Welcome blacktruck to GM thread

Thank you sir. Happy to be here. Using my tractors around home is my happy place. This is living vicariously through you all until I get there.

This is Fall, Winter, Spring work. Summer .. not so much.

Pretty much how I see it also. Summer is time to tackle the easy stuff and enjoy the days.

Welcome to GM Weld.man &Blacktruck.

Thank you also for the welcome. Nice to find a forum of like minded individuals.

Sounds like a good workout in the wood gym, Rick. Perfect for workin' off those holiday pounds and building some muscle tone. It's also a good way to wear out your favorite gloves, rip your shirts, scratch your face, dull a bunch of saw chains, and drop heavy stuff on your toes. DAMHIKT...

Yes sir! All of those things.

There was lots of green briar vines .. in the yaupon as well.

Middle ugly tree .. gone.

No pictures .. TapaTalk acting up tonight.

Good afternoon! 84˚F partly cloudy, South wind.
I had a call this morning that the front axel oil on the JD (4WD) was low and the tractor would be out of service. There was no oil showing on the short dipstick on the axel. I changed out the oil a month ago and filled it. I put a screwdriver in the dipstick hole today and determined it was right below the dip stick. There were no leaks. I added a half quart and that filled it up (it holds a gallon). I suspect there must have been a bubble in it or is just filled all the voids after being driving around. I did not check it after driving it when I changed out the oil because it has no filter to fill. Any other explanation?

I've seen that happen Don. Fill it, drive it a bit, recheck, refill.

Rick, someone else from tbn just did a YouTube review of your cha ching. Do you get royalties from that?

I hope so .. we needs the money!

"Summer is time to tackle the easy stuff and enjoy the days."

Summer is time for work that can be done from A/C tractor cabs.

40 right now...high in the mid-60's..

My EGO chainsaw trigger is sticking. My guess is there's crap in the housing. I expect I'll have to split the housing and see what's going on...
Pretty warm now (60 ± 5°) during the days...hope the ground will be thawed enough this weekend to finish the chores I wanted to do last weekend...

L4N, like others of our TBN brethren, I am so sorry to read about your daughter-in-law. However it turns out, I hope she can be comfortable and enjoys what time is left...

Good morning, low was 45°F and going to 64. Wind E 8 mph. Mostly cloudy.

I am not sure what I will get up to today but rest assured a back hoe is in the mix.

Hydramorphone is what they have given her now. I am not sure I spelled it right, but it is like morphine but without the stomach upset. She is allowed up to 4 pills a day. She took three yesterday and was flying. But at least she was pain free.
Most of her family is in U.K. They have already been informed and seeing as there will NOT be a funeral they don't need to worry about coughing up $4500.oo each for the air fare to get to here.

Thanks for the prayers and good thoughts, they do help.


Have a safe day all
