    Resurfacing Ford 1710 head

    Alexander's Ford is a re-ferbishing facility in E. Texas. One of the things they do is to fix cracked heads. Years ago I had a 4 cyl. 4000 and the head was cracked. They said that was a problem with those heads. I toured their machine shop, quite large, and was impressed with their quality...

    Drum Mower and MF 135 or Ford 3000 Tractor?

    I have a 6' because it covers the tire width. It would run on my 3000 but I use my 3910 with added front end weights for 2 reasons: 1. For that width, you need to keep the left front tire on the ground when the cutter is in the cut position but not sitting on the ground; 2. The 3 pt lift is...

    110 volt welder recommendations

    I have the Farmhand or something like that name from TSC. Works OK on .030 rosin core wire but .035 is a bit large and doesn't make very good welds. It works ok for the price I paid for it.

    Computer software outdated.

    Well I pulled up my internet banking account and found some really crazy things on site...had never seen such before. I made an appointment with a bank employee and she said that my software was too old to interface with their bank's software/iternet convenience. I have a couple of imacs and...

    More on the Case-IH 895

    Sometimes sitting on the fence get the privates irritated and you have to do something........ I've been checking around and the 895 is new enough and as the X95 seems to be, very reliable and lots of beef in the components.....the 395 I bought last year is a testament to that and one of the...

    Login Problem

    I couldn't find any where to ask this question so I posted here and Sweeet Feet suggested Feedback Form in the left margin of the forum. I tried it twice and it won't send. Maybe here it can get some attention and I can get it fixed..... ----------------- I bought a new computer and have...

    Inexspensive Round Baler

    Both mine I bought for the same $5k with about 20 years of age and who knows how many thousands of bales, purchases some 20 years apart. I consider that cheap when you price out a new one.

    Inexspensive Round Baler

    I had a Hesston and 2 JD rollers over the years. The Hesston was problematic. the JDs have served me well....keep the chains lubed, park it out of the weather...sun and rain, take the tension off the belts when not in use....just crack the gate lift cylinder before you shut the tractor off and...

    How evaluate used disk?

    Axles that roll with a flip of the wrist....considering the length and all and checking the bearings for functional correctness, no bent axles...of the disc gang. Course you had rather not have any broken discs.

    Welding on a FEL bucket.

    Yepper. No biggie. Get your grasp hook....I use 5/16 or 3/8 which is plenty for my current requirements, grind off the paint where you want to mount it, get out your welder....I used .030 MIG wire, weld that sucker on. Get out a rattle can of paint and make it look pretty. No big deal. I...

    Assembly Lube Use in Engine Rebuild Question

    I remember with the plugs and distributor out, a drill on a long shaft with a flat blade welded on the end, you stick it down the dist hole and run the drill....since the dist usually mounts on the top of the oil pump shaft you can run up a few PSI throughout the whole engine before starting.

    Drill Bit and Saw Blade Recommendations

    I use HF Titanium coated bits on a drill press with slow speed, lots of hand pressure, lots of cutting oil, with good results. Been a long time since I wore out a bit. I use bi-metallic, variable pitch/tooth, blades....variance between 18 and 24 TPI. Years ago I bought a pair of what I said...

    Wrench warranty

    I had a little HF $30, nice quality, swivel head, ratcheting, 5 pieces 3/8-5/8 and one went bad. Took it back to the store and the manager took it went to the display for that item got another and handed it to me with his condolences. So a few weeks later, my $56 HF battery charger quit...
