One source I use to find swap meets and other information is on the internet under "Big Al's List" They list meets from all over the USA and you can type in your zip code to just check your local area.

With a rig like that they would trample more grain into the ground then they would harvest on the first few passes until they opened up a walking lane.

Give me forty acres and I'll turn this rig around!

That is a very nice looking trailer and a great looking T! The pick-up you're pulling it with ain't shabby either! Now since you've finished yours you'll have time to build one for me!

Nice video thanks for posting.
I noticed that when the one fellow attached the sprocket to the axle he only hand tightened the nut to the sprocket but used a wrench to tighten the hub cap. When we assemble something on the T's everyone worries about torque wrench settings.

That is a beautiful painting and I like the subject matter and the way you present it. The young child is a perfect fit.

One thought on framing an item that has printing on both sides would be to use double glass. By that I mean is to build a frame with glass on both sides that way you can hang up the check and when it becomes a point of discussion you just have to lift it off the wall and show both sides without remo...

Mr. Seth, have you taken a new lease on life OK Slacker... Aren't you done yet? A one armed monkey would have had that much progress by now! NO Thanksgiving turkey for you until you're done with that car! How's that Don :lol: :lol: Beautiful work as always. I'm glad you paid attention in my class.

Mr. Bingham,

More alliteration it is...

Lashers learn little lariat loops lead to terrific tire traction tendencies

I used thread myself...why last year alone it took me 4,500 spools of thread to wrap my tires but the hard part was pushing the needle through the tire!

Some fellas use rope for traction

I know it's scary but I was thinking … told you it was scary … Perhaps this should be called an under coating bowl instead of a wash bowl because all of the grease and oil floating in that water.

Here is a wild guess...

Moxon may be just the name associated with the tractor due to a one time possible owner like Moxon Textiles. Perhaps they used the tractor to maintain the grounds and it just became known as the "Moxon Tractor" One article states it was used to pull gang mowers.

Oh my I almost forgot about the Clydesdale skates. If I remember correctly Dick first engineered ice skates but they were not popular in the South so he developed Clydesdale roller skates.

Why risk your safety or the safety of others by cutting corners instead of doing it right? Buy the proper parts and rebuild the steering box and check out the front bushings too. If your not sure what to do just ask questions for assistance.

If you can access one end of the line try injecting air thru the line with your compressor. I had a line that was plugged solid with old cotton lint and dirt and tried air but ended up taking it out and running a stiff wire thru it.
