    Backhoe Stand

    I've got an MT1.25 with the backhoe. When it's removed I have it sitting on some big wood blocks but that gotten old now, Thinking about welding up a platform/stand/throne for the backhoe to relax on while it's off the tractor. Anyone else do that? Got pics? thanks! Bill in Joshua Tree, CA.

    LB1107 Backhoe Stabilizer Pad.

    Baby Tractor Looking for an Engine..

    I was gifted a 60s era Sears garden tractor with a totally seized engine. It has a belt-driven 4 speed trans-axle. I'd love to get it going from the grand kids to putt around with.. might even be able to pull the shaker-screen sand sifter I'm designing. I'm not an originality nut so I'm not...
