What are you up to in the workshop?

The DD rings on the Horsch have cracked a bit more so we are using the Hiatus in Harvesting to take them off . Kellys have a Tool for dismantling and tensioning them on reassembleing them . The end has dished in releasing the tension. It will get new bearings.

It was some bastard of a job had to keep tacking and twisting it and then when you. Got around to the far side I tacked it to a channel iron and welded it inside then.

Looks well, do you have any paint left over to paint the loader? :whistle:
She will have to earn her keep first haha

What was the hardest part, was it setting up the pivot points for the rams
Frame was the easy bit the trunks weren't easy.
The pivot points weren't easy either it was pure guesswork.
And my mig packed it in when we were at it was badly behaved for a few days and then went.
