No I didn't find a bunch of wood but, I did find a tractor!
My brother's father inlaw gave him this Ford 3000 about three years ago. Since then it has been sitting out back and probably doesn't run anymore. (My bro is real good at taking on projects and then never starting them) Well I've been wanting one of my own for awhile to pull logs and doodle with instead of using my other brothers all the time. This time I benefited from him not finishing the project. I said something to him about buying it and he said buy it hell, have at it. So this weekend I'm going to pull it in the shop and see if it starts, if not I'll get it going. It's not much but it actually should do a pretty good job at what I want to do with it. Nothing like Stein's homemade Grapple skidder deal but hey it should work. I want to hook up something on the 3 pt for pulling logs, I'm thinking some sort of arm with a grapple hook on it so I can lower the 3pt put the hook on the log and raise the 3pt. Any suggestions on that part of it?
