  2. That is beautiful, hope my wife doesn't see it. I promised her a hoosier cabinet a little smaller than that, gathered a few parts but years slipped by and never did it.
  3. No it is hardly noticeable,I turn it on with a toggle switch and the motor pulls a little bit. With the fans and thermal running it is about 30 amps. The freon pulls a little harder but without those worthless thermal the amp load will be less so it should equal out pretty close. The fun part will be to pull the compressor from the bottom of the motor as I will still need enough amps to run fans on the evaporator and on the condenser and clutch.
  4. I have never even shot a video let alone upload and post.I'll need a kid to film and show me how,probably about 6 year old would know.
  5. Don't stop but slowed down after 70. The 2 decks were 30 inch so that makes 60 and depending on the hitch offset the tractor has 36 inch but 7 feet is about all you can do without skipping a patch and old farmers hate point rows HA HA.
  6. Due to allergies I built a cab that is fairly air tight and makeup air is filtered,it works quite well and I don't have to wear that mask. The frame is thin wall 1inch square tubing and plexiglass and plywood make up the rest. Insulated with fiber board,carpet and spray foam. I have 3 good sized 12 volt thermo units on top with a fan cooling those and fans on the inside and a makeup air fan that pulls outside air through the air cleaner. An auto alternator provides power for the units. The large heatsinks are diodes to keep the 12 volt as a clean signal but the thermal units gradually stop working and after 2 years they get cool enough to collect moisture but that is about all, they are not worth the cost which is a fair amount. I am gathering parts to put in freon unit but not till winter, with all this rain I have to mow every 4 days.
  7. This is made of 2 decks welded together with bedrail frame and wheelchair casters. You would need fairly flat yard because with a wide deck it will bottom out in a ravine. At this time I have an option straight behind or offset drawbar but you have to change the hitch pin to get more offset. This is handy for trimming under bushes but you can also change to get into narrow places. I am in the process of building an electric drawbar to adjust width without getting off my butt.HA HA .The 12 horse is plenty of power for the 2 decks.
  8. I needed a small boat to putter around in and get through lilly pads so this worked out great. Made from a washer tub,several bicycles and lawnmowers. There is a rudder in back and the wheel adjust up and down to keep the right amount in the water regardless of the load,this is a must have if you build something similar. 5 speed tranny and reverse so I can keep the motor at near idle and is quieter that way. A piece of downspout painted to look like a steamboat stack sets it off.The 14 foot flatbottom boat is just right to get through lilly pads and get up into the trees. You will need a motor with a cast iron flywheel if you use a pushmower engine, I have been able to change over from aluminum to iron on some of the older Briggs.
