    Van Sickle paint opinions?

    If you do use VanSickle use either their gloss enhancer/hardener or a urethane hardener. The additives will help keep the gloss on the paint. As stated bright colors will fade faster. OTJ

    New tractor

    That is a neat looking tractor. When you get it running just leave it like it is. I don't remember seeing an Avery with a grill that looked quite like that one. It would be keeper if it were mine. OTJ

    C135 sleeves

    With any rebuild kit always check the quality of the "new" parts before assembly. I did my A several years ago and used a similar kit. The rings were already in stalled on the pistons which I found a little odd so I pulled them off and checked the rig gap in the new cylinders. The rig gaps...

    Farmall Super C Drawbar Rings

    Tie down point for sure. C's are difficult tie down if there are no implements on it. There is just nothing up front to tie too if its narrow front. OTJ

    Finally, something I actually NEED for my tool box.

    I worked one summer on the grounds crew at a golf course. You would not believe number of golf clubs would see in the trees or literally wrapped around trees. There was even the time one golfer threw his entire kit in the pool. Last time I threw a tool I broke it and that stopped that. The...

    winch

    I don't use my winches enough to have a dedicated battery for them. I fabricated a set of extra long jumper cables out of welding leads. When I use the winch I just unroll the jumper and connect to the batteries in my truck. OTJ

    Puma air compressor

    I have a Puma very similar to that for my paint booth. It works great for that but is pretty noisy. In my main shop I have a Quincy with a true five horse motor. It handles sand blasting booth just fine and is pretty quiet. The down side is the cost difference. The Quincy as almost twice...

    Case VAI Lift Cylinder Cup Seals and O-Rings

    Last time I replaced a Case VA lift cup seal I had to get it from Case/IH. Go to the Case/IH parts site and look it up. OTJ

    Pertronix ignition upgrade for IH 444 Gas

    I have let the smoke out of two Petronix in the past. One was a shorted coil. The other was my fault. I learned that when running a tractor to empty the carb don't forget to shut off the ignition after it stops... Other than that I have four tractors that run with them and no problems. As a...

    a good tyre slide hammer

    You might want to add a bead breaker to your tire repair tools. I use the bead breaker to start and then finish with the slid hammer. Ken Tool makes a good slide hammer. If you get a NON-impact rated beak breaker they aren't that expensive. Let Google be your friend. OTJ

    Looking for a Low to Medium Speed Angle Grinder

    Thanks everyone. I should have been more specific. I am looking for a 4.5 to 5" grinder. I have a couple of 7" grinders and they are beasts. I was hoping to find a single speed that was a little slower than the race grinders. Add to that, I'm cheap and don't really want to spend a ton of...

    Looking for a Low to Medium Speed Angle Grinder

    I had a Rigid/Home Depot angle grinder that I used for wire brushing. It was not as fast as my Metabo cut off grinder so it was perfect for wire wheeling. I have been looking around for a replacement and all I seem to see is high speed grinders. It seems there has been a "speed war" going on...

    Reshaping a hood

    What I have done in the past is to get several poly feed bags double them up and partially fill with sand. Put the bag on a saw horse and then beat pm the hood with a mallet or a block of wood and a hammer using the sand to conform to the shape of the hood. I would make a wooden dolly out of...

    Color me impressed!

    Ditto on the Dewalt. The in-laws have a Stihl gasser that I borrow for the really high branches, but Dewalt works for most. OTJ

    Farmall B head

    It is always great fun to watch your progress on these hidden gems. You all do a great job. You have to wonder what was done to these old tractors in the past to keep them running. I have resurrected quite few my self. Some of the "farmer" repairs are interesting. What ever it took to get...
