Title: Christmas wish list
Post by: Blake Malkamaki on December 06, 2005, 09:17:05 AM
Hey guys, what do you want for Christmas?

Any Cletrac related stuff? Tools? What's new out there that could be used in tractor restoration?

Title: What my Cletrac wants for Christmas

New Replacements:
1. Shift knob
2. Cletrac gauges
3. Side curtains
4. Battery box

And most of all: Time together!  

Time for me to finish getting the engine back together,
Time and weather to allow me to finish painting the chassis
Time to get the engine in, and re-assemble the tractor.

I love my job, but it ate my life!

Following a recommendation from fellow forum member Walter Hudson, Santa's elves brought me a needle scaler.  I finally had a chance to try it out last weekend to take the paint off the chassis and gear case - what a GREAT tool!!  Took about an hour to clean off both sides.  MUCH better than sandblasting.

Oh Yes! Needle scalers are wonderful. I traded a friend a couple gallons of maple syrup for one several years ago. A very useful tool!
