Fordson tractor help, please
« on: November 24, 2013, 03:53:14 pm »
I'm hoping this is the same as my brother-in-law's 'Power Major' as I've never actually seen it.
I've tried numerous times this week to make a pattern from this but I always end up with it far too complicated and uncuttable. I can't for the life of me make a simpler one that looks OK.

That was quick, Travis. It certainly looks do-able, though that front wheel looks a bit scary. Nothing to stop me putting another bridge in though.

Thank you!

Martin.

A little late, but maybe this is a bit simpler version to consider.

Cheers, Ray, I'll add it to the arsenal. I know someone else with a passion for tractors, if she ever gets in touch again.
