Hay @Eugen @RoamingGnome I hope it’s not too late to jump down the rabbit hole with you guys!
I have the same dreams as you Eugen. I envision cows added to our fields, but as you know life tends to get in the way! Oh well making the hay is a good milestone for now.
Fellas I gotta say that’s the craziest hog I’ve ever seen! Never heard of a pig in sheep’s clothing!
As far as butchering goes I remember the first time I was allowed to go with the grownups to butcher hogs. It was quite an experience and it left an impression. I couldn’t eat bacon or sausage for about a week! But I got over it and never had a problem after that. After many years of participating in butchering hogs and cattle and wild game I often times found it helpful to harden my heart to job at hand, and concentrate on doing the best job I could, not only to produce the best product I could but also to make sure the animal didn’t die in vein. I absolutely agree with the idea of having an understanding about where your food comes from and if possible taking a role in its production. I think it makes you appreciate that nice steak more if you do.
Anyway there’s my butchering ramble from down the rabbit hole!

Nice disks Harry. I’d say they would cut pretty good. Nice loader tractors.

Noel, yes they chopped up the plowed garden’s nicely. I like the way my troybilt tiller with the 13 hp engine tills. So after discing I tilled to make the soil beautiful for planting. I will take a few pics if the gardens. Harry

@Harry Does your 646 with those massive tires ever loose traction?

@Harry I really like the look of the yellow combine weights. I painted mine silver as to look like the newer Ingersoll with the silver rims but I like yellow / black combination better now. I'm thinking I'll ask the local home hardware to mix some dark yellow alkyd paint for me next time it goes on sale.
