I saw some split bushings and heavy sheaves the other day that would be perfect as flywheel weight. They already have the keyway, and they would be close enough to balanced. You could likely find the same thing at TS.

Cooperative guy, he is. :P
I don't want to spend their lives inside. To much to explore and learn.

Buford is up to about 15lbs now. He will go along with most anything too.

Buford is awesome. 8)

Indoors is no place to live. It's good that your grandchildren have you to enjoy the pleasures of being outside with.

Kids need to play with tractors, ATV's, fishing poles and BB guns. Not Nintendo's, My Space and whatever indoor obesity inducing nonsense they are up to nowadays.

JMHO.

Thank you for sharing the great photos, Allen. Even the cat was helping! Many hands make light work.

You are in classic status right now. Vintage comes after 60 I believe.

I worked with a guy that said his grey hair was like a discount coupon. No one question him when he ordered from the senior menu.

Buford helped by making sure the leaves didn't blow away.

We clean up the yard in about an hour. Then is was tractor cruising time.

As big as he is, Buford can hold down a lot of leaves! 8O I get the impression your girls love Buford. Buford doesn't have such a bad job!

Not sure if you all will be able to see the pic or not. We played in the snow last Christmas with my Dad's loader Cub and a tobogan.
