Hello folks!
I grew up on a farm near Wichita Kansas and Dad ran an 8030 Allis and a 7145 Deutz. Though he quit farming when I was 8, I'm still in love with Allis tractors. I've taken up the hobby of woodworking and built a 1:16 model of an Ertl 8010.
Enjoy!

Nicely done & surely one of a kind! Thanks for sharing. Any mahogany, oak, maple wood in the 8010?

Thank you, gentlemen!
The body is oak, and the tires are walnut!
Orange tractors are rare around here... I'm glad I can post it where it's appreciated!

I took a closer look on my laptop at it. Wow! Does the front axle steer? Any pictures of the rear?

You must have some hours in those lugged walnut wheels - fantastic!

Yes indeed! A hand file and lots of patience but I like the result. I've since upgraded to using a table saw and jig to get similar results, but still need to do the finer details by hand

Front axle steers and oscillates, all the wheels turn, and the back features a 3 point and pto shaft. I'll get some more pictures soon!
