    Well, one thing about living in the central part of Kentucky that I'd never think I would need to worry about WAS a hurricane.:hide: That all changed last sunday (sept 14th) Hurricane Ike paid us a visit:eek: We had a prediction of wind gusting to 30+ mph. NO ONE expected what was to...

    Howdy from Kentucky

    Howdy gang. Sorry for a long absense. I'll try to be around here more often. Health has been good. Work has been almost overwhelming this summer.

    #25 Massey Ferguson 3-point disc!

    Howdy gang! Been swamped the last few days. Feeling good, and getting skinny. Lost 26 lbs so far. I finally got around to painting my old disc. It's a #25 Massey Ferguson 7'-6" now. It WAS 8'-10" when I bought it. Too wide to haul, I pulled the axles, cut 7-1/2" off each and then...

    Farmwithjunk's day off!

    With all this doctorin' and stuff goin' on, I wanted ONE DAY of play time where NO ONE 'cept me knows what I'm up to. Being the fast living, wild and crazy guy that I am, I spent the first half of the day getting paint on my new fenders. The MF150 has an original fender that took a shot from...

    Massey Ferguson #39 2-row corn planter

    No pictures (YET). But it's on the way! I've been looking for various Massey Ferguson implements that match up with the 150. I've got a #66 2X14" plow, a #25 7'-10" 3-point disc, a #24 baler. I've got a line on a MF soil scoop but it's not a done deal yet. I've had my ear to the ground for...

    Little help please

    OK.. I'm normally not one to ask for help and definately not one to want sympathy, but a simple prayer or two sure won't upset the delicate balance of nature. I found out this afternoon that in addition to the blood sugar issues, I've been diagnosed with an advanced case of prostate cancer...

    New trailer!

    Either it's sheer boredom or total mayhem:pat: The 2 new Massey's are on the way. My old goosenecks are too small for them. So, I ordered a new Corn Pro 20,000gvwr 20'er, sold one of the 14,000 Ridgelines, and bought a 12,000 Lawrimore bumper pull low deck to haul the Massey 150 on. Below...
