Well, technically, not a tractor but a horse drawn threshing machine. But I have been eyeing it for the last 30 years. Whenever I have mentioned it, J would say the bolts were too rusty and we would need something to cut it off. So the last time I was over there, I checked it again, and discovered that the wood and bit of metal it was attached to were rotten and I just tore it off.
Next came figuring out how to mount it on something.I was cleaning out a barn we are trying to get torn down (for the last 5 years) and saw this tire rim.
Worked prefect if you don't want to actually sit down. It is just not quite heavy enough with the angle of the seat. Maybe if I bury it or stake it to the ground somehow. Now I have to find a place to put it.
Very cool seat :)
ReplyDeleteI will be interested to see how you solve the balance issue.
