let me see the list goes on:  have a white 2-150 getting different injector pump..(not new), her mate beside her is getting jugs reset-hope is not gaskets), "rusty" my ih with loader to load the woood processor is in for new filters, and the line up outside is long....lol

 

sure am glad the temp inside is over 60..........now just got to get to the woods and bring in more fuel.  We have two outdoor furnaces to feed (along with the dairy cows)

 

I hope to be able to get some good pics of my old mm670 running my blockbuster wood processor..........thats winter farm work...and more fun than the power saw.

 

Now, if i can just get windows 7 to work all the time with my altell card.

 

I think it is time to go play  in the shop today.  Too cold to hunt deer and sure to cold to go to the woods.

 

Thanks for the hollar.............still here and i do enjoy the reading of the posts.
