About a week ago, I brought all those large rocks from the bottom of the hill to the top; (see 3/13 post above).  I'm going to see if I can sell some of them on CL.

A load control valve makes a fair amount of sense in a few applications.  It's not fool proof but is safer than relying on hoses.

A spring ritual, several loader buckets of rocks.  

We have a long row of field stones on the farm.  What I find interesting is the older parts of it have small stones, like golf ball size.  My theory is even the smaller rocks damaged late 1800’s/early 1900’s equipment, and/or small children were out there helping as well.

Nice John Deere. Those tractors have stood the test of time.

My dad has two 850s, one with a loader.

That is pretty wood
I'm guessing the color is from minerals in the soil?

Plans for the future? Table or?

Somebody in another thread said it was caused by some sort of beetle.  All I know is that it was ridden with Black Ants; the sawyer charged me $10 for 4 cans of ant killer while sawing it up.  

It's up on CL to be sold.

That is spalted maple.  The discoloring is fungus and early decay.  The tree is sick from insect damage.  I have used it for a few projects, one being an island table for a customer.Attachment Attached File

Remember all those rocks I dug up out of a dump pile at the bottom of my hill?  Ref. post #9, this page etc.  Well, this morning I loaded them all up for a customer; sold them all for $250!



The tub skid contents; I spent about 2 hours last night and about 20 minutes this morning picking these rocks up around my yard.  





Find the Copperhead in this pic!

Pulled the mower to the garage after the spindle broke.
Was turning on a good off camber, low side broke and I somehow ended up off the tractor with one foot on the ground and one on the deck. Think I have found the parts online, but the grass will be knee high before I get the stuff thoAttachment Attached File

Also used it to replace the mower blades that the wife wiped out last weekend when she drove up a trailer tongue, shearing off coupler handle and chains

I raised it and set it on jack stands, 5 min. later fixed, bearing towers did not crack
