td-18 Posted June 2, 2020 Author Share Posted June 2, 2020 Thanks , yes this one is nice but the next ten machines will be better ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugarmaker Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 td-18, Wow 10 more projects! Awesome. Building questions: What size are your overhead doors? What is your ceiling height? I am working on a building design. Yours is nice and clean and organized! Regards, Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
td-18 Posted June 3, 2020 Author Share Posted June 3, 2020 The building is 32wide and 50 long and the door in front is 10 high 16 wide with an 8wide 10 high on the side I hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugarmaker Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 td-18, Yes. Thanks! I have plans for a 10 foot ceiling height and 9 foot doors. My building is very near my house and another building and I dont think 12 foot eaves would look right. The only thing I have that would not fit in at this time is our camper. Its going to have to set outside! That is a very nice building you have! I was telling a friend about your work. He has my TD6 at his place and has found some better undercaraige parts that he would like to switch over. We will see. He did adjust the engine drive clutch, which had to be a real challange of standing on his head! Regards, Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hardtail Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 That is absolutely world class restoration work on the narrow gauge, that is one heavy duty engine stand that 6 cyl block is sitting on? Others lying in wait? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
td-18 Posted October 4, 2020 Author Share Posted October 4, 2020 The 6 cylinder block is for my caterpillar D5 serial number 9M27 , one of 46 made in 1939 . Hopefully it looks as good or better than the T6 when it’s done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugarmaker Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 td18, Wow does that looks sharp! Almost makes me want to rip the loader off mine and rebuild it. Maybe someday?? I am getting my shop dried in for winter. Not sure the TD6 will get in there soon? You sure have done a nice job on the restoration work on your T6! Fantastic! Thanks for the pictures and inspiration. Regards, Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sugarmaker Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 TD18, What does that weigh stripped down? about 4 ton? Also back to a building question: What do you have on your inside walls? They looks clean and bright. I am still building walls That i think I need inside the shop. Regards, Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmtruck1 Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Wow this is great! Will be the cleanest T6 out there for sure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
td-18 Posted November 3, 2020 Author Share Posted November 3, 2020 The walls are just painted concrete block and I think a bare narrow t6 is around 7500lbs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugarmaker Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 td18, Thanks for the info on the shop walls and the weight too. I need to go start and tarp my TD6 for the winter. Great looking tractor! Sure is a inspiration! Regards, Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
