    What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?

    Thanks for posting this. What are the housings made of?
  5. I concentrated on taking pic's of tractors that are not seen very often. Reo tractor These 2 Speedex were built in the same year. Bush Hog Work Bird one of the first zero turns. Shaw lawn mower. Mighty Might Gavely Westchester with a body by Studebaker. Estate tractor Wagner Little Giant John Deere Sweepster. JD's attempt to enter the gulf cart industry. Brillion Explorer Unsure ? Rugg Huffy Hawk Mayrath's with & with out a body.

    Get a TP Tool cabinet, The HF one didn't have enough slope the media would not get back down to be picked up
  7. You need a slot hitch or a Brinly. Just remove the pin, take off the spacers and it will fit right in. Looks like might need a lift cable or rockshaft depending on what you want to do. Not sure how/what is needed for a lift cable for a 160 but everything can be had at https://wheelhorsepartsandmore.com/ You may also have to lose the ball. A Brinly is best for a Brinly field plow. Slot adapters can be had for a slot hitch. I run a slot/draw bar combo on all my horses.

    I often insult this chart when I shred one. Belts_Mower_spindle_and_drive_belt_charts.pdf
  9. I only have a drawbar on both my WH’s. I’d like to have a clevis hitch or something similar to be able to use a plow or other implements even though I don’t have them yet. Trouble is I’m still fairly green to this whole scene so knowing what I need, options available or if it’s even feasible I do not know. I’ve searched a lot on here and see a lot of WH’s with lift cables or manual lifts and slot hitches and I gotta be honest I can’t figure out from pictures what I’d need or how it bolts up. Here’s a pic of the rear of the C160-8, as always any insight is certainly appreciated!

    I just scheduled one of those forgetting that I had a do-it-yourself scope.

    I use a program called Medibang paint, but frankly, I can't really recommend it in 2026 since all of the updates have locked so much behind a paywall, including the ability to use the paint bucket. I use an older version.

    Our 60 gallon 2HP Vertical can keep up with the glass bead unit, struggles to do about an 80% duty cycle on the larger one. The TP Tools gun was one of the cabinet upgrades.
  13. I got started on patching the boy's deck tonight. Of course while I was grinding the welds down to inspect them the neighbor came over to complain that the compressor was too loud and it had "been loud for a really long time". She is a stay at home mom who was trying to sit outside and read, which she can do at almost any time she wants. I work about 50 hours a week and get, maybe, 1.5 hours a day that I can actually work on these projects. Most days its closer to 45 minutes. I finished my grinding, filled in the one spot I found that I missed, and quit for the night because I was ready to be done anyway. I'm hoping the next patch can be cut out with the plasma cutter because it will be much faster, and less air-intensive, and it's supposed to be HOT again tomorrow. The one I did tonight was too far from any edge and I don't have pincer clamps that would reach that far, so I had to use the grinder.
  14. If you want a Cabinet, cut loose with the cash and get a TP Tools cabinet. The money you'll spend on mods on a cheapie ain't worth it. TP also has a better gun, and accessories like foot pedals, carbide nozzles and vacuums. An air compressor that can handle sandblasting is half the battle! https://www.tptools.com/

    Correct. You can go to Toro parts and search by model number to find parts. example

    What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?

    Got a little more done on @Natejc_98 's rig this evening. Trina reinstalled the belt guard and right step. I got the transmission drain plug cleaned out enough to righty tighty / lefty loosey repeat repeat repeat repeat and dropped the nasty fluid. I've seen worse. It'll do with a short hours repeated flush and new fluid again. I also relocated the solenoid wire we were using for testing purposes. We had it laying around and over the gas tank. I got the harness loosened up enough to add it along side the factory taped up set and installed 3 terminals in it. What's left.......? Install hood. Refill transmission and replace shifter boot and drain plug. And.......????

    Lawn master, porter cable, or Massey executive?

    That’s what I was thinking. I appreciate it. Guess when I start tearing it down I’ll have to do the same. Which hopefully will be soon. I’m not even worried about getting the drive train operational as much as I am all the metal work to get the hood back to what it’s supposed to be. The guy that had it chopped the hood and made that box to raise the gas tank.

    Tis my plan, kind of.
  19. I have this one and it works well but like mentioned above there is a lot of waste. I always thought a one-piece old shower would make a good way to catch the media while blasting but have never found one somebody was throwing out.

    Been there, done that. Some mods are better than others but they sure beat the out-of-the-box version.

    we have 2 dedicated blasters. The tabletop unit is for fine work, and uses glass bead media. The larger floor cabinet is from Harbor Freight. Used for general sandblasting - we use coal slag from TSC in that one. Out of the box the HFT floor unit leaves a lot to be desired; we have done about a half dozen upgrades - well woth it. Most are available on YouTube.

    Before cutting that, how about leaving it for like a baseboard.

    This kind of blaster is okay, but there is a lot of waste. Placing a blanket or tarp behind your work helps catch your media. You must wear eye protection . Also, be careful to be sure that you turn off the air and bleed the tank before disconnecting any hose. I learned the hard way just today. I disconnected the pressure hose and there was still 120psi in the tank. I am not going to show how I sanded the back of my hand, just the bandage.
