Hi all, I have made some progress, I have removed all the rust, and painted the Horse The quality of finish isn't too bad and I have added the Wheelhorse decals (thanks Mark!). She needs the seat recovering and some engine/electrical work,and the wheels painting- once that is done I will upload a video. But for now, here is a pic!

Got a bit more done today. Making enough bits for three more. Top and bottom plates cut and drilled. Arms cut out. End of arms roughed out with slitting disc to fit bosses. Finished off with grinding disc. Bosses ready to cut in half.

Hello all I am new to the group,i have bought my father in law a ride on mower as he is staring to struggle doing his big garden by hand.I am not made of money so had to get a fixer up and come across a westwood gazelle w11. It was in a sorry state but I have spent the last 4 weeks taking back to bare metal and powdercoating every part , replacing every nut and bolt. My question is I have spent all this time doing the restoration I didn't think to ask the question are these any good at cutting grass?

I Get a regular visit from several Foxes/Vixens. This one was in particular- http://home.bt.com/ It kept turning up and eating the Windfalls, which by April when this was taken, had fermented and contained a fair amount of Alcohol. Got to a point where it could hardly walk- Couldn't establish if it was Drunk or Injured initially, but turned out to be the latter. Got the RSPCA on to it and they came to collect it. Didn't put up much of a fight, as it had an injured right Hind Leg and an infected left front Paw. I paid them for it's collection and treatment. 3 months later I was informed it was released into a field local to me Firing Running on all Four !. Got another really scruffy Mange one now. He even sat down behind me a few feet away when I was washing the Car the other week.. nonchalant as hell!. I'll try a catch a Pic of it next time.

Yep!, I agree, good job done. I was close to doing on of mine Red n Black a few years ago.

Nice job. Nowt wrong with that paint job.

Hello all thanks for the coments sorry about the delay in replying I didn't get any notifications. I have just finished the deck and fitted it today. It shakes when I engage it. I have adjusted the tension and it's seems a little better ....any suggestions would get appreciated:)

I caved in and thought I'd put a finishing spray coat over the Deck Shell to lose some of the brush marks in the paint. Ordered Custom filled Aerosols from the same place as the Tin of Enamel and same RAL Colour number with the anticipation it would be a pretty close match . 1 can was packed already damaged and not in transit- Yes, they ship them with the Nozzles fitted as well !!!. Delivered to me on the 20th at 1400 intact with no external damage. The attempt to make it look like damage in transit failed, as they forgot to include the missing bits of the Cap, the paint was solid and no paint or fumes inside the packaging...... Oh, and their response was 'They can guarantee it was not packed like that' . With a difference of 10 grammes between the Cans as well, I find the colour match is miles out on the Trial ass'y- .....So I have had to repaint the Brackets and to do the rest of the Carrier Frame as well . Decals are on order, as is the Spindle Drive Belt.
