    Implement corral

    :yum: :yum: :yum: In the true Zen spirit, I keep mine all close together and with-in visual range of the house to remind my wife just what MY tractoritis has given us.:thumb: It's all in how you market yourself!:tiphat: :smartass:

    Speed painting!

    In one line, here's what I know about it. 1.) Now, when I get some info, I'll pass it on. NAPA sells theirs under the trade name of "starfire" I think. It was recommended by a gentleman that paints airplanes. Says it's as tough as a $2 steak, easy to apply, safer than paints with...

    Speed painting!

    Some of my earliest attempts at painting LOOK like they were painted with a roller....:yum: Next MAJOR paint project will be when I finally get around to restoring dads ol' Ferguson F-40. I'm working myself towards a single stage urethane. Probably a NAPA paint product.

    All depends.... Some subsoilers pull harder than others. The point has something to do with that. I'd say this one will pull like an anchor. Soil and soil conditions play into the equasion. Operating depth will too. The ground I'm going to use this one on is deep topsoil over hard clay...

    No pictures of it, other than the glimpse you get in the background, but that's a trailer hitch for pulling a gooseneck with a 3-point hitch/receiver hitch for moving a bumper hitch trailer combo. That's "Oliver Green" if anyone ask's. :thumb:

    You want to shatter the hardpan UNDER the surface (hence the name SUBSOILER) There will be a thin cut all the way to the surface, but if you rip "mud", the only effect is right where the shank of the subsoiler travels. Also, with muddy soil, the "cut" tends to close shut almost immediately. By...

    Haven't used it yet. Too wet. Looking at mid spring a'fore it gets dry enough. Subsoiling and/or deep ripping works best when the soil is dry enough to shatter instead of simply cutting a slice through the mud.

    I've managed to "grieviously offend" 3 or 4 people, and a couple moderators. Oddly enough, I have one moderator who happens to agree with me in most of the head-butting I've been involved in. He typically doesn't agree with ANYONE. I figure that I'm too old and too set in my ways to change...

    Speed painting!

    (What I did on my vacation, day #1) A few years ago, I sold my subsoiler. Didn't think I'd ever need one again. Well, that was a mistake:badidea: So, I bought one on EBAY. Sale closed last night just before 9PM. Seller is only a 15 minute drive from my house. We made arraingments to...

    How many free guess's do we each get about which site you're referring to?:waiting: I'm kinda on thin ice over there too.:mrgreen: And don't you know how bad that bothers me:moon3:

    They say "you get what you pay for". :whistle: Well, I'm not so sure about that. You won't get "it" unless you pay for it, but by the same token, you don't ALWAYS get the quality you expect just because you pay a premium price. I try to stick with better brands with a reputation of quality...

    There's a few key phrases that just about ALWAYS get me "inspired". Most of them start with "You can't....." :badidea: Oh yes I can too :thumb:

    Who Restores their Tractors ?

    Here's another one I painted. 1979 Deere 2440. Also owned since new. 61 HP and a fuel hog of sorts, but a good tractor none the less. It's just hitting 4500 hours. It's now going to be the smallest of the full-timers on the mowing fleet.

    OK Dougster, ONE MORE TIME.....:waiting: The THREAD wasn't deleted. Only MY post. (Even though several post's were far more personal in nature, and IMHO, more "offensive") Then the thread was padlocked. Then I get the semi-quasi-explainatory PM from the mod telling me I'm a threat to the...

    Twernt banned, just deleted a post, (approx. 30 times now) then the thread was locked. I did get a PM/lecture from one of the mods. Seems a couple of them are at odds too. It's only a matter of time before that site implodes. I'll gladly be the one that lights the fuse.
