  1. Thats what I've got to do Norm, get more weight on the front end. That looks neat and tidy
  2. I could put another deck handle on the right hand side, then I could use both hands
  3. The r/c is for the wireless just above it Ian 😎
  4. Might be one buried in my shed or at Johns 😃😃😃
  5. I already know. 😀😀😀😀
  6. Hydraulics are for pussys, you should have 3 wheetabix in the mornings
  7. Ive got it mounted on the Raider 12 now and all loaded in the van for a working weekend. I'll do some more detailed photos of it working for ya over the weekend weather permitting
  8. As some of you know Norm and myself have been messing around with ploughs, the ploughs we have are the same and very heavy, Norm very kindly made me a hitch the same as his and the plough fitted and worked very well, the only problem was lifting it with a cable from the deck handle. Norm has a spring on his but makes it awkward so I've made a longer cable and moved it back near the plough for better leverage and it seems to work much better
  9. Don't tell everyone Norm, its spose to be a secret
  10. Found this little saw last week, its a Kennedy power hacksaw bench mounted and uses broken hacksaw blades and cuts up to 50 mm. Its 110 volt and when I first turned it on i used a long stick as it had been laying around for a while but it works fine. It soon goes through metal and is fascinating to watch. All i got to do now is find a use for lots of 1 inch bar cut an inch long
  11. They are Andrew, the bearings are nice and tight and the tyres are marked 16x4 , 6 ply They are Norm, I thought they were for bolting the brake drums to, as they have the same 3 holes

    New Wheels

    Found a pair of wheels for the front of a future Wheelhorse project. Seems to be the latest mod to fit hubs and narrow rims to the later Wheelhorses. These are heavy duty ones and in good shape
  13. Thanks for the photos Paul, i feel I've had a wasted weekend
  14. Anymore sensible suggestions please
  15. Blimey Norm you've been busy beginning to look like a proper workshop now
  16. Ah Ha, i thought it was something to do with Horses, better paint it red then
  17. Came across this and i had a use for it but wandered what it was for originally, looks like a mobile forge or something similar. The only name i can see on it is Bradbury. Could be a hot seat with cup holder or something to put the bbq on
  18. Don't know how you fitted the Spitfire in that little gap
  19. The things i have to do in pursuit of my hobby, I don't think the spiders and rodents were very keen on me invading their home and the only way out was through the door where i was standing
  20. Looks good Norm, i think i might weld some strengthening bars on mine before I paint it
  21. You forgot to say that the wheelhorse won hands down Nigel 😀ðŸ˜ðŸ˜›
  22. Nice little Red tractor, I'm sure Iain will have something to say about it 😀😀😀
  23. Had a great time at the Tractorfest, arrived on Friday afternoon and set up my display, Saturday was warm and sunny with loads of visitors arena display at 1 30 pm then time to play in the working area and try out my plough, Sunday started of well but started raining at 12 30 ish so we did our arena display in the rain by the time we finished it stopped and it was back to chilling out and drinking tea. Many thanks to Kevin for organising the section and making it all happen, well worth the trip up to kent and it was very enjoyable. Thanks again
  24. Don't need one ov them Norm, it won't be carrying heavy goods only little Wheelhorse's
  25. Looks good with those disc's on the back
