Garden Tractor Progress, Hood Hinges.



aset of hinges, originally uploaded by Don Campbell Models.

Articulating 4×4 Garden Tractors, Home Made Tractors – Todays progress picture shows my progress on the frame extension brackets and hinges to tip the engine hood forward.
You can also see I have marked the four top hood opening to be cut out with the plasma cutter tomorrow. Once the top screen is done then I will weld the top of the hood on for the last time. I am happy how the new hinges worked .
Next on the list to do is the lower front frame . Once I get going on the front blade I will have to re design the front attachment arm mounts lower .
Freezing Rain – Snow on its way and freezing rain here now . Were not alone with this Winter Storm Waldon (:>)
Everyone is getting hammered with Waldo . The bad thing is we still have a lot of snow and large snowbanks that we got after Christmas that has never melted and it it hard as a rock and will not melt.
Could be much worse and getting tornados and floods so I’m not complaining , ha,ha.
Have a great Thurs.
