mikem Posted January 24, 2023 Posted January 24, 2023 Been pulling some parts off of a 1955 Super WD-9... (Drawbar, fenders, floor pans, hour meter, wheel weights, maybe the hydraulic system.) Been sitting outside for years with open exhaust, no sparkplugs, missing injectors. Yep, it's stuck......So is every bolt I touched. I'm gettin too old for this. Mike 7 Quote

Absent Minded Farmer Posted January 24, 2023 Posted January 24, 2023 Cleaning in the basement, so I can expand the layout for the last time (I'm not dying, just ran out of basement). Also cleaning a B&H 535 16mm sound projector & still trying to source a drive roller for a Fairchild Seventy-07 movie player. If that comes to fruition, I'll be transferring some IH films to go with the Gehl films. Speaking of, it's about time the magic Gehl VHS bag gets reloaded. There are more people interested in those than anticipated. Can't keep the masses waiting.😆 And there's film to develop. Just got more C41 powders to make a dent in the color negative pile. Might clean up another camera or two & list them on eBay. And the beat goes on.... Mike 4 Quote
INTERNATIONAL 1466 Posted January 24, 2023 Posted January 24, 2023 Really surprised more of them don't burn. We always take all the sheet metal off when they come in the shop and clean them up. Have had some really bad ones! Currently our shop is this. 11 Quote

Rusty_Farmer Posted January 26, 2023 Posted January 26, 2023 I have thoughts on some of these "56 series electric fires. When the air filter gauge was add, an angle sleeve tilted the gauge for better sight. Bad was the tilt was now a catch for dirt and chaff,etc. Nearly every one I've been into was corroded or burnt at the connection. Something to look for as we service them this winter.. 1 Quote
gearheadmb Posted January 26, 2023 Posted January 26, 2023 I've been working on organizing hardware in the shop. I'm tired of the over packed storage containers and coffee cans full of mixed junk. So I built this. I thought it would be a lot bigger than I needed. It is actually filling up a lot faster than I expected. 8 Quote
