I had put a post on saying id like to try to take a frame from a old steel wheeled manure spreader, and use some of the frame to make a lookalike tractor that looked like an old front wheeled drive tractor. Some said the frame was too weak. Im wondering what the weight of a load of wet cow stuff high enough that there was side racks on at least one side. Someone said it would be too wide to go between the rows in an antique tractor show. the David Bradley discs I had in mind, 2 side by side, would only be 6ft wide., Same with a section harrow. Ive seen many many antique tractors people for no real reason to start up a tractor, and pull it out of the lineup, and just to drive it around for awhile. Some of those are 10ft wide. I know that the frame might have to be built up depending upon what kind of engine I might use, What Im wondering is, Is an engine, and trans and rear end heavier or same as a full load of wet holstein manure. Im wanting to know, if, I were to affix a pulley wheel on the end of one end of the rear end, how I could operate the pulley and yet keep the tractor still. I know that that could be done way back 80 yrs ago, But I dont know if modern rear ends can still do this. Im wanting to know, If I have to use a side shaft engine, what was the best way useing flat belt technoligy to transfer power from the side shaft engine to the gear that runs the chain that goes to the bull wheel on the spreader wheel.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
