In that case it just keeps creeping this project.
Hope the wife doesn't notice I am missing during her Christmas preparations.

DAYUM what a nice build,,,, hey I got a line on a 57 ford 2 door hardtop, ya wana tackle that for me,,lol,, very nice, very nice indeed

 

[Rikard]

Thank you for the kind words. I would like to get my hands in that old Ford. Unfortunately time and distance does not permit that.

 

[Rikard]

More fun with the loved one.......and a bit of DIY nickel electroplating of the uncommon bolts. DONT do that at home (before you think you know what you are doing)

 

[Rikard]

New nickel looks better than rust.

 

[skeets]

Very very nice!!! And I like how you used the battery charger to clean things,, I do the same thing when i find old cast iron cook wear,, You do nice work my friend!!

 

[Rikard]

finally the finish of the tractor starts to match that of the front linkage.

She is looking better and better every day,, It is sure going to be a shame to get her dirty,,,

Christmas at the family and new year in some warm country is fine, but does not speed up the project.
Electroplating finished though.

 

[Rikard]

A few more hours spent...

 

[Rikard]

Denmark is rather dark this time of year, so more light is just nice.

Electroplating finished though.

Electroplating? Holy moley, Batman, we're going to have to crank it up a bit -- sanding and painting won't cut it any more!

 

[Rikard]

Still not quite there...

 

[ShaunBlake]

Still not quite there...

Wow! It's going to be better than new! I think I'd be for putting up a shelf over my mantle, and displaying it behind glass!

 

[Rikard]

Thank you for the kind words.
A little more progress, and the very first step of a mini backhoe for the loved Kubota.

 

[Rikard]

A winter well spent with the loved ones.
