My 4x4 articulating 23hp tractor and cab project

[Waldon52]

Thanks again for the many nice comments.
I always question every project I do because I am no welder , I am no bodyman , I can't paint very good and my fabricating is so , so . I am the first to admit my stuff is far from perfect . It's even a little embarrassing showing my tiny little one car garage size workshop. I still drool when I see peoples workshops with lathes, milling machines , a iron worker , computerized plasma cutters , etc.
My methods are so crude but I really do enjoy each new project challenge. Thanks again .

The really kewel tools are nice but they don't replace the thrill of doing it with what you have at the moment. Love your work.

Thanks ,
I contacted Mark at Farm Show and sent him info on my four mini tractors last week so they could be in the next issue in two months. I always wanted to make a mini tractor and put it in that magazine.

Don't you ever sleep or anything Don? Beautiful work as usual.

Did you see the scratch built full size articulating tractor with a 318 Dodge built by the guy up around Toronto?

That's just amazing!!!! Good job. Does it have heat? From the picture, it looks like your head is above the cab, does it have a back or are you exposed?

Yes, I did see the fellows 4x4 articualting tractor from Canada, very COOL. Thanks , no heat , wanted to keep the cab to scale so the back comes off to drive it . Still keeps much of the wind off me and dressed warm it isn't too bad plowing snow with it.

it's pretty amazing when someone is able to build something like this.

That is the magic of your craftsmanship.
