    (L) The tractor's brass radiator is fully functional and has 20 tubes and 72 fins just like the original. It also has 33 square headed bolts and nuts (.038" dia., 120 tpi) to hold it together like the original. There are 167 separate pieces with 146 solder joints. The logo was scribed and cut freehand with a .022" end mill on a Sherline mill.

    My goal is to get this one out of the shed and get it running, I started building it 20 years ago and it hasn't been started in 8-10 :anonymous:

    It started out as a Wheel Horse lawn mower, I used the engine, transmission and main part of the frame off of it. The rest is stuff I bought at auctions or made. The top part of the radiator is the gas tank, holds about a gallon.

    The special ground drill bit is for counter boring these holes. This is the short part, there is one a lot longer coming. I predrilled them from the other side. Don’t have a spot drill long enough.

    His way of locating the holes is a little different than the way I did it but whatever gets the job done. How you know they are stuck on the ends the same?
