    Who rides motorcycles?

    I don't know whether a Honda Super Cub or Trail counts here as a motorcycle but I've been pricing them on Facebook Marketplace. There are an unusual number of ads claiming 300 miles of use. I can't believe so many people ride exactly 300 miles and decide to sell the bike. Can someone explain...

    How about a grease cartridge thread?

    My first time attempting to fill a cartridge with grease was from a five gallon pail no cartridge and no pump. I tried to hold the bottom of the barrel in the grease and suck the grease into it by slowly pulling back on the plunger. Grease went many places and very few were inside the gun...

    Brought 57 cub home today

    I just did the math to figure how some guy got an Allis Chalmers B in the bed of a pickup, over fifty years ago. The B is just over nine feet long, the wheels must have rested partly on the tailgate. I do remember, the pickup was low on the springs and it looked like a dangerous undertaking.

    A neighbor set a field on fire, the fire truck came and drove over the concrete septic tank breaking the lid.

    Brought 57 cub home today

    I've never owned a Cub but once bought a two disc semi mounted pull behind plow for one at an auction. I advertised it for resale and every call I can remember was from someone who wanted a single disc belly mounted plow. They must be good plows.

    2.5 yd Pull-Type Scraper -- Pulled with 50HP Tractor

    The soil you're moving looks like it had been previously been dug up and dumped there. Is that the case?

    Stretch work pants for bigger guys

    Last time I checked at Wal-Mart, all of the cargo pants I found there were made of stretch material.

    Old garden tractor id

    I sometimes thought the modern versions were built somewhere off shore by the same company and sold here under different brand names. The trouble was, Two never showed up at the same auction and by the time I saw another I'd forgotten the company name printed on the last I'd seen.

    Old garden tractor id

    It looks like the the Allis Chalmers G which was last produced in 1955 with a small four cylinder liquid cooled engine. Sometime in the 70's or 80's modern tractors began to show up occasionally at auctions that looked to be based on the G. I remember them as having an electric 3pt hitch in...

    The Death of Thermal Printing?

    I don't think they're as tasty when reheated but haven't noticed them being soggy. I put one on a plate for 40 to 50 seconds and set the microwave on 4. If meat is reheated too hot it ruins the taste imho.

    The Death of Thermal Printing?

    I usually buy the small double patty cheeseburger deal at McDonald's and get another for one dollar. I live alone and often buy six or eight burgers that way. Two to three burgers make a meal. Most times times each burger has a receipt stuck to the paper it's wrapped in. Rarely one receipt...

    I keep breaking 1/2 ratchets on my lug nuts.

    The only American made Craftsman socket I remember breaking was on a lug nut, with a breaker bar. I think they were called flex handles back then. I never broke an American made Craftsman ratchet.
