Not sure why daughters are always stealing these things!

Oldies but Goodies! A picture i took at the 2012 Mentone, Indiana Wheel Horse Swap Meet that made it in Law and Garden Tractor Magazine! I took several photos at the request of Richard Layne of the highlight of the Mentone Swap Meet held on April 21, 2012. This was a two horses purchased by a one horse hauler: Tthe trailer hauling the two C models wheel horse tractors had a flat tire down the road about a mile after leaving the Mentone Park Swap Meet site. Both Wheel Horse tractors ran and as my brother David said he should have hooked up the Wheel Horse tractors as a team and hauled the real horse home!

So let me get this straight... it's not ok for her to lie to Congress about stock deals, but it's ok for Congressmen and women to lie about their stock deals while in Congress... Got it...

The return trip to the hospital showed no bleeding without the Eliquis blood thinner, so I returned to the rehab center several days ago. I was being given iron pills that should have stimulated hemoglobin but the numbers went down rather than up. Every day they were in the 8 range which is rather low. Well I have learned another lesson along with the entire medical staff at the rehabilitation center. I requested the information sheets on the prescriptions I was taking; BINGO Two medications that were being administered at the same time as the iron were making it ineffective. The other two meds were moved to the evening rather than the morning and my hemoglobin went from 8.4 to 9.6 on the first day. 13 +/- is normal so I should be headed home by Friday. I know we all hate to read every word in the instructions but in this case it was well worth doing. Internet sites didn't reveal any negative interaction but reading the precautions and determining how the could impact others like the iron pill proved to be an eye opener.

March 4, 2005, billionaire mogul Martha Stewart is released from a federal prison near Alderson, West Virginia, after serving five months for lying to Congress about her sale of ImClone stock in 2001. After her televised exit from the facility, Stewart flew on a chartered jet from nearby Greenbrier International Airport to New York, where she would serve out her remaining five-month home confinement on her 153-acre Bedford, New York, estate.

AKA - "Camp Cupcake" Prison sure is different for those with $$$.

The Sweepster C-48 broom really does an excellent job of getting the rocks out of the grass. I used to sweep them back into the road when it was dirt. Now it’s paved so and so is my driveway so I won’t be using it for that purpose anymore. I’ll still use it for light snow and if I ever get my rear in gear I’m going to add some casters to it so I can de-thatch my lawn. Or I’ll just use my EZ-Rake model 100, sorry if I got off topic.

The big 14? Happy birthday, hopefully pops got you something good for the Horses! Keep on wrenching man!

My wife is a medical professional. About 25 years ago the laws in Texas changed. She can’t even accept a free pen with a drug company name on it. Her clinic doesn’t even let drug sales people in the door. Front door has a no solicitation sign.

And my sister yelling “turn it the other way stupid”

Hello, my Name is Dick and I recently scooped up a D160. I had actually been looking at 312-8s because they are gear drive but I recently purchased a large property with wooded land and suddenly I found my self needing a heavier machine. I camper across a D160 with the snowblower, plow, and deck. Rear 3 point hitch, running and working for $800. I had to send a kid to fetch it and when he returned I realized that I believed the deck is not the correct one and I’m in need of a mule drive. I’ve been creeping this site for a while and I figured how I need one of join.

I'm glad thing are getting better Dick. I use a site call drugs.com. I have all of my prescription meds registered there. It shows all the potential interactions ranked from mild to severe. Any time another med is added to my regime, I enter it to see the results. Though I trust my GP, he suggested an Rx for me a couple months ago that could have had severe interactions with my Afib. When I showed it to my cardiologist, he was shocked. Fortunately I hadn't filled that Rx. I told my wife that I still feel that doctors are receiving kickbacks from drug companies for pushing new (expensive) stuff. Even though this does not apply in your case, a simple task of running your drug list for interactions with iron would have flagged the potential problems.

I was able to get my hand/fingers and ratchet up above the mid lift and tighten the two bolts, all is well now. On a side note I got my front dozer blade cleaned, sanded, primed, and painted

IDK the engine probably ran for 50 to 60 years with out them before.

