| Subject: Hello from Maryland January 30th 2015, 7:19 pm | |
| Greetings, I've been lurking in the shadows for a while and finally decided to join when I saw the 2015 Build-off. I am 15 but I am not new to tractors. I live on a 6 acre horse farm so I have quite a bit of space to ride around. My family (and I) own quite a few tractors but I am just getting started with racing them, and trail riding them so that's another reason why I joined. I own a 1967 Massey Ferguson MF-10 which I will be making into a snow removal rig for winter time and a mudding and trail riding mower for summer time. I also have a 1977 Cub Cadet 1000 and a 1976 John Deere 300 but those two are apart for repairs and restorations. We also have a Craftsman LT1000 which is my moms which I want to turn into a racing mower also. All other tractors are either hydro or out of my reach (figuratively) for mods. Well, that's just a Little bit about me, looks like I will enjoy my permanent stay here. ~Mason~ | |

| Guess I'm the new guy now. I live just west of Gettysburg Pa. 40 years old and I started working on mowers at 7. Back then it was only wheelhorse now it's whatever there is around. Only thing I currently have is a cub to mess with. While looking for ideas on the net found docs videos wnd thst led me here. Glad to see I'm not the only one with a very limited budget that enjoys mowers. | |

| Hello all! I'm sure like a lot of you my first powered vehicle was a lawnmower and like you I always dreamed of taking it out of the yard and off into the dirt! I fantasied about turning dad's lawnmower into a rock crawler almost 50 years ago. I'm not too surprised to find out I'm not the only one.
I actually found this forum while searching for info about using a lawn tractor differential-gearbox in another homebuilt vehicle. About the same time I was dreaming about dad's lawnmower small amphibious ATVs hit the market. I couldn't afford one but I dreamed about building one. Now I'm going to do it using lawn tractor and motorcycle parts. I'm not as interested in mods to mowers but in stealing parts from them. The key part is that compact box that serves as differential, transmission, clutch, and brake.
Does anyone else here build machines from the ground up using tractor parts? | |

Although in your other old thread post it seemed like we didnt want to hear or talk about it, we just dont want old threads brought up. We would all much rather have a new thread with clean slate so current members can talk about your ideas then having your idea on another persons older thread. | |

| Hey guys, I'm Bryce. Been around here for a while but never really introduced myself. I'm a Power Equipment student from Central Mass. Even though I'm 16 I sure know what I'm doing, proven by the fact that I won gold at the district Skills competition for Power Equipment and I'm competing at the state competition as a sophomore, which is unheard of. I came here to show off Project Hopeless and gain some ideas for here as well as knowledge. I love this site and plan on staying and helping others long after my project is complete. | |

| Hi everyone, I'm Marcelino and I'm 14. I live in Michigan so the snow is the ultimate terrain to conquer. I currently own a 1979 White LGT-1100 with an 11hp Briggs aluminum block, 20" turf tires and 5 speed peerless transaxle and I've been riding it since I was 4 but it wasn't modified then. I also have a 1968 Simplicity Landlord with a 1969 300000 series cast iron block 12hp engine and 3 speed locked tranny with 25" trail wolf tires. I've built these machines on a VERY tight budget because I'm too young to get a job. I hope I can shed some insight on builds yet, also learn alot from everyone on this forum. That's just a little about me. | |
