Customize Tractor

11/04/05 - 11/06/05

 

We're starting to customize the tractor now. Rob made fixtures to attach all kinds of tools to the tractor, so he'd have everything that he needed with him. And we filled the tires with antifreeze and water - it helps to add weight and stabilize the tractor in precarious positions.

Wes shows a beautiful butterfly he found.


We're all ready to fill the tires. The tractor loader is great for carryng stuff from one place to another!


I couldn't believe we were able to jack up the tractor so easily with this farm jack!

 

Antifreeze goes in first, then the water. Loretta's in charge of the antifreeze. (slideshow)

Rob adds a sign to our fireplace.

 

Wes finds a leaf with some kind of growth on it. (slideshow)


There are sooooo many buckeyes this year. It must be due to the rain. (slideshow)

Our new TopNTilt is hooked up

 

OK - it says we need to grease... but where on earth is the zerk fitting?
