    I have a small padlock collection, this Abus below was added this afternoon. If you collect padlocks you soon learn how to pick them open.

    Pair of old Briggs engines, the larger one is a model ZZ and the smaller one a model N, both turn over but the small engine was missing the fuel cap and the mice built a nest inside the gas tank.

    This is the Alloy I want to remember. You provided some valuable information on cyanide that I did not know on another thread and this is the educator in you that is of great value to the forum. I would like to forget the gray matter part.
    Give back more to this world than we take.

    Not a Case tractor, it's a Minneapolis Moline G705, and here's what she looked like in an earlier life.

    The gasoline powered Case tractor does not have enough power to operate the hammer mill at a decent capacity, yesterday I found and cut a deal on this one.

    1370 White, manufactured in Italy by Fiat, four cylinder diesel, front end loader, 3 point, 1000/580 PTO
