Relief valve or better yet electric clutch ala say an Electro 12! Wired to a pressure switch with an unloader valve just like the shop one. 

Wow, Uncle Jim is smarter than he looks today!

In it's current form, it can't.

 

That brass fitting may very well be wide open which means it isn't an issue until it's covered with something... Like a hose...

My thoughts exactly stops at the weakest link 🤣

[Ed Kennell 38,230]

The most unusual implement was the chicken plucker.   Sorry, I couldn't find a picture.

 

Here's my most useful.....the Mad Max tiller.

Yes sir. That is the same broom that I have.

[WHX?? 48,833]

Bet you could use that post hole digger for yer horse fences Krys!

Hey Dan @Achto by chance is that your broom? 

Yes. please!

I'd like the rake, the sprayer, the broadcast spreader, and the post hole digger!

 

Interesting that the air compressor originally had a tank!  Wonder if those ever come up for sale?

 

Seriously, if anyone has one of those rakes, let me know!!

They aren't exactly common. 

It's quite likely your own compressor was not originally a tractor implement but something someone built in the past.

Awww... .c'mon, I was feeling kinda special for a minute.

Well you've asked to tough questions, most interesting, and fun to use.

 

As far as fun to use, any attachment that results in running a Wheel Horse is fun to use.

But here are some truly favorites:

I love the custom 2 seaters!

Tub Carts are just meant to use to pull grandkids around on Sunday afternoon

 

Pushing dirt, especially with the center mount grader blade, it's just fun

did I say I like to push dirt.  someday I will find a front end loader to put on a garden tractor.  My old Oliver at the farm is a Beast and I'm dog tired by the time I run it for a full day at the farm.

This is another of my someday builds and its getting a little closer.  Tractor shows and ice cream makers just go together.  Can you say Margaritas...by the gallon..or five!

 

Now my nomination for most Unique!

I know its not on a Wheel Horse, but this Hawk Bilt ground Saw (trencher) was the subject in the latest Lawn and garden Tractor Magazine

I've been told I'm special many many times but I'm not sure if it's in quite the same way that you're thinking of.

2” hitches front and back for pulling trailers and the SL&WHN RR...

that is a neat machine!

 

 

what did you do to that poor muffler?!

[Tractorhead 9,064]

Not that much Attachements, because of just one Horse for now... 😎

 

but all with multipurpose use options by Quick attach.

 

Like the Snowplow incl. Frame selfmade (but lent on Original except the tilt mechanism) 

 

 

The Broom to cleanup the Driveway

 

the rear hitch Combo to quick Attache different Things

 

 

 

for quick mount i.eg of an rear rake after mow

 

 

the original Mowerdeck (exchanged the Spindle bearings and freshned little up)

but still have the old belts on, because they last.

 

The Doubleaction plow to prepare first

 

 

what is pure Fun in Service

And the self propelling Tiller to finish and decrumbling the soil

 

 

 

and last but not least my lightweight mini trailer with it’s just 12 Kilo built from a collapsed Pavillion,

where the Original Wheelhorse Tyres are the heaviest Parts.

 

 

Some other things just in plan or even in Build like the Snowblower

but this is delayed to next year before i need it.

it will be showed if i can continue.

 

[ebinmaine 67,657]

@Tractorhead

Lots of awesome work there Steve.

 

Don't have it? Build it.

 

Use what you have on hand...
