    Bought a mill!

    I removed the 6” riser and lowered the head back down to a normal height. Stacking blocks between the knee and ram allowed me to use the knee to raise the head, remove the riser, and lower the head back down. The riser can be installed easily enough if I need the extra height for a special setup.

    Bought a mill!

    After I ordered the VFD to get 3 phase power to the mill, I began looking for a suitable enclosure to protect it. It dawned on me that I had an ammo can that might work. After cutting holes in both ends and adding some mesh for airflow, I have a military grade electrical enclosure. I will add...

    Bought a mill!

    After several years of casually looking for a Bridgeport style mill, I finally got serious and bought one last weekend. It is a Willis model 1050 knee mill. It was built in 2007 or 2008. It has a 10”x50” table, 3hp motor, variable speed, quick change pneumatic drawbar, X axis power feed, way...

    Front snow plow frame issue 149

    The blade frame should be around 6” wide at the back. My blade came with a frame to fit a wide frame Cub. To make it fit my 100, I cut the frame behind the plate that ties the sides together. The pieces I cut off were swapped side to side and welded back on. Now, it fits on my 100 and 129. The...

    very unusual wheel treatment

    Maybe they were used to secure tire chains.

    Finally! 169 done.

    Do you plan to use it, show it, or just stare at it?

    Rolling bearings under NF spindle

    A friend of mine machined his front axle and added the thrust bearings. He said it made no noticeable difference. I believe most of the drag is between the axle bore and the vertical part of the spindle. On my 100, I heated and bent the spindles to about 3-4 degrees of positive camber and went...

    Ag tread tires for 122 rear

    I scored a pair of Carlisle Tru Power 23/8.5/12 on Amazon a few years ago for I think $65 each because the seller only had 2 left. A couple weeks later, they restocked and the price went back up to $90 each.

    149 rock shaft question

    There are 3 spirol pins. One on the left deck lift arm, one on the right deck lift/ cylinder attachment arm, and one on the height stop/ front blade lift rod attachment arm on the right side of the frame. I had one of the pins partially shear and the blade would barely lift off the ground. I...

    Drive shaft constantly spins CC100

    It sounds like the driveshaft is dragging in the pilot bushing. Lock down the clutch pedal and see if you can spin the shaft by hand. If it doesn’t spin freely, loosen the engine mounting bolts and move the engine around until the shaft spins freely and tighten the bolts.

    Spindle (knuckle) swap

    I put 1” spindles on my 129. They came from a late year quietline 1650.

    Larger cylinder on 149

    My 149 runs the 2” bore x 8” stroke cylinder on my dump trailer fine with no additional fluid volume. A double acting cylinder only needs enough volume to displace the area of the rod. As the cylinder extends and retracts, oil goes into one end and returns to the reservoir from the other end.
