I think the tractor supply will have the needed parts. I can make a bracket for a caliper.

Weldangrind · 09-07-2011, 07:09 PM

Let me know if you need it, and I'll box it up.

katoranger · 09-07-2011, 08:05 PM

I will. Will have to make a trip over to TSC to see what they have.

katoranger · 09-09-2011, 01:20 PM

Trip to TSC and was skunked. No #35 sprockets. No cart brakes.

Emilie started hand painting the frame after I laid the white base coat. :wink:

Weldangrind · 09-09-2011, 09:51 PM

What diameter #35 (or rotor) would you need?

katoranger · 09-10-2011, 10:26 AM

I think the sprocket is about 5-6 inches in diameter.

katoranger · 10-06-2011, 03:51 PM

Got some pink sprayed.

That belt clutch. I think I will need to cut the extra shaft portion off and turn it up side down so the pulleys are close to the engine fr belt alignment.

Buford getting some attention.

And watching the yard.

Will the pulley work upside down? I've seen some ads for clutches (pulley or chain) that indicate they will work either way, but I don't know if they all will. It depends whether the weights are designed to move straight out or pivot once centrifugal force kicks in. Does it come apart?

katoranger · 10-07-2011, 12:04 PM

I think it will work. The weights pivot.

It is similar to this one and it says it can run both directions.

I found out that you press the pedal to make it go and let off to make it stop.

Also my Dad bought a seat for it. This project will resume in Kansas. I have all the parts packed up.

Also watching a vintage wheel horse with a mower.

I love those older pics of your family and Bufford.

That's cool! A deadman pedal is perfect for kids.
