Looks like you are off to a running start, and a solid plan. Two questions, what scale is it, and is the head, ( I think that's what you call it) going to rotate?

Hey Jon, Ertl rates it as 1/16, but it is closer to 1/14. The header will raise and lower and the reel will rotate along with the auger. The unloading auger will swing out as well. This is the 3rd one I've done but first time taken step by step pics.
