It is such an amazing build, to say it was pretty much from scratch is such an accomplishment!  Bravo!

Thank you. It was fun and a learning experience. It's not over yet.

I vote for a turbo, then load those pumps up and let it fly!

I think a full hydraulic system upgrade is in its future.

I really hope everything aligns to have that at Owls Head. I'd love to see it.

It will stay as it is until after Owls Head. It runs and moves now so I can load/unload it. I'm not missing it for anything.

I would love to see it also. When is the owls head show?

Should be several of us going.

 

Trina and I will be staying at a campground a bit south of it. Bringing at least two tractors.

 

If you bring a truck or tractor you get in FREE.

Would love to have ya there. It would be nice to have as many members as possible.

Gee I could get in free if I brought my M-37... Only take about 14 hours ...assuming i didn't get rear ended going 40 on the interstate.  OK 45 downhill

Oh yeah, they are so handy! Grrrrreat find!

I have on my list to make a set of wedges that'll let me drive the tractor onto these instead of having to jack it up.

Fronts first and then rears.

Once owning a set there will be all sorts of uses I would imagine

I have 4 pieces, they be one of the best invest ever.

 

Instead just on jacks....

 

 

even without tires you can move your horse simply arround.

 

@Oldskool good price and still easy to store.

maybe also senseful to put the snow drift onto and move arround until next workphase.

That was my thoughts behind it. The only way I can move it inside is to take the chains off. I can spin it easily now but that is it.

New to me roller skates. Best 50 bucks ever spent.  The Y.E.T.I. is getting mothballed for a few months. Till the Owls Head show. Then under the knife for all new hydraulic drive upgrades.

Those definitely are a game changer, especially for something you can’t just roll out of the way.

Oh man that's the easiest that thing has ever moved. One handed. Its like moving a push mower.
