    Lots of tires..what does it cost daily to hire a rig like this ?

    An blank check & bottomless bank account. Mike

    Literature---Early 1930's Huber Tractor & Threasher Brochure

    I like the swing-away wind stacker option. Makes it easier to get the walkers & pans out. And that color plate looks great! Mike

    Very interesting International Harvester - what can you tell me about it?

    Looks like a F12 or 14, set up to paddle through some soft ground or sand or something. Can't be good on the axles/seals/etc. Mike

    Thread cutting & drilling lubricant

    Still using Keystone 101 cutting & cooling oil. Was still being made under another name, last I looked. Don't recall who. Can probably find an old, full Keystone can at a machine shop auction. That's where I got a couple of mine. Mike

    BN, before and after

    That sounds familiar. Are the faux generators from the custom car world? Mike

    Bearcat 1250A Grind-O-Mix w/1206 video....

    The 1206 in the video is a first for a JD guy (the "help" that was shoveling) & he would agree with you. Think he said the last IH on the farm, when it was his dad's, was a 560. Then they went Green after that. Mike

    Operation 8N - Twenty Five Years with my 8N

    That's a really cool history! I cut my teeth on my grandfather's 8N, more years ago than I'd rather do the math on. It's current whereabouts is the Princeton area of Wi. Have had two 8N's, a 9N, a 2N & a 928N since.... though not in recent times. Enjoy your red belly!! Mike

    Why does my carb leak it's been rebuilt.

    I can send you two, if you really miss working on them. :p All humor aside, updraft carbs have to be about the easiest to work on. Except for the Tillotson carb that was on my Model AA. I monkeyed with that thing all summer until I realized there was a pinhole leak in the casting...

    Bearcat 1250A Grind-O-Mix w/1206 video....

    The mill on that thing is massive! Just going on size, I can see how it can eat up the horses. Mike

    Bearcat 1250A Grind-O-Mix w/1206 video....

    Haven't seen one of these in operation, in person before. There's quite a bit of machine there! Enjoy! Mike

    1980 MF-285

    AuctionTime has five results listed for NC in the last year. Looks like the range is between $3500 & $7250. Otherwise, the prices are all over for 102 auction listings, listed all over the place, over the course of the last few years. I'll leave a link below, in case you &/or your buddy want to...

    Looking to buy a pair of binoculars

    Being a very big fan of Zeiss, I really don't like their newer binoc's. They give you a super bright, clear.... tiny field of view, for a very high price. I'd be happy with any of their field glass or scopes on up through the '70s, when they still put effort into their construction. I have an...

    How about this? Mike
