    I inherited this mess of a pressure system. The well serves 7 waterers and has been a thorn in my side since I took over the farm. Thankfully the well drilling company has gone out of business if this in any indication of the work they did for others.

    A new pressure tank is going in this crock.

    Corn is chopped didn't take long. Had two small breakdowns the worst being the PTO cable broke on the truck on the 3rd load. I had to turn it on by hand from then on. Thankfully its a cab over so not a big deal. Some pics....

    The 4450 ready for its maiden chopping voyage.

    Just had a customer call in a buy a 12x20x10 building for firewood storage... I told him a carport would be cheaper, but he wanted to match his shop we built him.

    It definitely looks like that would give you a spark issue.

    Just got done throwing this bench together in the garage. I still need a few longer bolts so I can't fasten the top down quite yet but so far I am happy to have a new bench since I moved the other one down into the basement.

    Cutting, cutting, and more cutting. I'll probably end up selling some wood this year just to free up some space.
