28mm tools and farm implements
« on: 21 August 2023, 09:57:37 AM »
Please can anyone suggest sources of 28mm tools and farm implements.   I’m particularly interested in wood cutting equipment, band saws etc.

I think my internet foo has failed me!

It’s mainly hand tools I’m after.  I don’t want to print them myself…was hoping there were some available in white metal?

Cheers

I *think* I have ordered from them in the past, but honestly cannot recall.

There are some GW kits that have hand tools, but the bits prices on eBay have gotten out of control.  I used a few Lego pieces for my workbench setup, mixed with a few GW pieces I was able to scrounge.  O scale are probably your best options, and they may not scale up exactly right.

I have some 25mm axes, & probably some peasant weapons (pitchforks, scythes etc)
Any use?

You could try Irregular miniatures - they offer peasant types.

I bought many pieces from Berkshire Models when they were in the UK just before they were sold off to Berkshire Valley Models in the US
