Ian

That's a nice collection you have ben..

Good to see another local member on MOM, I'm just over the border in Hawkhurst Kent....   A good friend of mine Garry who has been in quite a few of my vids lives just down the road from you in Nude Romney as he likes to call it

All you have done James is make me want a sickle mower even more

Cheers for posting the vids

I'm thinking of a rear steer Ian what you think ?

That could be an interesting project James, not quite sure how it could be built, it needs some thinking on..

Looks like it was a great day, something for everyone. Ta for posting the pic's mate

I think you can find some time on the horse if needed

"Time is an illusion.. Lunch time doubly so".    No points or prizes but can anyone tell me where that quote is from?

Almost ready to start on it Koen, I've come so close to getting the shack tidy it would be a shame not to finish it..

hurry up and get going then!

Looking good Ian you've gave me an idea for a future project!

Thanks James.. So what's this idea for a future project?

I heard about it on Ian's YouTube channel

Thanks mate, good to know people take notice of my videos

Someone told me on RS.  

A good bunch of chaps over on RS

Ian's You tube channel: joined almost immediately. 'Almost immediately', can you say that? is it not like when they say "the time is almost exactly ***** " ?

Thanks Ranger, it's cool to know I'm getting the message across in my videos

Well i was approached by this American Geezer blokey chappy dude from new yoik, about what to do with a not used much forum & there was a wonderful opportunity to create an international forum  for people to display & chat with like minded others  .so from there MOM was born. 

 

Members have grown steadily over the last few months from allover Europe & USA and more members join each week to show their wonderful machines .

We value each & everyone of our members and we are continuely striving to add more& more features to the site to improve the experience here on the forum, so forgive me if i use this as a moment to plug for members to consider becoming supporters of Mom by visiting our store  

So whether you are a member or a supporter ,thank you for regularly visiting us & sharing your thoughts & experiances ,as mom wouldnt work without your input.

 

By the way , i hope to be meeting that blokey chap US dude from New Yoik in a few weeks time so will thank him  in person for

helping us set up Mom

Very well said Neil

A big Thank You to both Karl and you for getting the MOM ball rolling, MOM is a great place to be

I was told by another member, and very pleased I was told.

Thanks Sten, happy you like it here.

Could well have been you that gave me the nod....

I might of had something to do with it

told by mod nigel

Nigel's a good chap like that

Not sure how I found it, but glad I did

Were glad you you did too Karl

Nigel told me about the forum, Neil asked me to be a moderator...

Both good chaps eh

found it by looking on RS, wanted to looks something up on the home build forum, clicked on it and got send here, been here since

 

 

Koen

MOM does get to you like that.. Once here you can never escape

all neils fault

It is

A fantastic job Paul

Any chance of a video of it in action?

Looking good Darren, your soon have it back together

  an update time to tinker with it then

 

 

Koen

Almost time... I will be starting on it at some point next week for sure

Evening Lady's and Gent's, now Project Zero-ish turn is up on the build bench..

I thought I would give you a few sneak preview photo's of what's to come ahead..

Not looking too bad from the side, only surface rust..

The back end looks a bit more rusty!!

When you look inside!!!   I now know where the missing presumed rusted away part of the fender pan has gone!!

I think there is going to be some fun times ahead with this build

Good work mate, I see the hood for the new project has arrived then !

 

Did you realise that if you abbreviate Project Zero Ish Turn it comes out as Project ZIT ??   Hmmmm !!!   

 

I'm sure it won't be a blemish of any kind if done to your usual standard...

The Wheel Horse ZIT 14... Has a ring to it

Ooh... Getting there

Even closer now

Makes ya feel sooooo much better when you have a tidy up,& ya create more room to fill up with other toot.

Looking good Ian

Hi Neil, more like feeling knackered after a tidy up

Well, today was the day for the very last bit of moving heavy stuff about in the shack..

To make some working space the 'orse's had to go out for a graze... Of course as soon as the first one was out it really pissisted it down!

Project zero-ish turn was also moved...

It went up

It's nice to have it on the build bench, it saves my knees and saves me having to struggle to get up off the floor.

The Wh's look really crammed in tightly but there is plenty of space to walk around the build bench and from one end of the shack to the other.

The cutting deck on the 312 could be a pain in the ankles!!

But there is plenty of space to roll it back out the way for when I need to use the vice..

In fact enough space has been created to stretch out and put your feet up        Thanks for your help today Rob

Very little left to do now, just a tidy round the edges, find space for the stuff that's sitting on top of the bench, and then crack on with Project ZIT

Evening all, I'm not sure I'm quite awake enough for this update, but I shall give it a whirl anyway

The day started with moving the 6x6 back to make some moving about space, and yes in the distance you can see..

The power hacksaw thingy has moved to it's new spot.

The end of the shelves were bare!!

And then they weren't there!

I'm pleased to say that despite working so close to the kettle, the coffee making facility's were still fully functional

It's not often I have all 3 running Wh's out, but today was one of those days..

So I could dig Project Zero-ish turn out from it's hiding place behind all sorts of junk.. It is there buried at the back

No sooner had I started digging than the thunder started and a storm was rapidly heading my way!

So everything that was outside was hurriedly moved inside!

I didn't have time to move all the clutter about so space is a bit tight at the mo!

But once all the clutter on the right and the stuff that was quickly pushed under the racking shelf is moved I will have loads more parking space for the 6x6.

Another couple of days should have the shack fully sorted now all the major work has been done...

Which means I can get started on Project Zero-ish turn now it parked somewhere I can work on it

I think your training no 2 about right Mark

I don't recognise the place

You won't when you drop in in a few weeks    Well, the only clue might be the red machines

When you've finished, Ian, can you pop up here. My workshop could do with a reorganisation.

Thanks for the offer Norm, but I'm going to be too busy getting on with stuff that's not shack tidying

These gas bottle wood burners are great aren't they

The pyrex dish door is a great touch, looks a lot better than the wok I use as a door on mine  

Right chaps, an update as requested by Paul a min ago

Next on the hit list for Operation "make space and find things I didn't know I had" was to tackle this messy corner and clear it out..

So I could fit this shelf thingy on the bench. This used to live under one side of the big bench but lost its parking space when the bench was trimmed down.

Lot's of digging later I found a bench grinder!

Gone!!!! along with the speaker..

That looks a lot better..

My new paint store despite the Batman camera angle

All the paint was stored in the red boxes that were between the racks.. Handy they have been moved as this space will soon fill up with..

This lot !!

That's looking a bit better.. The key to making more working space is to make more space here.... But your have to wait to see that

A very handy looking machine, me likes

A fine looking machine Jon

The tow hitch looks interesting!

For those of you that are very bored here's the footage from the other two live streaming tests

A big thank you to Koen, Mark for helping me out with the sound and video testing

Unless for some strange reason these videos suddenly get loads of views (I doubt they will but people are strange) I will be taking them down from YT in a few days as they are quite boring really

Yes Norm, that's right... You did see me drinking coffee

And maybe blow torch a slot hitch

Just having a play with it really, enjoy watching me potter about with loads of lag

Thanks mate, it looks way better than the current one

A nice couple of car Chris, any more photo's?

A nice mix of machines, i'l have the Kenworth or is it Peterbilt truck and one of the Ransomes crawlers please
