    I have given up my trades to keep this all going here as now 42 don't have to much time left to develop this property to its full potential wile I have reasonable health with all the lousy seasons we seem to get these days.

    This is the axle Assembly on a ford 7000 that has seized the bushes in the steering I have not long replaced the bushes but didn't ream enough out so has now grabbed due to lack of grease. Will have to press it apart and will likely stuff the new bushes


    These compact tractors are bloody good. This one is light enough for the 120 to tow on a small trailer. Still much better than a shovel

    See that little guy carrying his house, he was heading up hill.... Does that mean big rain coming



    The mill is back in action although not as round anymore

    I got the RRC off WayneG ... Haven't got the heart to strip it now ... Bit like the HoHar's / Bugger, another to paint

    //

    Dunno why they call it a Jet boat, as it's really a V8 with a water pump strapped to the flywheel

    Good luck with the Tyre kickin .. Suggest wearing steel cap boots, cause it hurts ya toes
