Can't Stand Prosperity!!

Yesterday we did the second phase of this project. We stretched and glued more vinyl and glued part of the trim. I picked up 12 more clamps at Menards and we clamped everywhere. Either in a few minutes or after supper we will stretch and glue the last section at the bottom front of the seat. Tomorrow we should glue and clamp the last section of trim. So perhaps Saturday I can reinstall the seat.
I put a temporary seat on the J.D. and also reinstalled the tire/wheels. Wheels are painted and the tires are cleaned and sprayed with a tire shine. Getting this ready for a few shows coming up soon. Hooked up the sulky and will probably use this combo for riding around. I need to touch up the front grill and the screen on the engine shroud.

The wife announced she wasn't cooking tonight and neither was I. So we went to the local bar and had ranch burgers.
after we got back, we stretched glued and clamped the last section of vinyl. About this time tomorrow we will glue and clamp the trim piece.

Hooray!! We got to the end of this. took the clamps off this morning and checked everything out. It seems to be holding. Time and usage will tell.
there is a clip that covers the ends of the trim where they meet. Got it clamped into place and took the seat to the shop for installation. Look s real nice on the tractor.

I got around to cleaning and painting the pieces for hanging the deck, and for mounting the generator off the front of the 110.
Might get around to hanging the deck tomorrow or Tuesday. Still need to install the generator and make it work.
Parts are hanging in the bathroom/ paint drying room.

Got the deck installed this afternoon. Leveled it and found the correct belt.
Took it out behind the neighbors' fence and mowed the alley for him.
I may hang onto this one as a backup mower.
Next thing is to install the generator and make sure it functions.
