Front forks – Even though it got over 80 degrees this afternoon and my burns inside my workboot was very painful I did manage to get the front fork brackets cut out and welded in place. I even threw a coat of paint on them .
Now if I end up selling this loader it might sell better with the snow bucket and the forks for more use for the buyer.
Tomorrow I got to test the forks and I am going to try to talk Deb into standing on them and letting me lift her 8 or 9 feet in the air while she balances our cat on her shoulders, ha,ha,ha, We all know that isn’t going to happen but it would be a unique picture. (:>)
I also put a new seat on this machine over the weekend and that looks 100 times better if I sell it. I sure am enjoying that new chrome exhaust pipe . Now the old Waldon is my good Waldon.
Have a great Tues.
