Carb needs a clean and rebuild. Sadly the piston is junk, cylinder is marked but I can’t feel them with my fingers. Replacing both. Hoped to keep as much of it original as I could.

We made it into the last field we want to plough ahead today, decided a photo/video shoot was in order.

Few horsepower there!

660 hp standard, 770hp on boost but one of them will boost on draft work

I shudder to think how much diesel you guys use!

I'm running about 45lt/h when actually ploughing, use about 400 lt in a decent day, other 2 machines are slightly less as doing less work.

[zeppelin builder]

past few weeks made hand controls to be able to drive the grinnal
i made an adjustable throttle interlinked with the clutch lever that ups the revs on idle by 500 rpm as the clutch starts to bite ,pulling in the clutch revs drop to idle good for low speed manouvers a push lever for brakes and a paddle on lhs for gas makes pulling out a junction without stalling a doddle
gearchange up only needs a tap when throttle is eased off but next idea is solenoid worked by two buttons on the steering wheel ,steerin wheel trim machined out so horn button can be taken out easily to unbolt the wheel for easy acess its held on by a hex taper so it removes easily , getting in is taken care of by a an overhead patient lift with a rail sort of parachute myself in ,plans for the future are a davit type lift so i can take my wheelchair with me and get in and out

A dog probably has at some point! Broke, nah. Carb kit, piston and cylinder less than £50.

Just made the workshop extractor work from my phone.

It's a H&S thing as I no longer have stumble over carp on the workshop floor to get to the switch

Which hardware is that Andy? I’ve got a few shelly smart relays I keep meaning to have a play around with…I’ve briefly tried one but only as far as powering it up and making sure it worked from the app.

I'm using the Denkovi IP relays https://denkovi.com/smartden-modules?CurrencyID=5

I've used them for a few years for various heating projects.

In this case I have the IP relay operating another relay that turns the extractor off and on. The same device has 8 relays, 5 of them are in the pic and turn on the heating in the barn or another outbuilding we call the goat house has it used to house goats

Very impressive. What's the flue for?

This was yesterday evening - a roof onto the stables

The mounted this hay rack the missus acquired into the stables, note the hinges on the wall...

A feeding hatch for the hay rack - the bale of hay is to the left so saves walking around the wall.

And then some off-grid lighting, a couple of spare 12/24V LED floodlights I had for vehicles, an old battery and even a small solar panel charger the previous owners left with the ride-on-mower.

Do the tramlines end up in exactly the same place next year or do they vary?

 

[Fraserb]

Depends on the field, that one has one decent straight edge so always drill it from the same side and put tramlines in the same place, other fields where we can drill from each side they vary.
