[QUOTE="TwoForFlinching, post: 3527842, member: 24500"] I know it's off topic at this point, but I'm curious. I don't know about yall, but have you ever met a farmer that followed directions or warnings? I can't even begin to explain how many things I saw repaired with a torch and some wire hangers. Old plow shears cut and welded into specialty, job specific tools. JB Weld and steel putty fixes. Spark plug oil pan drain plugs. Vaseline soaked shop rag gas can plugs. One time, the Minneapolis Moline frame finally gave way right in front of the diff, put some bottle jacks underneath to level, wrapped a comealong around it to pull it back together, cut some strips out of his flatbed and welded it good enough to get it back to the barn. Worked out so well, he mowed with that tractor another twenty years like that. Welded patches back into the bed. [/QUOTE]
