Very cool Loco -- the world of boats is very foreign to me, so I never even think about building them. Great to see some new ideas like these.

I am almost complete with one part of a large diorama of the French sea side and of a village it should be complete by February.So I will soon upload that .

I just finished one part of a large diorama that I am working on.This is a oyster,mussel,seaweed and clam farm at low tide in the north west part of Bretagne.Here are the pictures picture 1,picture 2,picture 3 .

Also sorry for double posting. :-$

[Asuka]

A clam farm...? Heck, just beware of the walrus, hush-hush on!! X-O

Nah, seriously, a very nice work with an interesting land(sea?)scaping and

a very good, ahem, Battractor...? Hmm, why not.... I guess there

[iamded]

The tractor looks cool! I don't really know what a clam farm looks like, so I can't really comment on the rest...

Can you explain some of the functions of parts on the farm?

I dont really know what I'm looking at. :-$

[Loco de Lego]

Sorry Johnny 5 and iamded for not explaining this is really a oyster farm but the reason a said a clam farm is because of the tractor which has a little attachment at the back which digs up the ground so others can come behind to pick up the clams at low tide also mussels are cultivated on those polls which on I will soon wrap black string to look like seaweed on which the mussels can grow on,the poles are covered at high tide so that the can grow.The oysters grow on the tables and the same as the mussels they get covered at high tide .The seaweed is collected at low tide and the guy collecting scoops it up with a claw and puts it in a basket behind its back .Here is a picture of and oyster farm in Cancale,France picture.Also all the tools are just for digging and sweeping away bad oysters and in the tool shed there are things for making repairs to the tractor.And you are probably thinking there is no room for the tractor but it but this is just a small part of a large diorama i am working on.
