    changing jd 7000 38 to 30

    Had my 7000 narrowed down to a 32 and it works OK. I have been using a 443 corn head and does a good job. My newer combine has wide tires and I am glad for the extra spacing between the rows. Amost wish the rows were a bit wider.

    Any Ideas?

    I have a forklift attachment that fits a skid steer or my loader. I just put the forks under the tire and a a chain or strap around the tire to keep them from tipping. My tires are big 42 inch rims. BTW do not try to put them on by yourself.

    cold temps--again

    I am glad that a lot of folks are enjoying this cool weather with me. It is a comfortable minus 12 degrees here now. I had a minor flood emergency in the house at 4am when the washing machine hose broke but we took care that in a few minutes. At least it is warm in the house and the cows are fed...

    Shop vac for cleanning combine used in emergency

    When my old shop vac gave up the ghost I broke down and bought a new one. I haven't used it on my tractor or combine yet but it sure was handy at 4am today. I heard a loud bang that caused me to get up and check the place. Saw nothing wrong except the water pressure was very low. Opened the...

    CDL revisited

    Why is everyone so afraid to see their medical provider and get their medical card for the CDL? If you have a condition that prevents you from getting a health certificate then you should definately not be driving any truck anywhere.I hope no one is so dumb that they would argue with me on that...

    Old Man Winter is hanging on with a vengence.

    I know where Windom is, just south of Prattsville. It always snows there, I think even in the summer. As I remember no one live there in the winter and just NYC tourist in the summer. I seem to recall that the village was flooded a couple of years ago. Just move .

    CDL Headaches

    L C just go to your Dr. and get your checkup and then send the information to your DMV. The law says you need to carry a health certificate [a little card] with you when driving commercial vehicles. If your DR. says you are not healthy enough to drive a truck then you should not. I do think you...

    20 guage question

    It is OK to use rifled slugs in you 20 gauge shotgun. My first new gun was a Mossburg 20 gauge that I bought new when I was 16 and I hunted and took deer with it many times. Pretty accurate out to about 60 yards. Use the open choke setting when using slugs and modified with buckshot. These are...
