If the plow works that's fine. If not, also fine. I'll just either hold on to it for a different piece of property or resell it to the next lucky person. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maxwell-8 4,277 #14402 Posted January 27, 2022 Not much going on lately. But found the weakness of the blackhoods. They somehow always seem to attract stuff. More then other Wheel Horses 1 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

More then other Wheel Horses I wouldn’t call it a weakness… I’d say it is more of a multi-tool utility, which allows you to take a workbench / storage shelf with you wherever you and the Black Hoods go…! 1 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now If you had one out in the woods??!? Better than doing it on the tailgate or a stump.... Just sayin .... Problem is I have this real problem about drilling holes in my tractors. When I have had to do it I say a prayer to the gods and tell them Dan made me do it and hopefully there wrath comes down on him. BTW I have been known to collect the drill chips of 50 year old sheet metal off a horse and put them in a place of honor right along aside @19richie66 s nubbies. ....

TJ5208 1,824 #14419 Posted January 28, 2022 Switch from one hitch to another. let me tell you about the WD-40 I sprayed in there it'll come right back out now. Don't worry the other bolt wasn't stuck but I just want to make sure this hitch pin don't freeze up. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A good match in fact. Just get the bugger as HEAVY as you can. Add weight til you can't. Then add more. This weekend will be a perfect test for it. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ebinmaine 67,671 #14423 Posted January 28, 2022 Looks like it's leaning out to see just a hair which means you'll get more, and I'll get a little less. We are forecast at this point for something around 6" or 7". 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
