Hey guys and gals,

I don't know about all of you, but I sure like to see pictures of other machines working. I'll start with a few of mine, and update as I take more. I usually forget to take any because I'm generally pretty busy, but I've been getting better. Anyway, feel free to post up some pics of your machines, feel free to share a bit of info about them!

Here's my '64 MF35 Utility, MF99 loader with DA lift cylinders fitted, and my JD25A flail mower on the rear. Tires are calcium loaded and have cast weights. Recently cut down an old dead pine tree that was covered in poison ivy vines. I didn't touch hardly any of it, I just chained my forklift forks to the bucket (not ideal, but it works) and hauled it away. The other pic is of my field after being cut down with the beat up old flail mower. Weeds were about as high as the hood and very dense.

Nice looking machine, but that sure doesn't look like a '79 F350 to me.

My father had a '79 F150 with a four speed, granny first gear, 4x4, with a 351M under the hood. That truck would push snow like no other. Pulled like crazy too!

Let's see your '79!

Another of my Utility lifting a scrap mower to head off to the junkyard.

IMG_2422.JPG this a ferguson 35 I bought, that had been sitting up for 3-4 years. After cleaning up fuel system from end to end new dist cap, plugs, points and a little tweaking she is runing like a charm. Had input and advice from several guys on this site

IMG_2349.JPG. This is a mf 135 also had been sitting up for about three years. Never tractors would run when I got them. Both have served well over the years and time for them to have some TLC.

My 1951 ferguson To20 talked the wife into letting the tractor be in the wedding if I temporarily painted it to match the wedding colors. FB_IMG_1492231030287.jpg20131021_155636.jpg

Nice pics! Very cool that the 20 made it into the wedding!

Here is just one of the many buckets of rocks I've pried out of my front yard. Got tired of dulling my mower blades constantly.

I was also trying hard to pick out these heavy stones from my front yard, which was left over after the construction works. Finally, my neighbor helped me out with his loader to get rid of them. They would hardly rise from the ground and we could raise it only up to 2 off the floor. With much effort and time, we could get it where I wanted it to be.
A good looking face for your house is essential and it痴 something that requires careful and proper planning. As I can see from the pictures, you have got a pretty good spot to come up with a beautiful landscape design. Owning a house was one of my dreams and I have worked really hard for it. Even Though I had to face some serious financial bumps on my path (I知 a widowed mom and am the only earning member in my family), I finally succeeded. Now myself along with my two beautiful princesses are living in our dream home. I was very careful about choosing even the tiniest element of our home, the doors, windows, deck? That I needed everything so perfect and I took my time on each one of them. For the past few months, I have been working on my front yard. I had some confusion at the start and most of my efforts to make it up went in vain that made me quite upset. After much discussions in my friend's circle, I am now planning to go for a residential landscape construction calgary, where one of my friends quoted her contract for backyard maintenance and had a fruitful experience.

A couple of the more unusual jobs our machines have helped us with.

Needed to remove a good engine and transmission from a 300SE - sold to a deserving enthusiast:

Had to remove a heavy cast-iron wheel with water-filled tyre from our loader - for replacement lower arm mount and brake repairs:

Ripping dry, hard ground - mostly clay - to allow drott (tracked loader) to dig and remove soil whilst building dam:
Added weight for ripper.jpg

Complete rear suspension assembly removed from a 300E for another deserving enthusiast:

Rest break - whilst building dam:
Taking a break.jpg

They must have been watching the drott busy - tramping the dam wall!

I need some more action pics - as soon as spring gets closer and the days become a bit longer.
