So that means you didn't want that smilie? You mean I'll have to find someone with thinner skin to give it to? Won't accept my apology, won't accept my smilie gift () ...ahhh...You have a thing against accepting stolen property! I shoulda known it. Ted PS: That's a genuine Starbucks cup...

I agree wholeheartedly Doug. I don't want to offend anyone. If I have offended you or anyone else please let me know. All you'll get is an :oops: I'm :sorry: . Here's a smilie if you want it, and then I'll drop the Starbucks ribbing.:respect: Restraint is not one of my better qualities...

Hey Greg I think we might need a humor or jokes forum. Or at least a thread or two that Doug can call home and drink his Starbucks and chuckle. A place we'll know we'll feel better after visiting. Everyone here has a great sense of humor and sharp wit. I keep my bandaids in the little...

Back in the last century when I lived in Huntsville the lines were so bad I could only get about 36K.:sad: Got a DirecTV PC Duo. Really helped downloads but for just surfing around it added a little delay. It was 36K upstream and up to 300K downstream. Your page request had to go to New...

Wow. In the early seventies I was logging on Mt. Hood in Oregon. We had 4 guys felling, 1 on a rubber tired skidder, 2 on a D8. I drove an AutoCar and loader (trackhoe with rotating grapple). Some places we yarded. That machine did in 10 minutes what it took us about two hours. Aint nothin...

Several years ago while researching home built three wheel cycles (chronic back problems) I came across Suzy Jackson's excellent writeup on making wet slide decals. Wet slide decals are old school. They are the kind we used on all those model airplanes and cars back in the fifties. They're...

I jumped from NTT main page and got the same tinyurl you did (yw8fqb). The Tinyurl home page says they have 54 million urls so they must create the jump as a page comes on line. They also have over 1.6 Billion hits per month. Impressive. Ted

The web site says they never expire. Ted

Thought I'd let you know why that hit and miss was so hard to start. The easiest way was to jack up one rear wheel (lugged iron) and then rotate the wheel until it fired. Wasn't easy to do in the mud.:yuk: Wish I had that tractor. It disappeared about the time they drilled for gas...

Hi guys I just wanted to let y'all know about a free redirect site that can shorten long urls into a more manageable size. Sometimes links get broken when a long url is posted and a word wrap function breaks it into more than one line. Sometimes, if it doesn't break it into multiple lines...

Shinnlinger that ain't my tractor! That's a Throwdown tractor! :brows: :yum: :yum: :brows: Heh...that's Mith's Wheel Horse. He'll probably jump in and let us know why that rim is unshod. Funny place for a spare.:) He originally posted that in a thread labeled "No more tracks"...

:wave: Glad to have you aboard Lou. Rhode Island, huh? Well, you're on the right coast...heh. Watch out for the Dougster, he'll try to trick you into drinking some Starbux.:yuk: Hey Doug I learned to sail on a little 8' centerboard aptly called a Flipper.:ohmy: :yum: :yum: If I...

Hi Brian Maybe it's because they don't want to mess up a good road.:applause: I've seen the DR TV ads for their little grader. Yours looks as if it has has a little more meat to it.:thumb: I'm convinced that washboarding is caused by worn out shocks plus the speed. Once it starts, it...

:wave: Welcome to NTT Joe. Glad to see it's nice and green on that peninsula.:whistle: It's freezing down here.:wink: Ted

Well DUH.:pat: :oops: Mith there is a lift cable at the rear of the deck. In the first pic (previous post) look just ahead of the right rear wheel. What looks like a kink in the cable is the plastic sheathing skinned back from wear at the pulley (when deck is lifted). In this pic the cable...

That's my problem, Mith. There is no lift connection at the back. It almost seems to be pivoting up on the rear gage wheels. I'll know more when I go up a couple of links on the front. It should then be obvious where the rear lift should connect. I was not expecting the rear lift to be...

The first is mid height, blades engaged. Heh...that belt angle looks OK to me.:huh: I think I already know what the problem is.:pat: The second one is in transport with the blades engaged. And the last with the blades disengaged. Before I 'adjusted' the lift pin and engagement pins, I...

Hi Jim I'm in a little bit of a hurry right now but to update you on the deck prob. The brake bar on the rear of the deck was frozen. Brake pads are missing. The chain link at the lift was pinned on the wrong side of the lift lever, causing the engage/disengage breakover (for lack of a...

Gee Doug, thanks. (shuffles feet,:o kicks dirt) I'm glad you liked it.:cool: I would like to research that WartHog/Deere machine. Great job with Photoshop (I presume). The other machines exist. The WH/D almost looks like a fancy carnival ride with the mowers added. If I wuz drivin' that...

Y'all know that I was 15 years old before I figured out that Dang Yankees wuz two words not one?:wink: Since we're s'posed to end the year with a smile on our face. Sometimes it's hard to find something :yum: on the web that's undirty. A couple of unknowns having fun.:yum: Ted...
