Ya Eugen, I’d rather be sod plowing than snow plowing.

Great Job, Excellent job of plowing! Wish it were that time of year again. And that warm!Propane57 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 03, 2022 7:19 am Some pictures of my plowing last fall. Sadly I will be cutting my potatoe gardens in half this year. So that means less tractor fun. I was hoping to have the Case 446 do some plowing, but never happened. I need to get a sleeve hitch for it so I can hook up my Plow, tandem disks, cultivator, potato hiller and other homemade attachments. So I use a LGT 100 Ford tractor aka Grunt. It does all the garden work. Worn out 10hp kohler k engine, that should of had rings put in 10 years ago. But it works great, smokes a little, clean the fouled up plug ever now and then and away you go.
Any way, ramblin again, so picture time.

Note to @Eugen This may be a good reason for a member map, just a thought. Don't want anyone thinking we are tracking them. Maybe in could be done to show an approximate location, Now I am rambling. lol![]()
Back to original thought:
1. How many Case garden tractors might be on Island?
2. How did they get there to start with?
3. Year models that may be found there.
4. What types of jobs do people have there?

Maybe five Case garden tractors. Could be more. I have two of them.Doublet wrote: ↑Fri Feb 04, 2022 9:36 amDoublet wrote: ↑Thu Feb 03, 2022 7:18 pm@Propane57 It looks to me your location is Prince Edward Island.

I understand completely,Eugen wrote: ↑Fri Feb 04, 2022 10:14 am As a side note, @Doublet there is a "usermap" extension for our forum software, but it needs a couple of things that complicates things: the postal code, country, and an account on geonames.org The last one, the account, is easy, I can do that. But it seems to me a poor choice to ask for the postal code for privacy reasons. I don't feel comfortable installing this. For entertainment purposes, a rough location such as "Port McNicoll, Ontario, Canada" is more than enough to put a pin on a map. One day if I have time I will write something like that. Sorry!![]()
I understand. But for those who have listed their city and state/province. It is a simple matter of copy and paste into a search engine to come up with the postal/area code, All of about 2 minutes to do it.Eugen wrote: ↑Fri Feb 04, 2022 9:14 am
