Re: Loader Mutt Continues...

A Fireman is a guy who's crazy enough to run INTO a burning building, while all the SANE people are running OUT! :lol: :lol: But seriously folks... I'm on a job assignment for the next few days.

Hi Guys! No immediate progress since I got back from my run to Lubbock, I'm busy getting caught up for winter... but soon. Joe- when someone says a guy "Wrote the book" on... that 'guy' was me... the holeless and in-grounds, tractions, and controllers... so I spent plenty of time running the car-to...

I think it's just you and Joe, Dave... Btw, Joe- is it passenger & freight elevators, or grain elevators? (I used to work for Mongomery... then Montgomery-KONE... a long time ago...) Grain elevators are so much fun... Changing drive belts in a thunderstorm really shows your insanity. I also learned...

Re: Winter Snow and Storm Pics

A few years ago, I got a Cub Cadet 3x from Home Depot. As I have come to learn, the Home Depot portion of the program is part of the problem. The Home Depot versions of stuff are apparently incredibly cheaply made. So, the first few years of the snowblower it worked pretty darn well. Handled most s...

Re: What I did with my tractor today! (Pic heavy please!)

Ooh... I want to guess. Looking at the direction of the mud trails, I'm thinking that left side was down in the muddy ditch. The only way to keep moving was to let the tires spin. With an open differential that left wheel down in the slippery ditch was throwing mud up forward onto everything. That'...

Give it time to heal... I was insane waiting on my knee surgery, I know how that is! But rest may be what you need, or at least find a way to sit while working. I'm dealing with back trouble, so Pain and discomfort is a constant companion.

Re: Winter Snow and Storm Pics

Ken, that view looks familiar, back when we had our Corgi I would blow off a large section of the lawn so he didn't have to drag his ***** in the snow. Used to find leaves, grass, and the occasional hunk of dirt in there. Found a rock in the neighbors driveway one time. It came out like a cannonbal...
