Thanks for all the information guys. Trip went well. Both weight stations I passed we closed when I went by. Had great weather for loading then had rain across most of Oklahoma. Thought I'd post a picture after getting loaded. Found a good place to get the ramps as flat a possible to keep the...

Thought I include a picture of my rig.

I'm going to central Illinois next week to pick up a Farmall Super MTA and a 4 bottom plow. Found out they require chains for securing the tractor. Not a problem as I prefer to use them anyway. Need to find out if I can use straps on the plow. Also if there are any other trailering laws to be...

We stopped there back in Nov when we went up to check out the area before I started working in Hillsboro. Multnoma Falls is fantastic. Wish I could say I took these pictures. They are from a Portland news station taken back in Dec.

Thought I would share this with TBN. We were down a Canton First Monday Trade Days this month. Canton is the largest trade days in Texas. We passed a vendor selling GeckosToes. I had to have a look. They are racks for holding Water Hoses, Air Hose, and Electrial Cords. The guy said they were...

I woak up Friday night about midnight to the sound of running water. My 50 gal propane water heater had sprung a leak. Luckly all contained in drip pan. I had already been plaining on replacing it with a tankless but was hoping do so when I was ready and done some more research. Had to go...

There has been a lot of plasma cutter information on here lately and I have enjoyed reading all the good informtion. Bought my Miller Spectrum 375 cutter back in Feb. and have enjoyed it. I have not enjoyed putting it away after using it with all the cords. I had been thinking of a cart but...

A new job found me today. It was not one I exactly wanted, but just glade to be of service. Son's truck broke down about 10 miles from home, so now I'm a the tow truck driver. Of course I had to go down about 4 miles of dirt road. Now I'm back in the car wash business. Good excuse to...
