  • In this video I show my latest investment into my old 1988 Wheelhorse Tractor. As I've been getting older shoveling snow is about my least favorite thing to do, so I purchased a dozer blade, some wheel weights and tire chains from an old high school buddy that has lots of wheelhorse parts and accessories. With the 3 day snow storm we had a few days ago I got a chance to put it to work! I also want to thank Smoke Eater for his awesome gift of a couple of his custom, hand made bottle openers he sent my way. These are really awesome and I'll be putting those to work soon too.

    I have a 1988 310-8 as well. I wish I could find a snow plow for it.

      I have an extra one I would sell. It needs a little TLC but is all there. I live in western New York State.

    The old Wheelhorse did a great job!! I have the same tractor, but the motor went and it was the best riding tractor I ever used. We never did hook the plow up to see how well it worked though. Hopefully the snows gone before too long. Take care.

    That plow was definitely a good investment. I'm sure glad you like the bottle openers and it sounds like they arrived in the nic of time. And you certainly don't need to feel like a payback is in order brother, it's an honor to have you crack the cold ones with one of my openers👍🍺☘

      Thank you so much for the awesome surprise I found in my mailbox today. The guys at my little knap-in were in awe of the knife you made and sent. I owe you and Justin big time. I'll catch up with both of you eventually. Thanks again my friend!

    Picked up one few months back with the deck and snow blade with intentions of flipping it with the deal I got but after getting it running I decided to keep it add it to my collection with the d-250 and the c-81

    • @Paleoman52
      @Paleoman52  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I used that dozer blade this morning after the snow storm passed through over night. That D-250 must be a beast of a machine. I had a C-81 that I gave to my son, I really liked that tractor. I have 7 Wheelhorses at this time.

    You think your muscle pain is a result of knapping? Could it be shoveling snow?,,or could it be from retirement? :>) I here if you want to go down,just retire. Hopefully you'll find enough to stay somewhat active.

    Don't blame you on the politics, damned sick of it myself. Gonna stick with primitive tech. Got a lot of work ahead of me before September and my brain tanning demo for the local State park.

    • @Paleoman52
      @Paleoman52  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Brain tanning is some tough work, good luck! There is no leather as nice as a brain tanned hide!

    • @FrontierLegacy
      @FrontierLegacy 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      oh yeah. Got two that need to be redone and got the State Park to hold any roadkill for me.
