    Bob, here's a log splitter that my uncle made. He made it many years ago, but this summer was the first time I've seen it. He aptly named it... Lickety Split. The large wheel is a former wire spool. What you don't see in the pic is a bunch of short lengths of RR track, welded in to give the...

    @jblnut... Thanks for writing back and Bob's yer uncle... It seems that Bob is everyone's favorite uncle. I'll bet you took a look at that new fire pit and thought about cooking some eggs, bacon, and some taters in your disc blade (Wok). I'd bet money on that... Looks like the s'mores worked...

    I did find this after you told me this... My Android phone is a bit different, but I can see threads that I've written in. Thanks for the help. Now I have to write on more folk's threads as I don't know how to set up a watch on each thread that I want to keep track of. I really need to revisit...

    Bob... Your thread seems quite busy... I've noticed that Kay shows up. Quite often... I like Squankum.. He always has some great advice.. Even for me... Ha. Squanky, somehow reminds me of the movie with Bill Murray, chasing gophers around a golf course with some explosives involved... I...

    Yeah, we had a neighbor like that. He owned the gravel pit in the area and owned a dozer... He also drove the school bus, but not my route... He would park his dozer on top of a hill every single night... The battery was no more... Why would you do that, if in fact, that you depend on this...

    Bob, you have to realize that the Honda 3 wheeler was just a small part of the project.. he used to cut 150 birch trees per year for firewood. He made 20 cords of firewood per year... Ten for the house and ten for his garage. His home made saw rig consisted of a conveyer made by him to...

    I have a washing machine, much like in the above pic... Same as if you watch Red Fox on Sanford and Son... They have one in their kitchen... But theirs might be a Maytag... Mine is not... We used to have a mangle. A machine of sorts to do ironing on things like terry cloth towels and...

    There... I did it. I finally got through your thread from page one. And your Luckiest Day thread, too. I promised that I'd write something in this thread once I finished. It was an incredible read. I'm not sure I can put into words in such a way to do justice to you and your writings. We...

    CNC_RICK and my shop...

    Thank you, Bob. It seems that you and nadogail are the only ones following my attempts. That's great, I'm just a newbie. and I've not picked on JBMatt lately as I should. Let's take a 1973 Chev pickup apart and replace the clutch next. (I've only watched my Dad do it once, but I was his best...

    Thank you, Bob and nadogail. My tractor story starts with my John Deere M(T). It is a vertical two-cylinder engine. The engine is square, meaning 4" bore, 4"stroke. about 101 cubic inch. A co-worker owned it for many years before I got it. He let it sit in a shed much too long and the...

    That little car looks like lots of fun. I feel for your JD 4010 with the pole. Until I read your story, I didn't know that they made a 4010 in a gas version. My John Deere MT suffered from a roof collapse. I've straightened out the sheet metal a bit.
