easiest thing would be customizing tractor with different tires and such J.Hasert: What about kit wise for implements jeff moores farm toys: Just
take an old tractor or implement and start.

Other wise sub assemble the ladder for example and Hang and spray paint it jeff moores farm toys:
Or you can lay all the parts on wax paper and spray them one side at time. Kennth: What about customizing cotton pickers, I know not knowing what they look like,: and how they operate, but I was visiting your site today and saw add on kits for Combines jeff moores farm toys: Cotton
picker ?? Wanting kits? Kennth: Yes,

making the drums raise and lower, basket lift and dump jeff moores farm toys: Very
doubtful if we ever make any detail kits for them. Sorry. T Kennth: Ok, thought I'd ask J.Hasert: To everyone what would your #1 hay tool be. Rake, Baler joe in ct: to make would be tedder Nick Barden: Big
