    Oliver Superior 44 planter

    Does anyone know if the there is green anywhere else on this planter other than the boxes. I'm going to paint mine which has the usual surface rust all over with hints of paint here an there. The only green I can see is on the boxes and then red everywhere else but the rust I can't be for...

    Take sway out of grain wagon

    I've rebuilt about 10 running gears and put hay racks on all of them. Each gear I've done I put all new bolts and bushings if needed in the front. The bolts that usually pivot wear bad even when greased well. When I'm done you can go 40 plus MPH before they even think about moving around...

    rough cut oak value?

    How do I tell what Oak it is? The pieces are sawn about 1/2 thick so good planking for light duty hayracks and such. Some pieces are a little thicker and could be plained down nicely. I have about every width I can think of. 6 and 8 inch wide is common. I have a lot of 3" wide which is what...

    Designing building?

    I'm going to be building a new shed in the next 5 years. I'm looking right now at a 60' by 125 or 130' building. I'm wondering if anyone has seen a good design site for buildings on the net. What would be a good shop size for general tractor use and equipment restoration purposes. I am...

    rough cut oak value?

    I bought a bunch of rough cut oak in all different widths and lengths. It's old roughcut probably from the 50s or 60s that's been inside a long time. I'm wondering what fair value is per foot on some of this. I'm using some for myself but I had to buy the whole lot of it or none so I got all...

    Oliver 38 high rubber drill

    I just got a Oliver model 38 Drill. This has the 6.5 X 36 rubber tires which are pretty tall. I"ve only seen a very few Oliver drills of this type but I was wondering if this tire is available anywhere? I went through a few tire sites but they don"t go into Ag tires that in depth. Anyone had...
