Description

A farm vehicle in miniature

This set belongs to the Technic range and represents the kind of machine you would see working in fields and farmyards. With just 104 pieces it is one of the smallest models in the line. Instead of a huge frame you get a compact vehicle that can be built in a single afternoon. Because there is so little material involved, it is easy to see how the individual parts work together and what job each one does in the finished model.

Black, grey and a splash of red

The colour scheme is sober. Black, light bluish grey and dark bluish grey make up most of the model, with red as the accent. That suits Technic, where function comes before looks. Of the 104 pieces, 41 are different types, so many parts appear several times, such as connectors and axles. If you go through the parts list on this page you can see at a glance which types they are and how many of each you need.

Building with axles and beams

Technic models rely on perforated beams, pins and axles rather than studs alone. Building the tractor therefore teaches you how wheels sit on an axle and how a chassis is joined together firmly. That makes the set a friendly first project for anyone new to this style of building. Children of primary-school age can manage it with a little help, and adults will not need much time to finish it, which makes it a relaxed build.

Reusing the parts

Even a small set can add to a collection. The Technic elements in the tractor fit many other models from the same range, whether beams or connectors. With the "What can I build?" tool on Bricoria you can find out which other sets you could put together from these pieces combined with the rest of your collection. So 104 pieces might become the starting stock for your next project, one you can tackle without buying anything new.
