    Old Ford Tractor

    I purchased this old Ford 601 tractor the other day, it had a loader on it which I took off today. There was a tree grown thru the front of the loader and the radiator/nose of the tractor. It took about an hour to get the tree out after I got the loader off. Anyway I'm in the assessment stage...

    Button with anchor on it.

    Yesterday I found a flat button with an anchor and chain on the front, it is about the size of a quarter. No discernible writing on the back. If anyone knows the history (ID) of this button I would appreciate any information you might give. Thanks John in Virginia

    Question....about setting up the Explorer

    When I'm in my house or shop and I try to go thru some of the programs on the Explorer (SE PRO) the constant noise from close metallic objects is very distracting. What I would like to know is whether or not it is okay to disconnect the coil/shaft from the control head and then go thru the...

    Getting ready for winter!!

    I like to play in the woods, splitting wood with a sledge ax and hammer is my cardiac exercise. One pile is wild cherry and the other pile is locust.. When I finish all the trees it will likely be enough to fill up a large tractor trailer dump body with wood. Locust is my favorite, especially...
