Re: Mike\'s tractor and welding projects

That's a bunch of nice welding projects. Congrats. I just took up welding this year and am still pretty much a beginner. I particularly liked your welding cart. ...shows lots of careful planning.

I put up a Clearspan (steel arch) barn last summer and I use a MIG welder so I do my welding indoors. Just finished building a steel dolly for the BH. Will take some pics and post eventually.

I have a bunch of welding projects lined up; next is a log splitter, after that a "tree getter" and eventually a larger double axle trailer to haul my B7800. I should be busy for a while. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Nice cart you built there. Those wheels look like they will
work nice for rolling over varying terrain. Would like to add some of those to a welder of mine too.

Doing a search for "Mike_C" using the "Display name" option will result in a big list of Mike_C's many contributions to TBN.

Re: Mike\'s tractor and welding projects

Mike is certainly handy with a welding machine as his fine craftsmanship shows. While surfing the web, killing a little time, I came across his work and thought I would share it with everyone again. Now, if we could convince him to start production on the 3 in 1 implement (see attached) he could probably put a little extra money in his pocket. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

I, for one, would sure like to see more pix of that setup ... at least a side shot /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Re: Mike\'s tractor and welding projects

I took the time to look at all the projects. VERY impressive and the projects show a lot of thought that went into each...as well as work. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Nice job!

Re: Mike\'s tractor and welding projects

Very nice, it looks like you could easily add a golf cart roof for a nice canopy. Just paint it Kubota colors /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Re: Mike\'s tractor and welding projects

well guys I'm certainly flattered, but also a bit confused as to why CarlGlas would post my stuff again. Anyway, there won't be any new projects for some time. My wife just left me 5 days ago, and I'm too depressed to do much of anything.

Mike: I'm very sorry to hear that. As a veteran of two failed marriages (on the third try I appear so far to have gotten it right) I can attest that breakups always hurt plenty.

However, my own experiences have taught me that life WILL go on and you WILL be happy again in the future. You may need a bit of healing time, but it will work out.

Not to be flippant about it, but this is probably not the time to follow Pluto's advice to Flounder in Animal House:
Pluto: "My advice to you is to start drinking heavily..."
Hoover: "...better listen to him, Flounder, he's 'pre-med.'"

Cheer up; something good always happens when you are least expecting it.....
