I have the same one I kept after selling my motorcycle. Never thought about using it for wheels. Bill

I will be 73 next month and I wouldn't have wanted that chore, not fond of heavy weed trimmer work! I started a 40 x 12 lean-to woodshed addition on my garage about a month ago and I have been thinking all the while this will be my last big job. But I love to keep busy! Bill

Never happened to use one exactly like that one. Seems like that would be a better solution for this problem.

Your last sentence was what I thought might be loosening it. Maybe the hose was replaced and it is just a little shorter than what it needs to be so it pulls when it swings to that side? Bill

I have an old Yard Machine brand garden tractor I have thought about doing that to, moving its deck from underneath to the front. I have a few rough areas I mow on my dog walking paths. It has a belt engaging lever so an electric clutch would be needed. That project hasn't made its way to the...

That is some really nice work there Paul! I sure am a little envious of your skills, and attention to details. I'm not good at lathe work for like the washers with the extra o-rings. I get things done but often lacking on finish and painting. Not my kubota but my Ford 8N. I put an electric power...

Is that street elbow near the top of your picture a plumbing fitting? If it is it isn't something to use for hydraulic pressures that are at least 10 times its rating. Bill

That blue box tubing takes me back to my working days for Albany international. A lot of what we built in Maintenance was painted that color. Every time we scrapped or changed something those odd pieces of steel would be thrown in the scrap bin. We were allowed to take it if we wanted. Lots of...

Thanks RWS , that link has a ton of stuff there! Decisions decisions now! Bill

Hey nice job on your bar, could you tell me where you got the teeth for your bar? I have been thinking about buying or building a bar as I am adding a wood shed to my shop and I have tried without much success to dig and grade around there in my crappy clay hard pan soil with the bucket...

I have one of those I bought many years ago from Central Tractor, a chain that was around here like TSC. It came with that and a separate single shank you switched out with a couple bolts. I used the shank to pull a path thru to put in a LP line. After the first pass I pulled in some pex tubing...

I think they turn their heads because they want to trick you. Its them smelling their own pretending "what is that lovely fragrance? is it the wild flowers or did you step on some strawberries?" My first black and white GSP, Pepper, used to sleep on the floor at the foot of my bed. His would...

I agree. My 8N was getting hard to shift. I adjusted the clutch thinking that would do it and it did for a week or so. I found that the problem came back and expected to have to split the tractor for a clutch. Until I found that 76 yr old linkage was cracked and changing things. I struggled to...

I like his collection of stuff around his area! Bill

I bought the vevor one somewhere. It has worked good for my purposes. Bill
