1978 C-141 drive pulley routing
Bill D replied to MainelyWheelhorse's topic in Transmissions and transaxles
If you have a drive belt release you need a lower belt guide. My GT1800 has one. -

Dimensions needed for Mid Mount Grader Blade Bracket
BradKahler posted a topic in Implements and Attachments
I'm building a mid mount grader blade for my B80 and I've found a lot of information but I'm lacking a couple of dimensions and an angle. Any chance one of you might have access to one of these and be willing to provide the needed information? Thanks! Brad -
1978 C-141 drive pulley routing
MainelyWheelhorse replied to MainelyWheelhorse's topic in Transmissions and transaxles
@squonk It should be correct. It is an Amazon pulley that is the supposedly correct 5.25 diameter for the hydro transmission. I have a 8 speed engine pulley if needed. The 5.25 diameter was info I got from the forum. The belt seems to fit in the groove fine and hasn’t been popping off like the pulley is too shallow yet. @pfrederi The hood stand is what was on it when I got it. I assume it’s original as it looks like it’s been on there a very long time. Since I brought it back from a dead parts tractor I wasn’t sure what was still there and gone. That’s why I figured I’d check here. @Bar Nuthin Ok, I’ll engage it and see what changes. I might need a belt as it was on it when I got it and seemed in good condition. That’s why I figured I’d check things out before mowing season. It doesn’t seem to slip just bounces and makes noise. @peter lena I greased the idler pulley that’s what spurred me to check the belt routing, the PTO isn’t hooked up to the engine I still need to drill the holes in the engine pulley for the bolts for it. The goal was to get it running and moving for @JCM’s event last September then go back and fix the small stuff later. @953 nut thanks for the pic. I was closer than I thought. Luckily it’s only two guides that have to come off. Thanks for the help! -

American iron, Crescent 30 Inch Bandsaw
bc_gold replied to bc_gold's topic in non tractor related discussion
Finally got over my gold fever and my desire to travel. Planning to use recycled wood on all my projects which well display in natural colors, water glass finish has many benefits, none toxic cures from carbon dioxide in atmospheric air or via gas injection. Best part I'm able to make my own from ball milled glass. if you were cutting an expensive exotic wood, Using water glass (sodium silicate) to bind sawdust creates a rigid, eco-friendly, and cost-effective material suitable for woodturning, similar to dense particle board or firebrick. It works best when combined with high pressure, as sodium silicate binds by filling voids and setting as it dries, rather than curing chemically like epoxy. Water glass (sodium silicate) wood finish is a durable, penetrating sealer that acts as a fire-resistant, water-repellent coating . It works by curing deep within the wood grain, creating a natural bond without a plastic surface film. Often used on softwoods, it can be applied in 2-3 coats, with fully cured surfaces being highly resistant to moisture, such as on wooden bowls. -
Highly regulated virtually everywhere in NY state (especially if it looks like a more powerful firearm) plus I worry that a dog owner might well take umbrage at their beloved (territorial and aggressive) Rover being BBed (we are a litigious society).

I was shown the spring clamp trick years ago and it has helped keep me sane during blade changes! 😉 Hoping the new-to-you tool will serve you well and give you lots of satisfaction. -

American iron, Crescent 30 Inch Bandsaw
bc_gold replied to bc_gold's topic in non tractor related discussion
The with a blade removed the upper band wheel has freedom to move up or down that cantilevered weight performs an amazing balancing act, very similar to the sash weight used on the blade guide. The upper band wheel image below once the blade has been removed, what ever position the wheel has remains fixed, whereas the saw I've purchased is allowed to float. I knew nothing of these oddity's. to me it was just a large band saw, due to it's size and footprint struggled with making the decision to purchase. -

Where I live we have MUP's (multiuse paths). A white line is painted down the middle. One side is designated for walking and the other side for bikes. Literally 90% of the people out walking walk in the bike lane, and they will not move over to the correct side when bikes approach. So far as dogs, I carry a BB pistol.

856 heavily corroded hubcap removal advice
CasaytheMann replied to FLtractor's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
You could also use a heat gun to heat the hubcap up some, then use a flat (wonder) pry bar to pop it off. Using a rubber mallet to tap the pry bar might help too. -

The small horizontal wheel used to adjust blade tracking. -
They were the ones that came with it. About 1/4 inch diameter as I recall.

Some pics Angle iron and sq tube 3/4 rod welded to a square plate that you can bolt the caster to. I had pneumatic tires but the kept going flat or ruptured the side walls. Using old deck wheels now. They sink in more when it is soft but at least they hold up. I live on a hill and have near constant breeze my annual sweep the rocks back on to the road should take an hour or so but usual spread over a couple days waiting for the wind to die or be in the right direction even so the thatch it picks up blows all over mostly back on me. It is 48"wide The electric lift is glacially slow
