I'd like to get a snow blower for my Wheel Horse, but for the amount of time it would get used each year (if it snows) and the amount they cost over here, it just isn't worth it..
I have a snowplow should I need to shift any snow this year

Sounds like your making great progress Norm, good to see you have the trans sorted now
-
Thanks Ben. No twin wheels will be going on, but I will be widening a pair for those high speed runs

It looks like they were having a fun time, I'd just have to be a bit more gentle with my machines while off roading..
-
It's not a quad, it's something of Robo-war by the looks of it..

This chap Dany has quite a history of building machines, and they all get used! Check out some of he's other vid's

I think it's a massive wood burner made from an oil drum, and the Kawasaki is just to confuse us

Thanks mate though I'm not sure about a seasonal special, I'm even more "ba-humbug" than Nigel
Duels anyone?
Maybe not... A bit too much
Progress has been made although it's hard to tell from the next photo.. The axle has been put back together, diff and half shafts installed.. The axle can now be unbolted from the chassis, and the axle mounting place on the chassis has had some reinforcing..
I really need to take some photos!
One thing I always pride myself on is doing everything "In house" or even "In workshop", partly because it's nice to be able to say "I made that", and partly because I'd rather spend time making something than part with money
So with that in mind yesterday I finally came up with an accurate and safe and strong way I could convert a Wh rear wheel with it's 5 bolt 4 1/2" PCD..
To fit the Reliant's 4 bolt 4" PCD
I found this nice length of thick plate hiding on the bottom of a shelf in Nigel's "Handy scrap metal" store.. (Thanks Nigel ) which is enough to make 2 wheel centers from.
Let the lathe work start
The bad news is this steel is rather hard so it's going to take quite a while to turn each wheel center!

Now that's certainly dribble worthy... A very nice bike indeed
The yellow bike at the back I'm sure I've read about in a magazine a few years ago.. Is it a Yamaha twin "tracker style" machine with daytime MOT only?

How many offers did you get for it Andrew? They will all be wanting one now

It will be interesting to see, I've never seen a bendy Bolens
-
I hope the heath issues are nothing serious Richard!!
-
Another Bolens saved, your doing well Andrew When are you picking it up?
-
I've a lot less grey in my beard than that I will have you know
-
Nice work Mark, your Wh wiring is much tidier than mine

And something to sing along to
-
Thanks Chris, the piston is from a long dead Kohler KT-17
Morning Andrew, yes Karl can certainly weld Not sure if Why Not will be ready for the summer, a vast amount of work to do still.
