Never saw that before either.

That's something we could do at the big show!

Is it $5 a man and winner take all?

 

And the mafia is the judge panel, so they don’t sandbag us rookies!

Looks like fun.

Kind of like any good game. Easy to learn but difficult to master

It ain't as easy as it looks ..takes lots of eye/hand cordination ...guess that takes most of you :occasion-clown:s out of the running! Dan and Mike @prondzy were the big money winners ..... :lol: Mike had picked up a nice 877 at the show that Dan shoulda bought for me and was a fast little tractor! :)

I'm definitely late to the party here, but just saw this thread. Thanks everyone for the support and once again Dan, your rat tractor is just awesome. 

Every issue I have dedicated space for a WH exclusive article. Typically I try to stock up on tractors and stories at the big show. That gives me a chance to write articles from people outside of just New England. I plan to do the same this June. I have enough material to get me thru the winter and to the next show. I think you'll really like the upcoming Nov/Dec issue as well - another fellow RS member!

Here I  go again ... what was that tune by Whitesnake ??? 

This time we got our one and only @Zeek on the cover of the Rolling  ..... well maybe not on the Stones cover but sure is a nice tractor!

Congrats Tom and if you get tired of wandering down south like a gypsy come on up to Wisconsin. I will put you up in a nice condo with a well equipped shop to turn out more... I know ......it's Wisconsin but that's just geography.

Nice job @grnlark :handgestures-thumbupright:

      I’m building a lowered 300 series wheelhorse. So far it’s a combination of 3 scrap tractors. 
      the frame, trans and tins are from a GT2500 anniversary special given to me by a neighbor with a trashed Briggs. The Kohler M12 is from a junkyard 312 that was roached. The parts tractor I’m using for the build was another older 312. I’ve got the k301 in the garage. The trans was toast. Both axles wallowed out keyways and 1 axle actually broken. 
      Anyway! I needed a project and a toy to putt around the neighborhood. I couldn’t find any other posts on how to do the whole thing. I’m trying to keep it cheap using stuff I have on hand and looking as “stock but cooler” as possible. So here we go. 
      I’ll update this as I go along.
