lightningtiger Posted December 7, 2009 Okay, I have deceided to start doing farm MOC's while still doing my country town ones. Looking at this,, I dont like the feed trough. So in 1 minute I made this.. Another view of this MOC, any comments welcome. By the way if you think of something on a farm you would like to see MOCed, post it and I'll try it.

Rick Posted December 7, 2009 Much better. I think TLG could have easily made it much better if they would have done it this way, or even least parts-intensive by adding two 1 x 4 x 1 panels of 1 x 4 x 1 (low) fences. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
David Thomsen Posted December 7, 2009 I'm not sure if that's the final version of the impulse set... it just doesn't look right. Your one with sides looks much better. I actually wasn't sure what the official one was supposed to be and thought it was some kind of vegetable patch. Here's something I was thinking of making but will probably never get around to... a crop duster. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I could use a plane from an earlier Indi set and heavily MOD it. I just google crop dusters and dig up the info I need. Thanks "David Thomsen' and 'Rick' for your comments.

prateek Posted December 8, 2009 Awesome MOD for a set that hasn't even been released yet! I love the No More Weeds and the tractor attachment too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Forresto Posted December 8, 2009 It looks like someone can't wait to buy his Lego farm sets Anyways great mods and I really love the food trough you made. It's so weird that it only took an easy mod to make the trough look really good! Okay fine not weird. It actually makes sense but Brilliant job on these anyways!

DJ Force Posted December 9, 2009 Your MOCs and MODs actually make me want to start collecting and building my own farm! Keep up the great work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prateek Posted December 9, 2009 Oh my, even more MOCs! I love the chainsaw and the fertalizer spreader. They're so simple yet so awesome! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted December 10, 2009 Thank you everyone for your response, it's fanastic. I put in about an hour to about four hours per design trying to make it as realistic as possible. There is an old saying - 'You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet !' Some industrial level gear will be posted shortly in the same post as you can find this equipment used on a farm as well in workshops and construction sites - hopefully this afternoon EST (+9.30 GMT) I can post my latest thanks to the help of LDD and Goggle.

lightningtiger Posted December 10, 2009 I'm back and this time like I promised somethings that can be used on the farm or construction site if lifters, cranes or buckets don't work. Hydraulic hose cutoff saw (could be used for steel as well I guess). Hyrdraulic hose crimper (this one is just about my favorite mini-MOC ever) This one is actually based on the hand pumped hose crimper I found on the net. Comments welcome.

Milan Posted December 10, 2009 Really useful hardware! I am using that saw for cutting pipes and steel supports in my weekend house, for various purposes... My suggestion is to get those worker some kind of eye protection ASAP! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rick Posted December 10, 2009 The second one is not that recognizable to me (but that's because I don't know the original equipment), but the first one is really well done, I like how you simply added a hinge and created a new tool... very inventive Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ras 74 Posted December 10, 2009 The first one, the saw, is a very good little moc. Very clever design for sure. In the same range as Hinckleys very good blender. Also like your chainsaw. Could work with red as well to become the famous Swedich Jonsered. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted December 10, 2009 Thank you 'Milan', 'Rick' and 'Res74' for your comments. 'Rick' I have here a small picture to show you what a hose crimper is. Also thanks 'Ras74' for that link, it will be handy for some other MOC machines I'm planning. More tomorrow folks ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted December 11, 2009 Just one today. Log splitter attachment for 7634 tractor. Here is a picture of a real one. These are starting to get harder, more ideas for farm gear welcome, oh yeah your comments too, they are always welcome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rick Posted December 11, 2009 Nice, now make sure you're not really going to bend that axle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted December 11, 2009 Nice, now make sure you're not really going to bend that axle Yeah, I know I should have used a couple of 2x2 round bricks to be the logs instead - my fault. Thank you for the comment anyway, 'Rick'. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prateek Posted December 12, 2009 That mitre saw is my new favourite. I aam amazed how these MOCs are so accurate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
