Duke, Folks,
-For the tiller depth adjustment handle fabrication: I cut the round threaded spacer out of the welded assembly that was used for the tightening of the belt. ( I had a extra one). Then whittled out a piece of sheet steel (.10 inch thick) in the approx shape of the new twist handle. Bent it to shape in the shop vice and welded the threaded tube into it. Its not factory but should look pretty close.
- Also some pictures of the support as it came out of the de-rusting tank after several days. (Light hand wire brushing).
- The tines are on the drive shaft.
-Major tin is in place.
-Main lower draw bar is bolted in place.
Some trouble with the left tin extension. For some reason it did not have a holder for the pivot rod to go through. I think I will have to make one as this is causing some binding and scraping the paint off the extension tin. I should have built on while I had it bare metals.
Anyway some shots as it starts to take shape.

Regards,
Chris
