameter.

I like these projects which are not mainstream. Did you do your own plans? Did you have to gather your own dimensions? Looks very nice indeed. Well done! :bow:
