Achto 28,534 #1 Posted August 2, 2016 (edited) Pictures from the UTC thresheree in Symco Wisconsin. On the show grounds known as Unionville The down town street in Unionville The lumber used to build this mill was all cut with the saw mill on the show grounds. Making flour inside the mill Some night time entertainment on their outdoor stage The steel bridge that was moved to the grounds from a near by highway after it was decommissioned by the state. The tractor on top is a real tractor not a lighted cut out. PeacemakerJack and his son turning some ground on GhostRider. Jack was nice enough to let me do a little plowing with this sweet machine. Thanks again Jack! My line up of garden tractors This Roof Palomino was very cool. For those who don't know this is a garden tractor. Attachments include 60" deck, push blade & more. Definitely one of my bucket list tractors. Ford & doodle bugs were the feature. This 1920's Ford is running a silo filler Some Doodle Bugs Very nice work on this MF Sign does the talking on this one This started out life as a GE electric tractor. Uses a speed increasing gear box to the rear end, and a dead mans clutch A little fun time with my Rat Rod Suburban. Like most shows you can't get pic's of every thing. Check out the UTC post in General shows & events for more pics. Edited August 2, 2016 by achto 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have attended the Florida Flywheelers events before and love their facility, but this may be even nicer. Calendar shot for sure! Thanks for taking us along. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

T-Mo-(Moderator) 4,539 #5 Posted August 2, 2016 Ah, plowing. Love it. I usually plow with my JD, but I want to set up the 416-8 for plowing this fall, if I can find a plow event close by. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I usually plow with my JD, but I want to set up the 416-8 for plowing this fall, if I can find a plow event close by. You gotta do it! One of the great things that I hear continually at these plow days in the last year that I've owned my 314 is, "I didn't know you could plow with a WH!" That is why I aim to make one "NASTY" mochine out of GhostRider. If something doesn't hold up, I'll build it tougher (although I'm currently impressed with its factory build quality) if it doesn't have enough power, I'll put in a bigger motor (every time I've put the plow in the ground--power was the least of my problems) and if someone is incredulous about it being a wheel horse they better keep an eye out behind them, the GhostRider is coming! I think it is time to see more WH tractors at plow days. Hydro or GD, these things were built to work. Dan, thanks for the great pics. I'm relishing every minute with my son Zach on my leg while driving. He is my youngest and in a few short years he'll be driving Blackbeard instead of riding with me. Then I'll long for the opportunity to have him be little and ride on my leg once more. You captured that moment in time for me. Thanks (I got some dust in my eye!). It it is a great venue and a fun time! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It it is a great venue and a fun time! I seen enough Wheel Horses plowing to know, that they do a pretty good job. I just need to set my 416 up. I have a clevis hitch coming, and I need to find a cheap set of ags and wheel weights, and I'm set. I have a Brinly 10 inch sleeve hitch plow that I used on my Deere GX345, and I know the 416 can handle that pretty well. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
