Collected another wheelhorse today, its a 312 8 speed, has loads of spares many new in kohler boxes

some pic's of the linkbox on with a load of log's...

With one of my jobs  ive being  doing  I was asked to some harrowing  so here we are

Its more like a race for the keys and I lost. He is 6ft4" and his legs are longer than mine.
We were using 2nd gear as it was a faster rotor speed . I made a much simpler locking frame that bolted to the rear linkage drop bracket. Quick to attach and de-attach  and worked a treat. I will take photos and post .
My son got the second gutbrod up and running and used it to roll the soil after seeding. Not bad after not running for 10 years .

Got my stunt drive hard at work leveling out spoil over some virgin ground which were old ruts . Very hard clay ground but the machine coped well. The reduction hubs make such a difference . Thanks John

Sold it before I could get the straps off and off the trailer.

Some years back, I acquired a non running Mountfield  B&S 11hp Ride on. Deck was mainly rust and well beyond recovery, but it would be ok for the grandkids to ride round the green on. I got it running, Fitted an old car battery under the seat. Threw some paint at it and the result is below.
 
 

 
  That's number 3 grandson. Now pushing 14 and nearly as tall as me.
 
  Back to the Mountfield. It has been covered up in a corner outside for about two years. At the forthcoming HVC rally we have an auction, so I thought it time to get rid of it.
  Into the workshop and up on the lift. Not expecting it to start or the battery even turn the engine, I turned the key. The engine flew round.  Not bad for a battery that must be ten years old at least. So in with some go go juice and try again. Nothing and no spark. Plus the throttle/choke cable had broken.
  OK! It can go as is. So I left it on the ramp  to do other things. Just before I knocked off at 4-30, I gave the key a turn in passing. The thing BURST  INTO LIFE. Really made me jump as it blew the well rotten silencer end off as it started.
  Got me thinking should I keep it. But common sense says no. So off to auction it will go next weekend.

Great Job!  but if you were towing a mini digger you have lost it 

Like it! Nothing will stick in that.  No doubt the next one will be bigger and a twin axle.

Well I found the light switch and with the aid of my stunt driver, Here is the finished Hydraulic tipping trailer.
Really pleased with it. Link armes raise and lower when trailer tips and lowers but small price to pay.
