    What’s the cause of the low pressure? Bad fuel, oil, abnormal wear, bad luck? Doesn’t look like it could have enough hours to be wore out!

    SKEETER McCLUSKEY I have seen other guys working metsl like that and they use bees wax while the metal is hot. Have you used that or only olive oil?
    BTW I am envious of guys like you that have those kind of skills. Give me wood and sharp tools and I will make sawdust:hair::hair::hair:

    The lily Johnny deere has survived surgery...it now has 52 psi oil pressure cold at idle instead of 8.
    This is a high hour machine...she ain't no cream puff ....someone put a paint job and some new decals on her.

    I see I'm not tho only one that finds all sort of uses for extra tire chain side links :thumbs:. Nice job, hard to think of forge work in these recent temps and double bonus points to you! I have had an old forge that I saw on c/l saved to favorites and just am not inspired to go look.
