Hi all here is my latest tractor which I ploughed with at the Scottish ploughing at the weekend then brought it home on the sunday hope you like i love it it now complete's my set

Yep...worked for me.

I collected the Bolens this afternoon. Here's a photo, albeit a poor one, of the tractor on the back of my pickup. I will take some photos when I unload it in the next few days.

Morning all, as you know yesterday was shack contents moving day, and what a long day it was!! I didn't take too many photo's as we were a bit busy, but here's a few.. My "extended bed" Saxon trailer with the first load.. The trailer being loaded up with a heavier load.. The shack looking a bit emptier.. The moving crew.. well, most of them.. Pete, Rob and Chris.. The other helper known as Mr Pickles did a runner as soon as the camera came out I will get some photo's of the empty shack, but here's a couple of the slightly full new workshop.. I've got a bit of sorting out to do me thinks So, a big THANK YOU to Chris, Pete, Rob and Mr Pickles for all your help yesterday, I couldn't of done it without your help

Just make sure no idiot un-plugs the drill when drilling upside down. It has happened to me.

Taken shape Nigel, have to have a drive of it tomorrow After you've made the coffee !!

A fellow member gave me the nod on this little engine on the bay, nobody bid on it and I won it for the starting price (£31). As a few of my Wheelhorse's have this engine, I thought it would be a handy spare

Hello All, Today I said good bye to my 4 wheeled cart, which freed up enough room in the shed to take my two lawn rangers from the patio and put them into a dry place ... well its not 100% water tight in there... whilst out there I got all the tractors, engines, mowers and machines I have running, too keep everything moving and oiled up. Anything that was on the patio or out and about I've now put it all away and under cover in the shed for the winter... I know its early being only October but with college now by the time I get back home its dark and cant get out there and do anything,.. So with that, I decided to get the raider 10 set up and ready for winter duties I got some 12 mm thick rubber matting this summer knowing i would use it next time i got my snow plow out instead of the tyre we had to cut up last year I think it looks far better with this rubber skirt than the tyre..... Today I got the plow fitted onto the raider 10......here's to hoping....that's if we even get snow this winter... here is some pics.... I forgot how much of a tight fit it was..... Whats your guys set ups going to be this winter?

My kids will play... No.2 dug his C-121 out on leaf sweeping duties last week and sent me the pics when I was at work.

You wont find any trannys,,,,,ive got them all

Got this yesterday, its an O & R engine on a Tarpen rotavator, another Tarpen machine that I have been waiting to acquire for a long time...

Nice bit of kit

That looks tidy !

That looks rather nice.

That looks like a well built bit of kit Andrew, I bet you can't wait to try it out

Brilliant find mate well done

not far its in hawkhurst

Got home tonight after a day on the road and rushed out to the shed and looked underneath, no oil leaks

If we get any snow Charlie, my set up will be extra logs stacked in doors, and my big cup

You know, Nigel, I can picture wife saying to husband, "I want to go to the garden centre." Husband replies, "Certainly dear and I can see what madcap idea has come out of that workshop now."

fired her up today no water leaks brakes ok clutch ok

And here's the Champ generating set donated to the collection at Isfield yesterday, it just needs the pull cord on the cowling sorted out...

Had a bit of spare time this afternoon so I refilled the tranny up with oil after i found the bleed screw to let the oil in, fired her up and surprise surprise it works. took a while to get going and purge the air out, but seems ok, well it goes backwards and forwards. next job to put the wheels back on and test it outside. (makes my eyes water with it running it in the shed)

And the video....

you have to use diet coke angus it makes the piston shrink

Hi Guy's, sorry I've been a bit slow getting the Tractorfest videos sorted.. But a start has been made.. So I don't upset my ISP by using too much bandwidth I can only upload 1 video a day.. So here's the first, Day one in the arena.. Thank you to Ben for the camera duties
