Custom Motor Scraper

[Tim_w]

Hello CH, Richard 

Thank you both very much indeed for your kind word's of encouragement and for taking the time to reply. Whilst i was painting the vehicle outside every fruit fly in a 1 mile radius decided to come and land on one of the components that was drying. I had to carefully pick them out of the paint and re-spray it. As soon as i had painted the arms that attatch the box to the vehicle i dropped them on the floor of my shed !! Needless to say this had to be allowed to dry, rubbed down and re-sprayed again !! All in all it was a bit of a nightmare as projects go
I don't know what the next vehicle project is going to be just yet, but rest assured PlaymoFriends will have the exclusive .

Kindest Regards  Tim

It's the colour - yellow attracts insects.  Some years ago I tried to paint the garage doors yellow, but after about three days gave up because of the insects attracted by the colour.

Hi Tim,

 Excellent work again, great attention to detail and lots of moving working parts again.

 I find it great fun playing a game called spot the parts Tim has used to create this one. 

 Whats next

Hello  Gordon, Garry

First of all thank you both for the very kind replies and feedback. It's a pleasure to share my work with everyone here at PlaymoFriends.

Gordon:
I can imagine the frustration you must have experienced whilst trying to paint your garage door's  . I can imagine with such a big yellow target to aim for you had pretty much everything that's attracted to flowers homing in on them

Garry:
I think you will be able to spot most of the Playmobil used on this model as it was quite easy on parts use. The digger bucket off the old bucket loader not only doubled as the guard on the back of the scraper box but the mud guards to. I think my next project is going to be another form of earth mover or heavy machine.

Kindest Regards  Tim

Hello  Rob, Jimbo

Thank you both very much indeed for the kind feedback to my motor scraper. It certainly has its uses, infact you might see some photo story's in the future based around it.

Kindest Regards  Tim
