Re: The weather
Metal float thankfully. Just in from an emergency clearing... Power went down, and I had failed to pre-set the generator... Every time I do, the power is fine... I guess that's cheap insurance, but it's annoying... I really need to do some kind of more or less permanent install. 444 did just fine. s...

Re: The weather
Noel - I've got an H1. My father bought it new in 1971, along with a 38" deck, blower, model 80 trailer, and the EZ-Rake blower, and trailer canopy. Still have everything except the canopy which rotted apart. The blower is now mounted on an old Trac Vac trailer, and keeps going. Love that simpl...

Re: Living in dread of the dredge...
Such a beautiful place . Based on your description I assume you are at the bottom of the Niagara Escarpment Range . Natural water flows like that are e thing of wounders. I had to look up the Niagara Escarpment... At any rate, no, I'm well south of that area, down in Pennsylvania. I'm on the north ...

Re: The weather
The 140 most certainly does. Really an outstanding blower. And honestly, I prefer the 140's control layout over the Case, plus it has real, split brakes...
The JD300, isn't the garden tractor... It's the industrial. Loader in this case, so 40 something hp, and 2000# lift on the loader.

Re: The weather
They've got me in the 6-12 band... Hard to imagine after the last 4 beautiful days we've had... Supposed to be heavy, wet snow. Everything was started, and is sitting with battery chargers overnight. The damn 444 was pumping fuel out the carb. Why, I don't know, but I dropped the bowl, blew everythi...

Re: Living in dread of the dredge...
So... The property is near the base of our mountain. The top of the mountain was basically the western extent of Pennsylvania as it started out. I'm west/north of that, so the mill was outside the colony, and also predates the revolution. It sat between a couple forts that defined the edge, and was ...

Living in dread of the dredge...
I've been chasing a pond company for a couple years now to get my two mill ponds dealt with. The upper eroded, and basically emptied to a swamp, and the lower is on the verge of the same. I've gone back and forth with the owner a couple times, but apparently he's notorious for not getting back to pe...

Re: Snow
I had a March like that several years ago... This is before I inherited my place. My folks would go to Florida for 8 weeks or so in January/Febuary. The farm was set up to just drain and close up, so no big deal. I would go out just before they came back north in March, to make sure the house, and b...

Well, at least it's after the valve... That's the only good thing I can think there...

Re: Messing around in the shop
Bob - That was me with the original 6v system on my N. I'm not much help on the 12v conversion in use here unfortunatly, but I put my $0.02 in on the overall N setup... My "big" tractors date from 1970 - 1948, so I'm solidly in the antique tractor owner club, and I get to fight all the ant...
