Excellent workmanship! I like how you kept the tractor’s integrity and made a functional piece of art for it.

Nice job. On mine I used 1/4" for the windshield in case of rocks, broken straps etc. and 1/8" otherwise.

Great job. You will want to fill in closer around the hood. While driving/plowing the wind comes in there bad. Foam tape will help over the hood. I used a pool noodle in bigger areas.

Yes, great idea! I was thinking either a pool noodle or tubular pipe insulation since it has those sticky sides to them along with some caulking as well. So far it’s been nice but these improvements are on my to-do list. Thanks for watching!

I have a Ck2610 and thinking on building a cab now. We get lots of days over 115F so might need to toss a portable DC air conditioner in there.

@@markstokes6075 I appreciate it. And I did look into them a little. I was thinking something that would work would be a rooftop AC system that you typically find on a camper/RV or even one for a 18-wheeler cab. But my concern is that the alternator isn’t large enough. I’ll be honest, I didn’t do a lot of looking into it but I need to. If you think of any good ideas I’m all ears.

Is the engine noise better or worse inside the cab

No, I really don’t notice an increase. I think if I were to seal the cab up it would help dampen the noise from the engine and the occasional vibration from the plexiglass.
