Hello!

I'm 20, and I'm writing from Italy... I first tell to you everybody that my English is bad, so I hope that you didn't have nightmares when you will read this  Wink 

I decided to register myself because in Italy there aren't a lot of people that share this passion with me... and now, that I decided to build a tractor, I can't find information here in my count about "how to do".
But I want it! So, I'm sure that with all good information on this forum,I will do a nice job.
What else about me? I'm studing mechanical engineering on Ancona, a city of my country... and I'm also a farmer  Very Happy 

Ok, thank to you all for reading!

Bye!

Wow, thank you all!

@Redlinemotorsport, I haven't done anything until now, because here there aren't a lot of garden tractors, so I can't find nothing for start. But I decided to build a tractor from 0, whit some old components in my farm.
For example, I think to use a tecumseh engine 3,5 hp take from an old manual lawn mower ad for the transmission I want to use some belts whit different pulleys; I will shift moving the belt tensioner on the right "gear"....
This is why I can't have an usual transaxle  lol! 

Don't worry if you don't understand what I mean; I will post some design and projects soon.

Bye!

Oh, sorry... I have also an old Lombardini engine like this:
Hi from Italy! 171-Sonstige_Motor_Ruggerini_RF80-740111-0

Here in Italy we have a lot of engines like this.... it isn't very power, but it have an uncredible torque!!

If my tractor will work, I think to use this engine....  Cool

Thanks! But... The problem is to find an engine at good price... I will first try with my old Tecumseh... ITF it will work, i will buy a good engine. Thank you for the advice!
