Rear weight problem Fixed

I had an old weight set that was at the house when we bought it so i used some of the parts off it to make some weights for my tractor.








Had trouble making brackets . As i don't have a welder so a lot of grinding and hole drilling i was able to come up with this . i think it will work . i used a think piece of tubing to go through the thinner square tubing i was able to stand on the weight and jump up and down and it didn't seem to bend or shift i hope this works for the winter. next year i can take this to my Brother in-laws and do some welding and make it stronger .

took the snow blower off to work on the plow . I have that all hooked up and finally got the thing loose so that i can move it. It was rusted real bad . broke my old ball peen hammer in the proses had to get that fixed before i could finish beating it loose. but i now have it working tomorrow i will get the thing all set up to use . Then i can put the snow blower back on . but i think I'm going to take off 1 or two of the weights real heavy . i can still move it with 1 arm but it takes some work .

So when are ya gonna put those tire chains on? The snow is a coming. At least you guys don't get as much snow as we do, or so I am told. My house sits right in the path for lake effect right off of Lake Ontario.

      Site programming updates were made 3/23/2024. As a result some things have changed including dues payment options. We will continue maintenance and work with technicians to regain credit card payment option and clear up minor challenges. On positive it appears attaching pictures is now easier. Good day. Gene
