according to leroy from implements (thanks). This is my next project, got her in the fall. I decided that i should get my spray gun now so that if i screw up i can just dump it back behind the barn where i found it, LOL

I started taking it apart today. It has 50 little bolts on there, and at $1.50 a peice im just gonna clean them up and re-use them. I'm planning to wire wheel them clean, that rust comes off easy for some reason. Also repainting a year old cultivator that the paint is fading on and rusting through for some reason. Im making this thing red (since its all i got on hand and im a cheapskate) but im told thats its orignal color. So, the gun i decided on is from haror freight (i cant justify a $400 gun for a $250 implement). How do you use one of these things??? Do you have to thin paint out some more to get it to work???

Shooting paint on something like that would just make you mad. Go to TSC, get some of their BPS paint in the color you like, clean it up, paint it with a brush. The paint on the tines will wear off during the first use anyway!

Did you check the air needed for the paint gun to see if your compresser will even provide enough to operate a paint gun.

Lance, the Ferguson implements were all the grey, Dearborn were red. It has been painted before acording. And those bolts are a 7/16" fine thread and they used a thicker nut on them and they never had lock washers on from the factory. To find the same bolt you would have to get it from a dealer if it was still avaible. The nut is the same size as the head of the bolt, the new nuts are a size larger and there are spots that a new nut will not have turning clearance.

How many projects are you working on? It appears to me that you're trying to compete with Allan. You gotta be real careful when you're going up against a master.LoL Allan's been at it a while and has a few more resources than you when it comes to fixing stuff up. Nothing like a good ole friendly competition fixing farm equipment. Let the games begin! A lot of people root for the underdog. Good luck! Dave

Allis B-needs bearings, head, and gaskets

Craftsman mower-needs new mower belt, paint, needs charged battery and possible new silinoid

Wheelhorse mower-needs hood bracket made up, then put on, then new headlight bulbs, new front tires "(it aint getting any tho)

Cole cultivator-just needs wire wheeled and painted

Fergie cultivator-needs taken apart, wire wheeled, bolts need cleaned up, then painted and put back together

Thats about it i guess :-)

I'm sure that will be a nice piece when your done.You will have to find a paint expert on here tho.I can't help you much.I do know,differnt kinds of paint ie.laquer, enamel,demeron,and others [I can't think of] take differnt thinners.Just don't be like me.I want to see color now! I have trouble I have the tendancy to put it on too thick,therefor I have to go around it with a pair of scissors and cut off the runs.HA!HA!
