Big Sale Has Started - UPDATED 07-31-25 (01 Apr 2025)
As some of you know my dad passed away 2 months ago today, on May 31, 2025. I posted it in the Members Only section when it happened. Thanks to all of you who have offered kind words on the forum, with phone calls, and visits in person during this time.
The Big Sale is on but not like originally planned, it is a by appointment type of thing now. I don't have the manpower, or the desire to do a big event like originally planned, I just need to sell a lot of parts that are taking up too much space here. I have been told and believe we are overloaded with Wheel Horse parts like no one has ever seen. Peeps have already been coming in from different parts of the country and buying a lot of stuff due to seeing the sale page, and seeing we are the only Wheel Horse only business in the USA that does things on the scale we do. The sale will continue for awhile until I free up some more space but you may not want to wait too long as things are being sold every day and there are limits to how many of certain parts will be sold.
As it says on the page it is still under construction and the page isn't finished yet. I've had a ton of calls for parts and the Big Sale Page may help answer some questions about what is here before peeps call. I hope that page is also clear that we DO NOT SHIP anything... This is a by appointment type of thing now. Be sure to call before you come to make sure the day isn't already full with peeps scheduled to come in, and make sure what you want is still available.

First thing was to replace the cheap Harbor freight .030 flux core wire with a brand name (Lincoln) wire of the same size. then I caned the gas cup on the end of the gun so I could see the weld and use a shorter wire stub. then changed the ground clamp for stouter unit that clamped to the work or table much better. I also made a 12/3 15 foot extension cord so I could get the welder outside the shop as I don't want to burn the place down. There was a noticeable improvement in the welds with these simple mods and less splatter with the better wire. But in the end the person doing the welding still needs to know how to weld, after all it is an acquired skill.
