I'm thinkin the same thing Mike. But I will be testing it before I do a whole lot of side hill work. Not that I plan a whole lot of side hill work with this tractor and I don't take chances on side hills. But you need to know what your tractor is going to do before it does it. Those kind of...

Yup I have a deer at my house. It is a hunting decoy from TSC .My wife wanted a lawn ornament. She got one. My sliding window is on the wrong side for tim hortons. Is there a law against backing through the drive through. OK I made a couple of mistakes on the cab that really stand out. Both of...

Hey Guys, So it's not that I have been sitting around on my butt.:rolleyes:I have been working at it. The welding is almost done. A couple of pics.:D

Wow topgear that idea with the rippers ,:cool: boy do I like that.

Joe people who don't make mistakes don't do much and don't try new things. I think for your first welding job you did great. The first thing I ever welded was on a corn harvester when I was working on a farm when I was about 18 yrs old. It broke and nobody else on the farm could weld but they...

On my b7200 I raised the back of the engine cover up 2 inches and had that open up right into the cab. It never fogged up even in rain. I am going to do the same with the b8200. We will see if you still want to trade when you see this thing finished. I think it is going to look huge on this...

One more pic. Sliding window.:D

Hey Jerry, Thanks for the compliments. I don't have a metal brake , all I do is score the piece on the backside with a cutting wheel on an angle grinder. It creates a weak point where you want your bend. I use fairly thick material but you can use this method with thinner metal as well , you...

Well Guys its bin a while since I posted any progress on the cab. And there is progress. Still lots to do, The roof is on and sheet metal is almost done . What little there is of it. I am making a sliding window for the right side of the cab. Two days on it so far. Anyway here are a few more pics.:D

Joe your cab looks great, if mine turns out anywhere near as nice as yours I will be more than proud. Now I am the one who is jealous. No one should laugh at that cab. You did an amazing job.:cool::cool: Verrry cool.

Ob1, low 40s here tonight I had better keep hammering on his thing. I am putting 10 guage sheet steel on the roof and what ever is going to be covered on the sides. Most of the sides will be windows. The front and back are glass but I think I am going to have to cheap out on the sides. At...

Those forks look heavy duty. They also look really handy. Nice.

The cup holder is a must , may even put in a porta potti if I can find room. But if the cab is warm enough maybe I can blow snow in my tshirt. No having to peel off 14 layers to go to the can.A few more pics. home made door latch and a few more things done. The cab is off the tractor so I can...

Yeah jb I agree with joe nice job. I would like to see the rest of the stuff you made as well.:cool:

I hope not to see snow till december but we will take what comes. Had frost last week though. I'm just using a stick welder, I have a 220 mig , no gas , I don,t like it and it does't like me. The cab is 46 inches wide , about 6 in narrower than the tires. :)

Took some pics, The door is hung and the door jam is done. The cab splits just about seat level and I will have to lift the top about 6 inches and drive out from under it. I am going to put hangers in the leanto at the back of the shop. Drive the tractor out from under it. Then I have to rig...

Hey chief, I don't have one myself, but my son in law used one quite a bit and yeah they will pick up stones off of the surface. Good luck.:D

Iv'e seen things like this before on different machines through the years, but that has got to be the best most simple fix I have ever seen. Thinking outside of the box. Very Cool !!! :cool:

Hey Guys, Thanks for the comment's, Iv'e done a bunch since my last post but no pics. I'll take some tomorrow. chiefbuzzbee , We do get the odd bit of snow now and then. We had frost last Sunday.Not heavy but still frost. As far as a sunshade, I'm hoping it will make it feel like july next...
