i here they have called the Dutch boys over to sort this mess out and they are bringing some of there big pumps with them .I have toured Holland a lot over the years on my bikes and trikes and always been impressed of how they keep the water in control with there pumps and dykes ime sure they will sort this out asp and hopefully our goverment learn some thing
that looks like a nice project there matt i have not seen one of them over here, it looks a very strong and well built machine i will look forward to see what you do with it over the next few months
i built this out of my scrap pile over christmass parts included, mayfield merlin bonnet+dash/ electrac front+rear axles/ wheelhorse rear wheels/old fergi seat+steering wheel/mudgaurds 40gal oil drum
i chop things up all the time and recycle them a lot of things dont have a use these days but once converted they can have another 50 years working life,ie take a horse drawn plough cut her up add a bit here and there and it fits your tractor, farmers and smallholders have been doing it for years
my boy karl is chief engineer down these mines now i thought i would put these picts on of what it was like back in the early 1950-70s there is some intresting equipment take a look at some of the tractors converted so you sit low and dont bang your head,
i
i have to have a clear out some time neil i just have not got the room to keep them all, like paul says i like building them i show them for a year or two then they have to go, i will be selling two huffys/ one trojan/ and a cub cadet this year got to make room for more projects
heres a bolens 750 that i added a fork lift too i had to lengthen it to stop the front wheels coming of the ground it worked ok it would lift three adults without problems
