nice work on it. I did very similar thing with an ammo can about 5 years ago and I have loved it. I didn't put drain holes in and things stay very dry in the box but I also don't put things in there wet. not the best picture but you can see it down by the right side.
I made one a couple years ago. find the size bore you want and the stroke length you desire then weld extensions on to the length you need to make it work. important that you have enough of an extension that the cylinder doesn't bind against where it connects to the tractor.
Did this a couple years ago but I was inactive at the time. Thought I would share the final outcome. Tank is a scrap aluminum gas tank from a military surplus truck.
Gents, I am parting with my 3pt PTO snow blower this year in favor of my new front mount on my x749.
anyone who is interested in purchasing let me know. It is 74" wide and built like a tank. I have the manual rotator and deflector bolts if someone does not have the hydraulics to run the...
Anyone have experience with Kanlan Attachments. Looks to be a good Canadian company making well made green, orange, and red stuff.
Welcome to KANLAN Attachments
The only real way to keep them from not only the element but from the sun is to use a shed. The draw back to the shed is then you have to maintain the the shed and incur the cost of building it. I personally built my shed so that I didn't have to look at them all laying around. I built...
I bought the Genny last year and made most of the carrier last year but waited a year to paint it. I have finally learned to not be to quick to paint because I often want to modify things after I try them out. Genny is Voltmaster 12k.
I have had my problems with getting yellow to cover as well. Here is a picture of nozzle problems with the Valspar. I was just painting along today and "bam" paint everywhere in my hand. The other issue I have with Valspar is that is is not as glossy and you end up with flat unblended...
Here you go. Hope this helps. I wish they where secured a little better like some others I have seen that have the fittings at the end going through a metal bracket that doesn't allow it to bend. Overall i like it better than the kits that just zip tie to the loader hoses.
Piston, not sure if you guys have had any luck but I prefer just running front tire chains and I really wanted the Aqualine MPC chains for the font tires but was told they don't make them in that small a size. Anyone else have luck finding them for the front tires?
Here is my my old Farm King (Buhler). I think it is somewhere in the range of 20 years old but is a tank and the technology hasn't really changed. I found this one on CL 4 years ago and added the hydraulic chute rotator and deflectors. with the thickness of the metal on these things, I...
Just picked up a new Woods Brush Bull 60. I won't be using it anymore this year since the snow is ready to fly but I couldn't pass up the deal since the dealer was looking to get rid of 2013 inventory.
I won't miss my old light duty Howse flying apart all the time.
