    ratchet parts

    Deere never made their own hand tools (for the most part) but instead rebadged others. They usually only put their name on quality stuff: I would Google some pictures of ratchets in the same era from other ratchet manufacturers (Stanley, Snap-On, Mac, S-K, etc.). I'll bet one of them will match...

    Dowsing Rods

    When I worked at a building supply store, a driller came in and was talling to one of the other employes on the desk about the witcher that worked with him. He said that he himself never had the gift. My co-worker asked, 'Can he wear a watch?', and the driller said, 'No, unless it' s digital'...

    Needing part for 268 NH baler

    Unless I'm completely misinterpreting, you're referring to the pickup drive 'sprocket' (for chain), not a 'gear'. Replaced mine a few years ago because the teeth were so worn. It's just a standard roller chain sprocket - RC40 if I remember right (might be RC60?). Measure the chain pitch between...

    Ford 860 Exhaust Glowing Hot

    Don't have much to add to what others have said, but how does it behave under less load? Bush hogging can take a lot of power if you're really plowing through so heavy brush, and the 860 isn't an overly large tractor, nor does it have the torque of a similarly-sized diesel. I can trim grass or...

    Best tool for this risky cut in metal

    I've dropped a few tanks that were from completely rusted-out wrecks. As you say, new straps required, and often have to re-locate them slightly to the side of the old ones and bolt up through the floor as the original bolts will break off or be seized. But I'd still opt for that route on most...

    Best tool for this risky cut in metal

    I've cut in the fuel tank area with a grinder and zip disc a few times, but probably not something that should be recommended. I'd also recommend a nibbler if you have room to get it in there. Or score it several times (maybe with a grinder zip disc not going all the way through) , drill holes...

    When did you last use one of these?

    I hadn't used mine in years, then got it out again for the first time a couple of weeks ago. Tiling the new shower wall with glass tiles: I use the normal tile scoring tool for the top, but uses one of these to score the edges. Seemed to give a better chance of a nice, clean break. With the dang...

    Have you ever ran a Shaper?

    Haven't myself, but the machine shop I take my large circular saw blades to to get hammered/tensioned has one. They say it's still a good/efficient way to make all the internal blind keyways they use on some of their saw collars.

    What implements for hay are you guys using for higher volume?

    This topic came up a few months ago and started a debate on the NH bale wagon vs. accumulator vs. kicker. I think it all very much depends on your farm layout, travel distances, barn type/clearance, and final destination. If you're having to stack in your own barn, the NH stackliner bale wagons...

    Oliver Plough

    Just curious: Are you asking because you just bought the one that sold at the auction in Port Hope, Ontario? If so I was bidding against you for a bit.

    Cement anchor bolts question

    You really want to look closely at the spec's they call for on those anchor bolts. I'm usually all for pushing the limits of safety and bypassing recommendations, but jib cranes are a little different: Even small jib cranes put a boat-load of overturning moment on a pad and quite a lot of uplift...

    Cleaning outside of IH I20 brass carb

    I'm sure you'll get a pile of different ideas - all of them good. But here's mine: Most GM dealers sell their Delco brand of penetrating fluid which is absolutely top-notch - way better than Kroil or PB blaster. And it's also great at cleaning up brass/bronze: If you spray down brass in it, let...

    Roofing matrerial ; a discussion .

    Steel all the way in my opinion (if you plan on owning the house for more than 15 (years). If using conventional steel with exposed fasteners, make sure you get the screws that have the rubber washer captured under a domed steel washer. Some companies sell roofing screws with a flat face on the...

    Need parts help

    Good luck with it. It's a shame that Sparex doesn't sell direct, but (at least around here) every dealer orders from Sparex about once a week. Or you can Google that part number and find a site that will sell them. Sparex is a good resource for any Fordson parts: They're one of the biggest...

    Need parts help

    I'm 99% sure they're the same as the regular major with the same diesel. In which case Sparex sells them, and any dealer/supplier of your choice can order from sparex. See link: https://ca.sparex.com/push-rod-adjuster-127983.html

    What would this plow be called or classified as ?

    Every time someone asks about one of those there's always a lot of confusion what its actual name is. Some folks call it a disc plow, but others say that a true disc plow has separate discs on individual axles, not a shared gang like that. Others (like me) call it a 'one-way disc' because that's...

    Help Identifying Old Haybine

    I once bought a sickle mower from a guy in Quebec who had one of those (not sure if it was the same model). I asked him about it and he said it crimped well - hay dried better using it than his old NH (I don't know what the NH was). Even so. I still don't think I'd be paying much more than scrap...

    Disk Advice

    I'd be looking at the Massey 3 pt. hitch discs, 6' wide. The Massey mounted discs were superb (their model 25 was the most popular - made for many decades): There were oodles sold, they dug in as well or better than several much heavier discs. All parts are still available. They uses a...

    its not a tool but ,

    Last one I got I had to have a local barber order for me. I finally stopped using it and went to the newer style of razor about 5 years ago.

    "V" belts

    Further to my last post: Check out the Contitech options for Kevlar/aramid chord V-belts. They offer a few kevlar/aramid options. I'm a fan of their 'Torque-Team P' series for some equipment, but they have several types. Some are designed with varying section properties that are intended to...
