1257 finally complete! Here is a link to a video......... https://youtu.be/_zh7xgJaWWY

The Kids stockings are hung. The trees are trimmed. The table is set and the food is in the oven. Time to kick back for a few minutes before the clan arrives this Christmas evening and wish a Merry Christmas to all my Wheel Horse friends. Best Wishes from the Kennells Ed Nan

Well, I'm getting ready to go to church and here's where I am right now. Please excuse the mess. Garage is going to be a wreck!

With Mrs. Sailor out shopping, I thought that I would get "Cisco" to drag the splitter and start tackling the tree that I had cut down last month. I should have waited a day or two though as the rain yesterday softened the ground. Hopefully, having a bit less of the tree canopy next Spring will allow some additional grass to grow. A male red-bellied Woodpecker was out at the same time. It looked like he did pretty good foraging at that tree. .

Well, it's finally alive! I'm going to have to adjust the carb due to the free flowing exhaust. I took it for a few runs around the yard. I took a quick video of it running. What do I need to do? Cut the fuel back a little? I'll try to post again sometime tomorrow. Merry Christmas everyone!!!

Sorry Fred, I gotta decline. I don't dabble in politics. I could supply the Crazy Horse pope mobile for the Prez. He will have to be less than 15" wide to fit in the cockpit though.

God is great... gives you just what you need.

ADDICTION....we don't have no stinking Addiction!! We are on a mission from God!!

You forgot to say..."and the Reindeer are stuffed". MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL HERE ON RED SQUARE.

Who, me? Who, me? I should be an official Wheel Horse addiction sponsor and life coach! Of coarse everyone would be divorced and broke but on the bright side, imagine all of the epic tractor collections! I'll PM Karl to see if he'll ordain me!

WOWOW!!! That is Fantastic !! I have GOT to get us one o' them !!! HAHAHA!!! She says she's SO Happy you all "egg on" this obsession ... but she's not sure you're being very helpful. But she is Pretty Impressed with the backhoe !! She also says I'm "not allowed" to get to know @wallfish ...

Got a $500 stipend from the school system first time ever for Christmas. Looks like it came at a good time!

I know there must be others who are getting a kick out of busting those Christmas bulbs running across the top of the screen. My wife thinks I've lost my mind because I keep refreshing the page so I can bust em again lol. I'm easily entertained I guess. Merry Christmas to all.

Paul, thought I had found a good project for the 10hp I got from you, but this did it in! It was a workhorse 1100 with the wrong Briggs that I wanted to build something to suit myself with. Oh well, that's how it goes. Waiting on header paint to dry then bolt up the reworked exhaust. More later...

Dell, let me know if you need a Kohler. Call me Santa Claus.

And you never will..... !

It's on my 520-8. Just need 2 braces and a new belt!!

Is that the "Mission Impossible" theme I hear playing in the background? You can do it

The closest thing I’ve found to therapy is down in the basement and most of the time that just gets me in trouble ! If you’re brave enough you could join in on a Skype group talk .... . Hours of fun especially trying to figure out what the Brits are saying ..... it’s a hoot ! Making friends with people with one common interest all over the world. I still can’t believe that a little forum called did that for me ....

Best of luck with that predator, I'm assuming you'll not see this until after Christmas but it'll pur right to life and give you trouble free happiness! The 22 horse on my wood splitter is the best thing I've done to the machine yet.

I appreciate your help but these ideas have a couple ups and downs for me. 1.) Magic shed... I LIKE that one and may try it. 5.) . Then Run for the hills.... Look at our pic in Craig's post. 1 Me = 2 Her . THERE IS NO WAY I'm out-running her. And... She already has a set of tools. That's fair. I like that you're an equality-with-attachments kinda guy.

Well I just got this one about a month ago , really don't want to cut the hood , I was thinking dropping down the frame where the motor sits , I was just wondering if anyone else ever put one in a RJ , heres a picture of it when I picked it up

That sort of eliminates a whole bunch of us!

Perfect. Thanks Craig!

Poor thing... deserves a blanket.

Now, if Ya'll notice who Eric Hollered at for info & Missing a dozen more give or take ! Its always just us, a New Club ? Crazy Horse Club & Ed K is the President, AMC Vice, BRF Dam Clown

Just...don't drink his tea.

Humm...I can see this guy getting you into a lot of trouble Eric. http://www.wheelhorseforum.com/profile/658-wallfish/?do=content&type=gallery_image&change_section=1

HEAT!

Well... I got a lot of great suggestions from all of you and I think this one is the Best plan so far. Now, she and I both are very practical-minded people so I really do need to Justify a purchase. I/we couldn't possibly be taking the time mid-task to change out attachments so each attachment shall have it's own tractor. 1. Log & trailer puller. 2. Snow & Dozer plow. *please note at this time the above could be potentially be divided further for a total of 4. (what if I need to pull a log WHILE attached to the utility trailer??) 3. Mid-mount grader. 4. Loader. ^^^^^^^^^ those are an easy sell. Other possibilities (not needed or justifiable now but we're planning for the future here) include but are Not limited to: 5. Rototiller. 6. Garden Plow. Backhoe!! Anybody ever put a backhoe on a wheelhorse??? Oh my this is bad... very bad indeed.

