Hey Matt! Add me to the list for Saturday. Looking forward to visiting with everyone. MO-Iron

I'm still here! Soon after I made my original post, a local cabinet maker made me an offer that I couldn't refuse. The money from the Bellsaw bought me a nice 511AX. MO-Iron

Thought that I had better check-in and have Matt put me on the list for Saturday. Mo-Iron

I should arrive about 10:00 on Saturday. I haven't spoke with Stumpy lately, but hopefully we will have my MS460 to play with.:msp_biggrin: MO-Iron

Thought that I would drop in and say hi to everyone! After the drought finished off any chance of a second hay cutting, we decided to resurrect the old construction company. We have stayed really busy till last week. Following my normal luck, when the cooler temperatures finally hit, we...

With this early of a start, I should have all my work done before the October GTG.:laugh: Put me on the list! First two hay fields are on the ground. Hey Les, do you have the dates on the Timberfest? I'm going to call Allen and tell him to make room for me for that weekend. MO-Iron

I was taught to tell the difference between white and green ash by the bud scar. The bud scar will make a horse shoe shape around the bud on a white ash. The bud scar on a green ash will be shield shaped just under the bud. Mo-Iron

Hi all, Retirement sure didn't last long! Friend of mine came up with a medical problem the week after Dan's GTG and I am back in the saddle running a High School Ag. Shop again. I've tried to check the site a few times a week, but sure have fell behind on the news. Really sorry to...

I will be arriving early afternoon on Saturday. Let me know what I can bring to contribute to supper. I will check my PM before I leave the house (about noon) if y'all need me to pick anything up on the way down. MO-Iron

Looking at the weather radar, I hope that Steve and Dan are keeping their heads down tonight.

That was a GREAT place to hold a GTG and the site preparation was superb. I had a good time today, thanks Steve. MO-Iron

Hey Steve, I have a 028wb that I would gladly donate for a prize. She needs an impulse line, but has 150PSI and good fire. MO-Iron

Great pictures and story. When I was sixteen (long time ago) I took a 70 John Deere up to my grand dads farm to help him plow. We had finished the plowing and I was booming the J.D. on the trailer when grandpa walks up and is looking at the tractor with a bewildered face. He looks at me and...

Hi Hedgerow! I'm more of a plug'm in kind of a guy. If electricity isn't available, that tractor has the either assist button on the dash. It was ask what type of lift the wagon has. It's a scissor lift with a single one way cylinder. The hydraulic hose is stored in the pvc pipe mounted...

I just take an old right handed drill bit and sharpen it to cut backwards. The right handed flutes will drive the shavings down into the hole and pack tight. The shavings will increase the chance of the bit hanging and bringing the bolt out. To sharpen the bit backwards, I usually use an air...

Thought that I had better come clean. Salvage has it right! That 4-wheeler would no more pull that loaded wagon than I will get to command the next space shuttle mission. I was riding by the wagon and the idea came to mind to have a little fun with the Safety Police. The angle of the picture...

Thought I would attempt to post a test picture on the new AS format. Pictured is my preferred method of getting firewood to the house from the farm fields. The hydraulic dump wagons are 8ft X 14ft with 2 X 12 side boards. The wagons also make great brush movers when cleaning up the hay fields...

Few years ago, I attended the estate sale of one of our local chainsaw traders. The "good stuff" was sold off of tables out front of the shop. Out behind was about 250 junk saws lined up. A can of mix gas was available for anyone who wanted to try one of the junkers. I could not believe how...

Tony, I will bring a Slingerized 346xp that you can play with. MO-Iron

Hey guys! Had a great OT today that I thought I would share...New neighbor moved in about a year ago that has proven to be rather obnoxious. This is one of the guys that is always telling you how things were done back home and that all of us hillbilly farmers need to learn from his...
