    Value of Horse Saddles?

    I don't know but those saddles look homemade or perhaps by a local shop. They aren't for roping or barrels--They don't have the straps for it. On a side note: There's some parade riders down here that have over $20k in their saddles. They are a work of art with lots of silver and gold. :oops:

    Bought a new to me PTO chipper. Need help undoing the previous owners "modifications"

    My Woodlands manual says to never run the chipper elevated. It should be lowered to the ground for stability. And it needs it.

    What bugs/diseases/critters have ya'll seen that weren't around 30-40 years ago?

    Yep, we have scorpions too. They like wood around here. I had some equipment crate panels stacked up against a tree. I went to move them and they were covered in scorpions between the sheets. :oops: Edit: Oh yeah, Rattlesnakes like wood too.

    After you get it sorted out, buy a bag of colored zip ties and mark each side of the quick connect. After that, it's just Red to Red, Blue to Blue, Yellow to Yellow and Green to Green. Or something similar. ;) They're great for marking other things too. Keys, wire harnesses, etc.

    Then they aren't Fire Ants. At least not like here. The name is true to fact. The sting is extremely painful and will leave a welt. And they don't attack one at a time. Hundreds will crawl up your leg and seemingly on signal, will sting all at once. They are known to kill small animals. On a...

    What happened to my mare's hind leg?

    If you've already checked for damaged gates and fences, my guess would be an animal. Ask your vet and local law enforcement if any one has reported rabid animals. The wound does look like multiple bites.

    Echo CS-500P any good

    That was a great find! 👏 And I see there's still parts available for it--Even the labels. I found Jack's Small Engines but I'm sure there are others.

    Finding parts for PTO finish mower

    Good deal. I bet it cost far less than having a machine shop make one if you don't have a lathe. ;)

    Finding parts for PTO finish mower

    Stock bushings are so numerous, all you need are the dimensions of yours. Even the hardware store in my small town carries a pretty good selection. Sometimes, you just need to do a little "farmer engineering". If you know the part number, try here.

    Dark mode?

    I'm still getting adjusted to the GIANT Characters every time I come here. In the evening, I wear my sunglasses. 😀

    The day the music died.

    "You and Me", 1967 That's the song that came to my mind. After a Google, that's about the only one they mention.

    PRICED OUTTA SIGHT...

    And another thing. The Left Wing is talking about supporting the NRA and the second amendment more. Why? Because it's being considered classifying all "Trans" as having a psychotic deficiency limiting their right to own weapons. I laughed so hard I almost wet myself. :ROFLMAO: They're only...

    PRICED OUTTA SIGHT...

    Well, in fact they did in the Acts I listed. The President has the power to set tariffs in those instances--A power granted by Congress. As such, carries the power of the Constitution. It's all going to come down to a SCOTUS ruling and not some left wing gangster group's opinion set on...

    The tariffs are also used to level the playing field with other countries. i.e. They charge enormous tariffs on U.S. products while charging other countries nothing or near nothing. This makes U.S. products too costly to compete. Even if the product is superior.
