Ian

That's quite a mad looking machine, one to keep the toes away from Good to see you have got it running Paul

Good work Mark

Wheel Horses, a kart, a nice bike and a fun car, what more could a chap want in his shed ..... Ok, a pool table and bar would be nice too

It's going to be nice to see another mad UK build, keep us posted on how your getting one with it James

That's a beast of a mowing machine Chris

I have it worked out in my head how to do it, but as is my style (or lack of) I need to hold parts in place to work it fully out.. I think waiting to see how I'm going to do it would take less time than reading through my full 6x6 build on RS

That's the idea Norm, unlike when I tried it on my 6x6 this time it will work

Both Nigel and I are in Hawkhurst

Sounds good to me Mark, just let me know when Even though I've not started on this project yet, parts wise it has been a productive day.. I went to the shack to look for engine parts for DiggerJames (come on James, post about your new build here ) and kept finding parts for Project Zero turn! I have found the brake discs, lift arm stop, ammeter and mounting bracket!! I wonder what I will find tomorrow

Shame about the weather and having to cancel, but at least Project C4 got a good workout

It's good to have you here Growbag, I'm not that far away on the Kent/East Sussex border.

Happy Birthday Karl, hope you have a good day with plenty of Wh gifts

Correct Thanks Koen, I hope to get started on it asap but I do have some interior Workshack remodeling to do first! I have indeed. I had to wait until I had something to show before I announced my plans to the world Thanks Chris, it was great to visit last weekend, it was a shame I didn't have more time! Maybe not get my Wife to drive me over for the next visit Your welcome mate, good to catch up with both you and Wendy yesterday. And a big thanks for offering the Wh delivery service Lol, yep it was Tea.. at least I think the small round bags had tea in them... Coffee is more my line of expertize

That's a nice little find Neil. What are your plans for it? Restore or run her as she is?

It's a shame the museum saw fit to leave it outside Kenny, but at least it looks like you have hit the jackpot with a starting handle

That looks a very handy and capable machine Norm

I bet it you had a big grin on your face when the 4wd got you through all the mud

Afternoon all thought I would introduce you all to my new project A Wheel Horse Raider 14 Zero turn If you have been keeping an eye on the shout box you will of worked out I was buying more than just a lawn sweeper from Chris The Showman So thank you to Chris for selling one of your Raider to me and a big thank you to Paul and Wendy for delivering it this morning Quite a bit of time yesterday (and some today) was spent sorting out this mess.. To find some space for the Raider.. It does fit Paul As you can see it came without a bonnet or engine, which is where the green acorn firing Kohler 14hp engine will come in handy. This wasn't the original plan for this engine but as I have it and it mostly runs I might as well use it Now you know Koen A replacement bonnet should be arriving this coming week.. I need to look up the year, here's the chassis plate. The fender pan will need a bit of work, but the rusted out bit is only a flat bit of plate. The engine was put on the chassis partly because it was somewhere to put it, an partly to see if the low mounted starter motor would get in the way of the battery tray.. It does! The main reason for building this zero turn machine (other than, why not? ) is for a fun grass cutting machine.. So I also bought this slightly rusty rear discharge deck from Chris.. I think it came from a 12hp C-series?? The plan is to get the Raider running and moving under it's own power, which shouldn't take long, and then use it while making a new "up-swept" front axle to fit some castor wheels using Wh front wheels.. The Raider will go on the big bench (which my 6x6 was built on) to have steering brakes fitted.. So that's the plan guy's and girls.... What do you think ?

Shame about the weather Mark, Have you moved your 'orses into the beer tent yet?

That's a nice machine Steve, seeing takes me back to how I got started on this "ride on mower" lark, when I bought an old Webb er.. "sit behind"... Thanks for posting it up

Don't forget to video C4 pulling other less capable machines out of the mud

Nice work Titch, your soon have it finished the speed you are going

Good to see your herd out enjoying a munch on the green stuff Mark, just don't forget to feed them while they are shut away on the trailer Very much agreed Nigel

No more updates yet as I managed to trap some nerves in my right hand making it quite painful to do anything much, but..... Here's the first video of the action

Some very nice machines, thanks for posting them.. What is the round machine in photo 5? Oh, and is the lady in the first photo knitting the clothes she is wearing? The wool looks the same colour
