| He built me a hot walker for Christmas from the ground up! It is assembled and fully operational!
ETA: He still has to put the front panel on the case and add the drop chains.

I would but he'd probably kill me! I keep him quite busy with all the bits I have him working on too. |

   Location: North Dakota | I want a hot walker! Only problem is, I know my hubby could do it too, but, it would mean I would have to be around and make decisions about it........maybe I will just show him these pictures and disappear for a couple weeks :)
Very nice. |

I know there is a rear end, a transmission, a gear reducer and a motor of some sort but I don't know the particulars! I will see if he will share and let you know!

Ok, getting information from him is like pulling teeth from a wild cat!
Here is what he told me;
it has a 5 speed transmission, the rear end can be from anything, a gear reduction box and an electric motor for a swamp color so it has two speeds.
I hope that helps! |
