Tractors and wood! Show your pics

But how does it effect the way it takes a finish afterward?

It DOES affect it, and you can not put "some" finishes on wood that has been put in PEG.

I don't think that I would soak a piece of wood in antifreeze if I was going to make a table out of it. I have heard of people using it to rehydrate loose ax handles though.

^^^^ agree

Well dang it anyway.. Blew the right front moving a skid full of wood this morning, NOT the way I wanted to start the day!

Man , Tire prices are all over the place for these things.. $110 each at the low end to $345 on the high end. But I got a pair coming in the morning!

Wow blew the tire right off the tractor, did it have a tube in it?

Well it didn't actually blow it right off the tractor...:laughing:

No tube, had some big assed cracks in the sidewalls. I've been watching them in amazement for a while and knew it was just a matter of time. Left side is cracking too so I figured may as well replace them both. 10-16.5 is the size of my fronts.

I find the more expensive tires are worth it, if you want the better traction they give and want them to last!

That I understand, but I don't really have a traction problem as everything here is sand, doesn't get muddy, and I don't get any of that nasty snow! Also my tractor pretty much only gets light duty. The ones I got were on the lower end of the price, but they are tubeless and ten ply so I think I'll do fine. If I were working with it full time I'd have gone up the scale a little maybe.

Definitely a tough way to start the day - side tracked right off. Bet your glad it wasn't a skid load of roofing shingles you had up around eaves height.
