Taking pine needles I've seen it all now lol 

 

Probably a market somewhere for pine needles :)

 

Bind the needles together with the cones with wax and make fire starter balls for campers?? 

If a Turd Bird and pet rock can be sold to the masses, I’m sure pine needles and cones could too!

Pine needles are big business in North Carolina

They can come to Montana. I’ll provide the rake and a pitchfork. They can have all they want!!!  Amazing how different places have different things. 😂

Put a turbo on one of the 1066’s this evening.  Had the original to4 and it was starting to leak.  One of the other 10’s got a radiator and water pump this week.  Got to keep them running good!

Started the 826D and picked up the 900 plate planter. Took off a closing disk assembly so I can get bearings, bolts, etc. 

I like to have all the old parts with me so I get the right ones new.

It's rained here and too wet to do any work.

Disked with the 450, harrowed with the H, and planted my little cotton patch with the 300.

I need to take more pictures of my neighbors equipment. They are short 3 tractors of having the entire 66 series line. They need a 4166, 666, and the Hydro 70 or a 666 hydro.

Sorry if I'm butting in here on you rubber tired guys but my tractor is on tracks. Did a little landscaping yesterday getting rid of dead elms and brush. The old TD9-91 has a birthday this year- age 70. Works like a charm.

No. This setup was a Canadian made supplier to IH before IH took over these assemblies themselves. Northern Machine Works was located in Bathurst, New Brunswick and (must have) been owned by a Smith family as they called these Smith angle dozers (as seen on the blade). I have only seen pictures of B-E setups and they look like heavier/bigger cylinders than these ones.

You can still see the Smith sticker on the lift arm as in this picture.

There has to be more to the story. That is way too much like B-E to not be connected. I believe IH and BE where putting blade on IH for WW2 of this design. Derring WW2 there were many licensing agreements made that parable would of never happened other wise.

Yes, I agree- there has to be more to the story. Look at the differences between the B-E over the track lifting mechanism in the one photo and the other Canadian "Smith" one in British Columbia.  The plant on the east coast of Canada must have had the exclusive rights all across the country- but only for a few years in the 1950's (?)

Not my red tractor but I was driving today. It was Christmas tree planting day on the tree farm I work for. CIH Mx90c 

We put about 2500 in the ground today 

 

Tree farm owner is on the planter. My two sons and my brother were coming behind and making sure the trees were standing straight.

Bushhogged with the 70A this morning.  Moving some stuff around and just thought this made a good picture.

I just finished spot spaying for weeds around the place.   

 

I've never had such a fancy setup before.   Worked out really good.  

 

Equipment just keeps getting added to the yard.
