I put on my 3 sets of 125 lb wheel weights on my 45D rear wheels, even for a young fella like me that’s a job by your self…
Otherwise I put some WD45 decals on it but I didn’t think to snap a picture of it…

Installed a much better set of used fenders on one of my Allis 'U's and now to remove the old rusted bolts to install the new drawbar. They're pretty well rusted in place so will probably have get out the drill or the "blue wrench'.

I actually try very hard to just leave them set this time of year. We got snow overnight and the ground is not frozen very good. Just make a bunch of ruts if I try to move it. Not to mention pushing the new gravel off in the grass everywhere.
Trying to get moved to the farm is job No. one for me this year, not even planning any tractor projects. Have plenty I would like to get done 'some day'. Maybe next year!

The last 2 weeks have been a blast. New heated shop for me. Next to the 150 year old Never heated ever shop. So between moving tools in new shop and moving in workbenches and working on tractors it’s been exciting. I have already finished 3 12 v conversions…two on WD45’s and one on my newest ca. My old CA is number four conversion and is in there now. Propane and electric heat. Small shop. Efficient. Love it. All are getting whatever they need. Wax too! Never waxed a tractor in January before! All get quick release hoods, valve adjusts, hoses, belts, antifreeze as per Dr Allis, etc.

Got the 6080 out to haul some firewood yesterday. Was burning a brush-pile this weekend, it was really close to a big elm in the process of dying. Figured just cut it down and throw the brush right in the fire.

Changed the oil in the air cleaner on the WF 45. Thought I would start it up, just wanted to hear one run a little. Had been sitting for a couple of months, good time to service it, less dripping. Started right up, sounded great!

Fired up the 7040 and let it run for a while. It was plugged in thinking I might use it but turned out I didn't. Should do the same for the 7045 and 7060 but the 60 is awaiting new batteries

Nice looking tractor. Was a beautiful day to be out. I sold some round bales and needed the 7045 to get them picked and loaded. Was a greasy mess with the warm weather and the skid loader just couldn’t handle it

7045 back at it again for more round bales
Still a greasy mess. The building site is a low area and seems to take forever to dry out.

I had put my D-12 Ser.III and my D-15 Ser.II to bed late last Oct. just before I headed South for the Winter.
Come April they will get roused back up, but they will now have to endure some Competition from my new Kobota TLB BX-23.

Dirt Farmer, I love that seat setup. I have dreamed of the same thing many a time.

I got a new one. In a strong wind, we saw the the windmill tower was moving around way to much. The bolts down at the base have loosed up and are danger close to failure. I parked the 200 on the North side and hooked ratchet straps from 8' high down to the frame and operator's deck. Plan on fixing with new bolts on a nice day coming up.

Moved some stuff around with the 6080 then got CA-1 and the wide front 45 running so I could relocate the 45 and plow to a different building. I can not believe how easy that CA starts! Sat for several months now, turn on gas, it turned over twice and was running without using the choke. 6 volt system even. 45 started right up to but not that fast.

Spent the last couple days getting the cab tore apart and patching rust holes. Had i known how bad it was going to be i would've removed the cab or at least the tires. But this will get me by for a while, maybe someday i'll take the time to pull the cab and completely rebuild the floor the right way.

Fired up the 200 and removed the 3pt snow blower that never got used this season. Then braved the cold wind and snowflakes and pulled a bunch of tree saplings.

Took the chains off the 6080 Saturday! Yesterday I removed two hydraulic hoses from the loader that are bad. Trip to see ReedE this afternoon to get some new ones. I think they are the last ones, have replaced all the others.
