Thanks for the tips! Bill

What did you do to get the stickers off? I would like to get some of the warnings etc especially the California cancer one off. That one really annoys me! Bill

When I read these stories of long waits I realize how fortunate I was to be able to order in Jan 2021 and get it about a month later. When i decided to order a LP grapple in april 2021 stuff and started to back up and in the fall after several changes in dates i canceled and bought the virnig...

I remember many years ago doing a valve job on a ford v6 in a mustang. After it would overheat and blow off thru the radiator cap and it hadn't overheated before the valve job. So I ask a friend that was a better mechanic than me and he said to re torgue the heads as he figured it was blowing...

Looking good so far! Bill

I will be 69 next month. I have been working on my own and others vehicles since a teenager. 19 years ago for my 50th birthday I put up my 32 x 40 shop with 12' high walls so I could have a lift. That was the end of laying in the driveway but the last 6 months I have paid for 2 oil changes my...

Good suggestion. Bill

I have a couple of those style and I find they work very good. The one I always use to do the wifes subaru to get up by the exhaust. Bill

I have been running a 1950 8N like you say for 25 years until last year when i bought the L2501DT for it's similar size. Kept the 8N and it still is the tractor for using in the woods for firewood and doing things when the backhoe is on the kubota. N is still my snow plow tractor too. Bill

Do those tires go on backwards to a normal tractor for a reason? Bill

Here is an article on that type of primer. https://weldingintro.com/best-weld-through-primers/ Bill

I haven't used it myself but after doing some body work I heard there is weld thru primer used in automotive work. It supposedly used to coat parts then when welding the back sides don't rust. Something maybe you could try when you laminate those to weld them on if you haven't already? Bill

I paid about $225 for the valve and another $20 or so for the power beyond. Bill

This is the levers but I put a slight bend in them so they are a little further apart. I mounted my top and tilt valve here on the right fender where the handle holes are as i have a bad right shoulder. Bill

Is this one of those Bucher valves I bought from Summitt for my project? It has a B molded in there. Bill

They look a lot better, I hope you took some beer along! bill

I was building my 32x 40 x12 high garage 19 years ago this spring. I built one for raising the walls in 16 ft sections and the trusses. I made it from a pallet rack end frame and attached to the 3pt on my 8N. Used a electric winch mounted down by the 3 point to raise things. Still lays around by...

I have been thinking about something like this only with several X shapes connected with side boards with the 16" spacing. I figured the X would keep it from rolling but then figured there would be a lot more handling. So I am sticking with picking with forks on the back of the 8N and I have a...

I bought a hypertherm 45 about 12 yrs ago as we had the same model in our shop at work and liked it. It makes even wife smile when she wants some garden art cut out of sheet metal. Including some shapes out of 1/2 plate to put under pots and our fire ring to make mowing/trimming easier. (She...

I have to agree Dave, I always check for ac when checking any charging system. Even small engine and motorcycle I have found it to be helpful. I usually grab my fluke 87 not the cheap meter. Bill
