Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!

You go NUTZ here, old "Stuffs" all around, especially where miners brought in loads of equipment, went broke and walk'd away

Fordsons, drills, lathes, mills....hit and miss motors steam boilers, ect., ect., ect.....

"He who chops his own wood warms himself twice" I think Abe said

that's my kinda thinkin don.

After I cut the wood n took some pictures I sat down on a big log in the shade with another log as a table and had me a couple burgers, baked beans n chips And a big tall glass of iced tea. while my 2 dogs sat there with me waitin for me to drop a chip or something. Something real good about sitting
down honest tired after honest work and just enjoying where you are on a good sunny day.

It's good to have old tools and know how to do things the old way.Someday,if things get bad and the new technology goes down,there's going to be a lot of people who won't know what to do to survive.Especially if the Liberals get there way and make everyone dependent on the Nanny State.

Reminds me of my place... kinda...

Gungrubber,if you like old tools,you should come to the Nittany Valley
Antique Farm Equipment Show sometime-that old Farmall is neat,but you gotta see a saw or shingle making machine run by a steam tractor.Havn't
gone to one in years,but I'll bet its still worth a visit.-TR

Sounds a lot like the Old Thresher's Reunion in Mt. Pleasant, Iowa...

do they still have the threshers south of janesville ? what about the machinery at the dairy cattle congress in waterloo ? makes me recall the younger days in farm country

Janesville... couldn't tell yeah. As for the cattle Congress... all I know is that I think they folded. Went bankrupt due to the Greyhound Park... I think... I'm pretty sure...
