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

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.

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.

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.

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.

      Abrasive flap wheel. Install?
      By Oldskool
      Hey guys I have been given a box of these flap wheels.
      5.25" x 1.5" with a 1" arbor hole.
      I instantly thought great I can put one on my bench grinder. 
      Nope!    Not that simple.
      The arbor size is different, and it's to wide to fit inside the the guard.
      I thought of removing the guard but would like to have it there.
      I guess I could make an arbor adapter and a spacer for the guard,and a new tool rest,etc. More time involved then first thought.
       
      Does anyone use these, and if so what do you have it on?

      Hello fellas. I bought this 211-3 tractor. I have no clue how this mower deck comes off. I need to fix some areas on the deck, as well as replace a clutch cable. I can't seem to find pictures of a complete deck for this model as it should be. Need help.

      Custom golf cart
      By Oldskool
      I've had some stuff laying around for a while now. I've had some ideas kicking around my head for a while as well.
      Well they met each other a few days ago.
      This is going to be a camp buggy of sorts. 
      Like any of my other builds I would appreciate any input anyone want to donate.
       
      The base is an 1982-88 Yamaha G1 golf cart.
