Hello from Eastern Ohio

Post by nicky1 »

Hello everyone. I am retired from Ohio Cat heavy equipment department in Youngstown Ohio after 25 years service. Before that I worked on the family dairy farm. I enjoy woodworking and my garden tractors which I have collected several in the past few years. I have a 108 I am restoring now and the rest waiting in line. I have a Cub 1200, a 1966 JD round fender, a 1976 Ford LGT 100, 2 Sears from the 70s, 2 Simplicitys [1 Landlord and 1 3414 Baron] and a Cub Super LT 1554 that I mow with.
I also tinker with just about anything mechanical and some electrical and electronic. I like to find out how it works, fix it or salvage usable parts from it.
I really enjoy CCC.com.