She says NO ! But... I read a lot that my condition is contagious .

We could be doing worst things than buying more 's. My little lady is a keeper because she actually helps feed my addiction. Life is grand

I really like @wallfish ‘s prescription. i will say that a life changing event like professional job relocation can put the disease into remission. But if your pretty certain your your situation is stable, why fight it....just follow Wallfish’s plan:-)

The big guy's on his way... https://www.noradsanta.org/ http://www.cnn.com/2017/12/24/politics/norad-santa-tracker-christmas/index.html (CNN)The US military command that is charged with protecting the airspace for North America is on alert this Christmas weekend for a man with a white beard and a red suit. The North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) is preparing to track a sleigh and eight tiny reindeer around the world as it heads for US airspace Sunday night. NORAD said in a statement that starting at 2:01 a.m. ET on December 24, the public can access its official Santa Tracker to watch Santa Claus prepare for his voyage. Once Santa takes flight, the public can track his whereabouts and access NORAD's "Santa Cams" as he journeys around the world to bring joy to good boys and girls. President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump will participate in phone calls, the White House said. Starting at 6 a.m. ET on Christmas Eve, the public can also call 1-877-HI-NORAD (1-877-446-6723) and speak live with NORAD trackers. People stuck in the car on the way to Grandmother's house, and with an OnStar subscription, can access the tracker by hitting their OnStar button. Marine Col. Bob Brodie of the 601st Air Operations Center said fighter jets will "fly along (Santa's) wing" in a "close escort," and that the center will "monitor him with our satellites and even have infrared trackers to follow Rudolph." The Santa Tracker program began in 1955 because of a mistake in a Colorado Springs newspaper advertisement from Sears Roebuck & Co. The Sears ad misprinted the telephone number for children to call Santa. The phone number published was actually for the commander in chief's operations hotline at the Continental Air Defense Command (CONAD), which was NORAD's predecessor. Col. Harry Shoup On December 24, 1955, Air Force Col. Harry Shoup was on duty, and instead of hanging up on countless children that night, Shoup checked the radar and updated the eager children on jolly old Saint Nick's location. That 1955 misprint and Shoup's actions started a 62-year tradition that is made possible today by volunteers and corporate sponsors who bear the expense.

What did I do to deserve this cruel and unusual punishment you're giving me? I got a C160 being delivered here in a couple weeks.... now I need more stuff!!

YES! YES! Excellent idea !!! As long as it's "High-test" we should be fine.

Perfect fit!

My daughter was out taking pictures this morning and took a picture of the Toro. I thought it looked cool. Have a Merry Christmas everyone.

Both of mine are just 3/4 spindles with the support brace added. The rims are different and accept a larger wheel bearing. The HD spindles also came factory on the 418-C.

That's betr then BRF !

Sounds like we're talking custom here Jim, would doubt iwithout some mods as in hood cutting or a short pan if one is available for a 161 and then would be close.......regardless if you attempt it

Well Michele says i stare at all the & Her Rear the same so she knows where my mind is ! I may as well mount a Marlin Perkins seat out front of the 1054, She can sit their & Rustle horse at BIG SHOW with me, Sorry Jim, your gonna have to sit this 1 out !

Went to an auction last Saturday, called my wife and said guess what is here, a wheel horse loader. Then I called her back and said merry Christmas it's on it's way home lol. She said seriously, I said yup lol. Got it mounted today

No known cure! Every time I thin the “herd” I find another one I just gotta have. My max at one time was about 15 machines. One year I decided to reduce my collection to 4....got down to 6 and could never get below that 🤔.

@ebinmaine There is no cure . Possible ways to reduce comments or "the stare" from She Who Must be Obeyed 1. Magic shed like AMC Rules 2. Large storage shed with dark corners 3.Large Tarp to cover recent purchases. 4. Store in friends shed or garage. 5. Purchase one for your honey and include set of tools . Give to her on a special occasion. Then Run for the hills.

..... NNOOOOPE !!! Like walking in to your doctors feeling great and he sends your right to critical care. How did Eddie Murphy put it “ it’s like herpes you carry it around for life like old luggage “ . Once you buy a Horse and find it’s over , done , finished , no turning back , terminal . Karl really should put a warning label on the top of the page. Sorry Eric you might as well order one these from @Vinylguy and join the rest of us !

Nothing short of death by natural.........or unnatural causes. Yeah........the site name could be: Wheel Horse Fanatics Enablers They would have to show documented proof of being a legal souse or common law significant other to be certified for membership.
