Norm is right, it's a snap gauge, set the jaws to max/min. Worked piece has to be within the two.

That's a nice tractor, bought from near dunmow I guess, I know Nigel well... Has he still got the cub?

Really admire the pain you go through to keep these beauties running. You don't have much luck at the moment

Those axles just flip round 180 deg, they are just bolted to the chassis

After a day of painting, cleaning and making fiddly linkages (not much room in there now) I now have working levers Linkages have equal throw, that's why it looks a little complicated. One crank is 2x longer, but the spool linkage halves this to keep things balanced. Dash decal done too.

Hi, Duro HF255 I think, 23x10.50-12

Nice conversion, started life as a Westwood

Nice work buddy, glad I could help

Seen that before - it's very ingenious

yeah, feb is a little late for snow. It's not like the good old days...

nice wheels - can't beat a tractor in the supermarket car park

nice work fella!

I am actually colour blind...

Mom stickers was a little vague....

Hehe, loving it. Great to be of service and catch up with you. Shame I missed grumpy

Nice collection of toys!

you need a reasonable 10W40 mineral oil. The later decals and manuals instruct that the auto fluid is replaced with engine oil.

For doing valve collets....

That's a great find!

awesome!

Tidy little umbrella that

it's keeping them clean Norm, would be a nightmare in mud - plus they aren't designed to run out of line either I thought of cogged v with perhaps some grooves or notches in the pulleys to stop it slipping just not enough room James I've turned the sides of the sprockets down to allow a greater angle. I think running worn and loose with idlers is the way to go.I ran it again at the weekend and it did better, but it is an extreme angle i'm asking it to do I've just finished 4 years of development!!!!!Brief update... Started with a vengeance on the hydraulics. Done the levers Shame every fitting I have is different I think I'll end up changing everything over to jic, as can't adapt the spool valve to metric

it is thanks, it's a good test ground well there is an invite just let me know when you want to pop down a think the weight helps you've got me thinking Doug well if you bring Noddy up... I have thought about life preservation...

What a great collection, they are great to load on a trailer as with no weight in the back they Buck like a mad horse. Combined with the tiller steering getting them on trailer is interesting as you say

C4 has felt neglected lately and last weekend I decided to test its limits. It did pretty well, I think the limit is my own survival instinct
