What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?

[squonk 38,965]

When you buy a new screwdriver from Snap on, Mac ect. they say "not to be used as a chisel. "

 

Started getting the shot outer axle bearings out of @rjg854 's 5025 transmission. I have all kinds of chisels, punches, prybars nothing would touch them. Then I got out my little $1 Horror Fright screwdriver I've had about 15 years and with a hammer they peeled right out.

Leighton and I took a SNACtor ride today.  I figured I might as well plow a little strip for a food plot!

@Stormin how many points in a "ploughing match?  @Pullstart 

 

[Pullstart 59,744]

@squonk @Stormin extra bonus special points for the natural curves of the ploughing today!  The idea is that long narrow strips for the food plot will feel more comfortable for the deer.  Fluff their pillow before I eat em!

[Pullstart 59,744]

Decided to filler’ and keeper’ running!

 

Only pulled one Uncle Jim and left the plow in the ground and dropped the throttle… instead of raise the plow and hold the throttle….

Yeah?? I want to like it lol. I wanted to keep the Squareish look with the muffler. Maybe it's the placement of it not being foward enough???

If you're interested in the baby stack look try a Cub muffler or Gravely muffler -  turned up.

Here’s what I did for Rylee’s Commando 800 “Screamin’ Jimmy” in 2018.  I cut the back foot rest bar off a C series frame, adapted it to the Commando frame, and notched a foot rest to fit another pedal.  If she ever chooses to put it back to stock, we can remove the pedal and foot rest, and cover the second bar with another foot rest.  I told her that some day when she teaches her kids to drive it, she can put the second pedal kit back on.

 

I often joke that I was born with my butt pretty close to the ground.  I am 5’6” on an average day,  if I’m standing proud, I might squeak by at 5’7”.  I can drive it comfortably with the second pedal just fine.

 

 

Nice! Very professional!! 👍

I have some wheels to paint around here… might just try the playing card method instead of the blue painters tape/masking method I always use 

[Sparky-(Admin) 19,579]

   C-105 not charging…temporarily rigged up a used regulator from my stock pile and she was charging again. Then I attacked the horrible task of swapping out the regulator properly.  
   Those 1/4-20 nuts behind the reg are an absolute pain in the butt to get to. In the end I won and she is good to go! 
  I did notice that under where the regulator mounts it’s all painted? So I wire wheeled the paint off where it mounts and added another negative or ground wire.

Apples' first mow at the new home! Wet thick grass had the blades bogging down...brain goes "gonna have to tighten that deck idler...sigh"...Then about 2 rounds around the yard later..."Well heck ya dummy this thing has mule drive!" ....twist twist golden! Mrs. Lovin her new Horse!

[ebinmaine 63,214]

This morning Trina decided to put a tube in the trailer wheel/tire for her go-to pulled rig. The 1976/77 Ohio Steel trailer painted to match Millie.  

She used a 3/4" bolt held in the bench vise to keep hold on it. 

Got that all done and popped it on.  

 

After that BBT and the Momma moved some wood and did other yahd putterin'. 

 

 

They moved and stacked this pile. Around 6.5 ft wide x 5 ft tall.  

[Wheel Horse 3D 3,622]

Just scored this Agrifab trailer! Pretty good size And we also have a nice Ohio steel one a little heavier but plastic

It works for me Mike.    Really easy with these rims that have a high lip.

Looks like maybe a 10 cubic foot.  

Clean her up a bit and that'll last for decades.  

 

We have a 17 cube version of that same thing.  

 

I've added a road type ball hitch to it. Very strong and easier to switch over.

Today I put my new Wheel Horse belt on my commando 8 “Archie”. I tried to roll my grandparents front yard and it slipped on tiny hills.Friday I also dragged my baseball teams home field with Archie and I’m gonna do it again tomorrow before our first game of the season.
