Iowa Farm Equipment
Tim, thanks for the Iowa Farm Eq website. I really enjoyed going thru it. Gave me so crazy ideas....Where did I put those darn welding rods......BobG in VA
No problem Bob! I just wish I had more money for more of those toys! It was really difficult to hold back on the grapple this time! That will be next on my list. I am not a weldor yet, but I've got a Lincoln buzz box waiting for me in the shed when I get around to it
. That Iowa Farm Equipment place is great, and they have really reasonable prices. I am using my forks all the time already.
On a side note I put a whole day in Saturday on the 6500. It was great! Took 5 inches of soil off the top of my parents front lawn to fix a drainage issue with the toothbar and bucket. Dug out a hydrant that Dad hit with the disc (yikes
). And just when you think that is enough that afternoon I went over to my uncles and dug him a 150' trench for a hydrant and electrical to an outbuilding. I love that tractor!
You will appreciate also that I got a Farmall 300 utility with loader this spring from my grandpa who has been gone for many years now. It needs a little love to bring it back to its prime, but I already have the 3 point links slid into the fast hitch and I have my post hole digger on it ready to go. Need to work on the carb a bit and change out all the fluids. It starts to get too rich after operating for 15-20 minutes so I think the inlet screw needs to be tightened down a bit to limit the gas flow.
All kinds of fun!
-Tim
