MF vs New Idea 3 point hay rake
The MF's were available with different pulleys to accommodate different PTO speeds and thus work with either standard 540 PTO or the (slower) ground-drive PTO. Belt sheaves are standard, available at any TSC or industrial supply. If you need a different speed, just spec one with the bore and...- DanielW

Bush Hog Disc
Very much dependent on the soil type. But a fair bit of HP to pull it effectively if running full depth. Offset discs pull way harder than regular tandem discs. And those Bush Hog built offset discs were waaay more heavily-built than most other offsets. If I remember right, the square steel that...- DanielW

8N bogs down
The missing port mentioned above is definitely a common problem with new/aftermarket carbs. And can cause exactly the type of issues you describe. But keep in mind that's not the only concern with aftermarket carbs. There are lots of folks on here who have found the main jet orifice was too...- DanielW

Shuttle Shift Tractors ????
I think Vito's response pretty much nails it: It boils down to how much you want to spend. I'm certainly no expert, but I've baled (or at least run tractors) with many of the options discussed: At our Northern farm we bale with a selection of old-school, conventional dry-clutch, independent-PTO...- DanielW

Anyone re-skin a 1950's shop?
If you get snow loads, I'd want new steel on the roof. Especially for a lower slope like that. Old steel with a bit of surface rust (even after paint) has more texture/friction, and tends to hold a lot more snow. New steel let's it slide right off. I'd not be worried about the siding. Maybe... -

Anyone re-skin a 1950's shop?
I thought the same thing. 2x6's on their flats at what looks like 24" spacing and 8'-10' truss centres. Don't think I'd want to try that here. My guess is the OP is somewhere that doesn't get a lot of snow load. But if kit works, it works. -

851 auto tie. New Holland
I feel the same way personally, but I also think it's dependent on your feeding methods and climate. I always pull the twine off while the bale's on the loader, so it being under the bale doesn't matter because it's in the air anyway. But in a climate that stays below freezing all winter, net...- DanielW

Anyone re-skin a 1950's shop?
I'd be looking around at other quotes, and maybe start with just the roof. $60k sounds stupidly high. There are some cheaper options you could consider too. Around here, if you go to the regular 'Roof Mart' or Home Depot type places or ask many roofing-specific contractors, they'll gouge you... -

C 28 mower
Rick is correct. I have two C28's and one C32 (the trail version of the same mower) and they use C-section belts. Mind you, on one of the C28's, back when my grandfather used it the belt still flipped. My grandfather just ran it like that as it still worked (and that one was the beater mower he...- DanielW

Ford 8N replacement gas tank cap?
Had the same thing with a replacement cap on our 2N. Not sure why, but two different replacement caps were loose and wobbly. Turned out a cap for an old steel Mercury outboard boat tank fit and sealed perfectly - just have to remember to keep the vent open.- DanielW

Super M
That was my first thought. Somehow back-feeding to the coil (or faulty switch). But I think we'd need a bit more info on what's meant by, 'trouble shutting off'. Does the kill switch seemingly do nothing? In which case I'd suspect a wiring/back-feeding issue. Or does it kind of try to die and...- DanielW

Cement Mixer Advice
That's probably dependent on whether by, "hire the job done", you mean just hiring in the ready mix truck, or actually hiring a finishing contractor to do the whole kit/caboodle. If hiring a concrete finisher to do everything, yes: You'll likely have to wait. But if you're just looking to bring... -

Cement Mixer Advice
I have several cement mixer apparati. One three-point model, one large gas-powered one (a little larger than the three point one), two smaller gas powered ones (just a little larger than your standard homeowner-sized mixer), and a couple of 120V 3.5-yard homeowner mixers. I've poured a lot of... -

Gehl 309/"Scavenger" Spreaders? Lime?
We've been looking for a better way to spread lime screenings at our Northern farm for ages. Up there in the Canadian Shield the soil is so acidic it really needs a couple tons per acre applied every 5 years or so, else the aluminum phytotoxicity wreaks havoc with things - especially potassium...- DanielW

Spring Resets on Rollover Plow
How do folks, We've been pondering a rollover plow for our Northern farm for years. Most of our land there is very steep/hilly, much of it stupidly so. And it's all exceptionally rocky - it seems every thirty yards you're turning over a stone the size of a smart-car or jamming on bedrock (which...- DanielW
