That group, the parking lot group, and the group stored at the farm are all going to be parted out and a lot of the parts organized in the shop and garages for future shop work, prob around 150 or so of them.

I've been working on the 4 gang fuse blocks that are about out of stock here again, and a new single fuse holder complete setup from all the same exact parts that Toro has, or had and are discontinued by them. I may go blind before I get all of the wired leads done on these projects but I've been working on them in spurts of spare time for awhile and spent a lot of time on these projects today. I'm making 100 more of the 4 gangs with the 3 fuses and 100 of the new singles for now, so that's only 800 leads if my math is right,,, oh my head hurts lol.

There's been a lot of interest in a complete wired single setup that no one makes, and that is factory correct clip and all for a long time, I just haven't had time to get it done but am making time now since everything is set up to do all these fuse connector wire leads. I'll put more about it in the store and how it's done soon.

Yep, my head hurts, where's the aspirin lol.

Keeping busy with making existing parts that are running low and a few new ones. The concrete still isn't done in dad's new barn so I have to have something to do and it's too cold to work outside lol.

The new single fuse block assy for the tractors is in the works and should be in the store by this weekend, details are here - New Single Fuse Block Assy

Also getting ready to make a complete pigtail assy for the safety micro switches that no one makes. The parts for that project that aren't already here will be here this week as well. The pic below will show the housing of the one that is up next.

the amount of work you get done in a day , ( week ) is amazing

Thanks Bill, it keeps me in shape.

There are 2 things I've always said to myself and employees. Go go go, and move like your on fire lol.

Had a few WH peeps from out of town show up unexpectedly yesterday afternoon so it slowed me down a little. Everything is here minus the metal clips for the new fuse assy and they are coming in today. Once they are here I'll update the post in the store section.

There's a pic of the new single fuse holder in the pic below minus the clip, I'm really happy with how the upgraded version came out and how it will last longer than the original. It will make a nice addition around here and in the store. I always hated putting some generic regular fuse holder somewhere when a tractor needed it and having to just wire tie it up. You all know I'm just a little picky about things like that lol.

The safety switch connectors are here and another one I forgot I found after many years of looking. The old discontinued double connector in the pic. I have some cool plans for it to use on the older L shaped regulator connector since that housing is looking like it's impossible to find any more. More details on that later.

Seems like I'll have a little time in the mornings for a few days or until they get the garage doors up in dads new barn. It's just too cold in the mornings to be out there. I spent this morning playing around with the safety switch pigtail project, will make a few dozen for the store and here in the shop and see how they go over.

I know I can use them here in the shop but not sure if peeps will use these to fix bad ones or just bypass them. I'm also not sure if peeps bypass them because there are no pigtails available (until now) or just don't care for safety switches. Some I can see being not that important but some I think are very important. More on that later when I start a post in the store section on these.

Got all the laser tools out and new batteries in them to line things up, making sure everything still works (I've had this stuff for many many years), and getting ready to move the last of my equip to the farm. I'm taking off the electrical and plumbing hats and putting on the carpenter hat lol.

We're gonna start on the inside framing Monday. It's supposed to get up to 60 today and be almost 70 next Monday - Thursday, if they don't change it in the next 10 mins...
