The near tractor is a 107 (10 horsepower) and will be the 1206, the far machine is a 147 (14 horsepower) and will be the 1456.
A friend of the family has a machine shop. He took my chicken scratch design, and designed and built this part for me. I simply welded his part into the frame. It turned out very nice, and I think it would support the weight of a REAL 1206. He only built one to start with so we could work the bugs out. (We only found one little bug to work out...)
More later...
