I took a used Highland Park combo unit that had a trim saw and 2 wheels on it. I made 5 wheels fit where there were 4. That wasn't enough either. So when I came across another unit, (it just happened to be the same make and model, so now they match.) I did the same with 4 wheels where there were 2. Now I have 9 wheels and everything works great. Actually this is an earlier photo, now I switched out the 1800 wheel and added a 15,000. I like it better that way. Don't even need the polishing disks now. Both units have a polishing disk on the ends also. My husband refurbished and painted both of them. He also put the drip system with a 5 gallon water heater attached. Both units drain out to the yard and water the grass. We used 2 speed swamp cooler motors on them. I'm a happy camper. Amy

Thanks everyone, I'll pass this on to my husband. He is really the one responsible for my hardware.
