Home Made Garden Tractor Cab Window Installation

Garden Tractor Cab Project- Today I am working on the windshield and it is taking a while . The side windows I installed them flat but the front and rear will have a nice curve in them more like a real tractor cab. It’s hard to see but there is a 3 inch curve in the front windshield. I had to make a top and bottom curved frame and next I will work on the sides of the frame. After that comes the mounting bracket design and then I have to modify the front top cab lights, the wiper and the mirror bracket and the strobe light bracket. So there is quite a bit to this front window installation. The side windows are in and it looks 100% finished.
More snow today – Were getting light snow again today so I’m sure we will have a couple more inches by morning. That should give us close to 12 inches. It’s lake effect snow so not great for snowmobiling yet. cold temps are perfect for the Treetops and Boyne Mountain Ski resorts.
No bake cookies – Deb made a batch of no bake cookies and they go great with buttery popcorn sitting next to the fireplace
roasting chestnuts as the cat and dog snuggle up to us listening to Christmas Music and drinking our favorite Sparking Grape Juice.
Life is good , not great !! by no means lol , but were very thankful this Thanksgiving and looking at the positive.
Actually we have no fireplace , no dog, no chestnuts, and no sparking grape juice but were still very happy (:>)
No one knows what tomorrow brings but I do know that God gave us this one more day to enjoy. (:>)
Try to see positive today
Have a great Tues.