When i was young teen my Dad and I would go to MONTGOMERY WARDS we would go see the Wards tractors - begging him to buy one so i could start a lawn mowing business - finally he bought one under the condition i split the income from mowing lawns to buy the Wards 7 hp tractor with mower and plow - - it was his way of teaching me about expenses and learning "cash in cash out" -- Then 20 yrs later in 80s as "paycheck to paycheck" family with 2 young children I would go into local business who sold WH tractors -- loved wandering around the WH showroom seeing all that pretty red equipment - dreaming and hoping one day to afford buying a WH after having owned that basic Wards tractor as a teen. I was fortunate that an Aunt left my sisters and me a little money when she passed - - bought my 1989 312-8 then with various attachments all of which i could never have afforded from our very tight family budget. Now the WH tractors are in my daughter and son's family as well -- we have all had different paths becoming WH owners - My orientation does not go back to 50s or 60s or even the 70s like some others here but the entire history of the company and the trail of WH owners is certainly interesting how those journeys began.

Happy Birthday 🎂 🥳 🎉

HAPPPPY BIRTHDAY

I couldn’t open the pictures either and was afraid maybe it was scam.

Happy Happy Junior!

We did to until we upgraded to a two man outside antenna in 1952. One person took the pipe wrench to the back porch and turned the support pipe while the second person relayed the picture quality to the pipe man.

Happy Borned on Day, Tony

@Pullstart looks like a time capsule , personally would get , a penetrating oil recovery going on that paint , no rubbing of any kind , just let it soak in for weeks and retain ORIGINAL PATINA , would gently rub that stage down with clean MINERAL OIL soaked cloth , again no hard surface drag , you want to save whats there , will typically be in a perfect darker stage , rest of mechanical set up , lubrication drainage / refresh , especially fuel system , from tank to carb , like as much metal line as you can get , eliminate rubber hose , would go step by step , helped a guy with a similar old BOLENS , Wisconsin engine , that came out very well , good luck with it , pete

Have a Great Day

Happy Birthday!!!

Happy birthday!!

Happy Birthday young man...

The posting Bill Allert made is the avenue I took with my Lawn Ranger Tecumseh motors. I rebuilt three rectifier boards with the 3 amp diodes from Radio Shack and the other parts that Ed Stoller mentioned. They work and do the same thing the original diodes did and they will produce the same electrical output! Ed Stoller did three articles in the Lawn and Garden Tractor Magazine a couple years ago that highlighted this issue. The bigger HH 100 Tecumseh 10 HP electronic coils are also an issue that many Tecumseh motor owners have dealt with. Ed Stoller came up with a solution for that one too!

@Chav88 , that deck might not be what you need but stay hooked up on this site and get the 312-8 you were looking for because they're great machines and two is better than one, three is better than two... Sincerely, @ineedanother

They do work good for that if you can get the height just right. Too low they'll rip the roots right out. In this sand anyway.

Answered this in your other thread. The hazard of putting the same post in two places.

Smokem if ya got em ... Read trough them with a multi meter. Usually they go in only one way because of the notch. Notch end or cathode up feeding the fuse and the battery.

Seems to me I've read that an exhaust valve should be rotating. Intake is optional. Heat patterns perhaps?

I believe you're doing fine. A Wheelhorse thread and you writing/ typing about Wheelhorse stuff.... Seems reasonable.

Don't sweep too early otherwise it will snow again!

It does both.

I noticed this morning walking to the mailbox that there was a lot of gravel in the yard by the road. We had a lot of small storms this winter and the Twp outdid itself with stone. Sweepster will be coming out early this year. My shoulder and rakes do not get along. Ed you need one and your cab would be a good thing. A face full of snow from the blower is one thing a face full of gravel when the wind picks up is another...Takes me multiple days waiting for the right wind conditions...

Raked the stones back to the hard road then used the dozer blade to push them to the stone road.

Thank you Big Unit ! @ebinmaine @Achto

@EB-80/8inPA my carbole electric pumps are 2-3.5 psi , no issues , pete

Got some new tires that I thought would be a good reference here. Armstrong "Big Bite" 16x8.50-8. 4 ply rated. Actual measurements are dead on 16 inches tall, 8 and 3/8 wide. First pic is one next to a 7.50 wide tire, next beside the old Firestone 6.50 tri ribs. Mounted on 8x7 wheels.

Worked on this Clinton for a bit for the RJ-35 cable steer. These are like Onans or techies or even Briggs ... easy to work on but just a bastage to find parts for.

Worked a little on some tire/ wheel stuff today for a project. 2 tires had Predator blood in them. What a mess! You absolutely have to love this stuff. Otherwise no way I'd do it!

Great to finally have a day near 60 degrees. Had a few out for some fresh air. Cherry smoke smells great too. Smoked turkey sandwiches later.

Geez @ebinmaine... kinda overkill when all you really need to do is send BBT out there...
