the showman

Found my old Spedeworth race license, i think the photo is a bit out of date now. 

Bout time you made a start on this, hope you get it done before the other one arrives ,

Had a good day, the van unloaded, logs all split and under cover in the store and all the 4x2 sawn up and stacked ready to go in the wood burner 

Just an update on the Roundup, we have 12 Wheelhorse's coming plus 3 very special ones that have not yet been seen before on the English rally field.

Dont forget all makes of Horticultural machinery are welcome at the show with the addition of the Roundup that will have their own exhibiting area.

If you hav'nt got an entry form yet just message me or vegikev and we can email you one

Makes it easier to move with the digger., didn't take that long to cut up and thanks for your help Alan.

All the exhibitors who attended the 2016 show should have their entry forms now for this years show.

All Horticultural exhibits welcome, there will be arena displays and a working area to use.

That'll be Pam.

I think i might have to make one that's universal to take the attachments I've got, thanks for the offer tho

Thanks for organising such a brilliant day at the centre, very enjoyable with lots to see and talk about and not forgetting the big fried breakfast.

heres my photo to add to the above 

Might take it to RPT but I've got to make some hitches for it so i can fit a plough ect, Tractorfest will have to be Wheelhorse because of the roundup I'm doing

Looks absolutely brilliant Chris. How does it compare to a equivalent WH out of interest? 

 

I must see it sometime when I am next passing through   

Job to tell Andrew, ive only been doodling today at a garden centre but I'm very pleased with it

Looks good. Take it shes a runner now then Chris??

Yes it is Chris, had my first drive round today. Runs nice and gears and brake work, has a screeching noise sometimes when i let the clutch up I think its a belt or rusty pulley but it has been standing for a while 

Spent a lovely day at a garden centre displaying the Bolens today.

It started straight away and was driven to the display area, here's the photos 

Spent a bit of time on the engine today, Cowling primered and painted, points and new condenser fitted, flywheel fitted, coil refitted.

Its all back together and had it running for nearly an hour and pleased it runs so well.

I will do some PHOTO's for you tomorrow when I get it out of the van

All the very best to you Jonathan, hope you have a great day . 

Happy birthday mate, hope you have a good day. 

Had a spare couple of hours today so I stripped the front of the engine and flywheel, removed the coil, condenser and points.

Points look good so they had a good clean then I went over the mower centre to get coil and condenser checked on jonathans machine, the coil came up good but the condenser came up duff.

happy to pay a fiver instead of 55 quid.  

Hope to get it back together sometime this week

Well done mate, good coverage. 

Their not in the van, ive had to borrow a trailer.

16 with the 3 I'm bringing 

A very enjoyable way to spend a Saturday morning, plenty of banter and cups of tea. 

And better still I didn't buy anything. 

I looked at one of those a few weeks ago and decided it was too big to go behind a wheelhorse

Is there going to be an arena display this year?

Looking at the outlet pipe you could wear baggy trousers and collect the grass, don't forget to tuck the bottom of the legs in your socks

  I'm beginning to think there could be more than I remember.  Should have made a list.

You don't have to worry Norm, we've got a list
