Thread: New Project

Tweet

This was the fastest project I've had in a long time. I took it out of the box and assembled it in an hour, and even tested it out. Too bad the real things weren't this easy. Haha This is our kids' first power wheels type ride. I'm sure they'll be estatic to see it!

Well...Have ya road tested it yet????

No, I haven't. I don't want to break it. They kids will be testing it out Thursday afternoon for sure!

Now you do realize that Mothers carpet cleaning account will increase when your young men bring that car in for indoor fun after outdoor skids ? Awesome what parents can get for their young kids these days. I thought I was the best when I received a Austin A40 pedal car when I was little and now they are collectors sort after things and mine probably ended up at the tip.

Good thing she has a carpet cleaner in the closet. Yeah, it's really cool what is ou there. I really thought the Bug Pel posted was real cool! I have to make some choices now. My daughter's birthday is coming up and she wants a pink tractor. I was going to make the kids a 1/2 scale tractor, but I don't have the time before her birthday. I think I'll get a pedal tractor and paint it and the powered one can wait. That way mama can get over the fact of them driving things.

I have twin 3 year old grandsons. A couple of months after turning 2, a friend gave them a hand me down of one of the powered Jeeps. I watched as in one day they learned to drive it, including going in reverse. By day two they were running into the tree with one wheel trying to climb the tree like Monster Trucks. After a while they went inside, got Mom's I phone, thumbed through it, got on the internet, found Netflix, and started watching Thomas the Train. I sat there and remembered outloud that when I was 3, I got a ball. Oh how times have changed.

When you do the Tractor POST IT !!!!!

Here's wishing you and yours a Merry Christmas.

Scooting, that is funny about the tree. I guarantee if my brothers and I had any power wheel anything when we were my kids' age, everyting would be in danger! Heck, we had go karts when I was 12 and my youngest brother was 4. That little turd ran in to the back of my bicycle and knocked it clean out from under me. And that was with the "Vice Grip" govorner our dad rigged up on it.

Mike I sure will, and thank you! I just picked up a 107 Cub the other day I was going to use. But I think a hydro one might be a better option with young'ns. I have a 7hp Hatz diesel, I just need to find the rear tires, a lathe, and time.

Nah, you need the Original.. first model cub cadet! I've got 2 you can have! roflmao!

Yesterday afternoon we went to the in-laws and the kids walked behind their house and saw their new ride and were super excited! The only problem is it's a 2 seater and we have 3 munchkins. Looks like I need to get on the daughter's little tractor sooner than I thought. None of them were real excited about getting out of it to wait their turn. And the battery only lasted 45mon cruising in low gear in the tall grass. Might have to buy a second battery for it.

Way cool.. how come we didn't have stuff like this when we were kids?
