    The Workshop moving Thread

    Thanks Andrew, it was a shack decorating pressie from Ben Hi Iain, yep getting organized now though I've not found enough space for everything to have a home yet.. Some stuff may have to stay boxed up for a little while longer. I'm going to try and keep the new place tidy.. It's so nice to be able to get around the big bench without having to move or climb over stuff as it was in the old shack.. Well chaps, a couple of big milestones were passed today.. The first being I finally wired in my little radio to some big speakers via and old stereo thingy so now I no longer have to listen to tinny sounding rock music from the DAB radios little speaker and I now have the sound power to drown out Nigel's singing The second milestone we shall get to in a bit.. The workshop is now about 85% done.. Ok, I still need to bolt the lathe motor and pulley down.. An organized bench.. Quite possibly the tidiest and cleanest this big bench will ever look.. It's nice to have the bench space to bolt my sheet metal folder on to And as the big project bench was looking tidy I thought I'd take a few photo's of it as well And the second big milestone?? Well with the workshop being 85% done it means it's done enough to be operational.. (The remaining 15% will be done as it's needed).. So the only thing to do was to have an opening ceremony, for which the local royalty was called in to do the honors... It gives me great pleasure to introduce the Mayor of Mower Land "I pronounce this workshop open"!!

    More bolens traction

    A few years ago I brought a set of rear wheels & turf tyres for my bolens tractors on the bay They have been sat in the shed for years. I thought to myself I will fit a set of agri grip tyres so I have a set for my 1886. The other month, these poped up on the bay, brand new so I brought them & had them shipped down to me. At the weekend after buying some new tubes, I fitted them. Good when you own a tyre machine Just need some time to fit them to the tractor

    I have a 1010 which the smaller version with a vertical crank engine. They made these tractors from really good steel and as such they last well. Iain

    Courtesy of Usedtoolman I finally finished the project. Got the foot pegs added and got the engine squared away. I rode it last night. It was a once in a lifetime experience. Believe me, once was enough for someone my age!! It is fast and the steering is quick.

    Hi all I am at the moment fitting a mid mounted mower to my tractor it was made for the Gutbrod,also the tank and pump fitted to the mudguard is a hand pump made to lift the rear linkage it works better than a wire rope and a hand lever as you can now add weights to the plough if and when required Hope you like

    Does not that apply to most workshops? T'Other Arf says you need danger money to go in mine.

    Looks like you are getting very organised, with everything having it's place. A far cry from my workshop especially at the moment.
