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

Now it's out in daylight it looks much more saveable Liking the air cleaner, a neat small thing.

Great photo's Paul, it looks like it was a fine show

A nice pair, the D-200 really does it for me Looking at the front hitch I'd guess it's used for moving caravans or boat trailers?

Thanks Kenny, glad your happy with my work.... At long last the end is in sight

Must be a very cold Kermit as he is blue

Why did I let you talk me out of this deck the other day Chris

A great collection you have Does the blue one have a name?

Your only jealous that when I was dribbling over your Holder the paint stopped it rusting

A little update for you chaps.. The big patches have been fully welded up. And a small hole at the front got the same treatment, I just need to trim it to size. I also found another small hole on the right side of the seat base.. Which turned into a bigger hole. For some reason I forgot to take any photo's of that patch being welded on, so here's one of the big patches marked out for trimming to size. And that chaps is the seat pan just about done.. as ever there is a little grinding of welds inside to be done, but that's all. Sorry this one's a bit blurred!

Happy birthday Michael, here's wishing you a good day

Good luck with your latest project Richard, if it were mine I would take the engine and bars off, then stick the rest in a vat of diesel to free things up.. Saying that, maybe an E-tank session is the way to go...

Sorry it's taken me ages to reply to you mate, I kept forgetting to take any photo's until the wire running out yesterday reminded me! My new-ish welded is also a SIP MigMate, but this one is of much sturdier construction... The wire feed gubbins are made of nice strong steel which doesn't bend unlike the plastic ones.. The thing that freaks me out with the new welder is it has/never had a cooling fan built in!!! Which means I forget it's turned on as I can't hear it!!

A nice collection you have there Paul.. I know who to ring should we get a power cut

Thanks for selling me this sweeper Chris, I'm very happy with it indeed. it's still in the back of the car but will be dug out tomorrow. I did just try and get some photo's of it but all I got was reflections of some strange bearded bloke holding a phone up

Good to see the pit bike up and running at last, I remember when you bought it last year

Having seen this fine machine today, all I can say is it's a good job you gave her the diesel treatment or my dribbling over it would of made her rust more

Don't you just love it when a plan comes together

Thanks Mark, I think it has a kind of "Darth Vader" look about it
