Hello and welcome to the forum from all in Iowa.    

Some of the guys here have been talking about jigsaw puzzles they and or there wives have been putting together so I though I would show you guys some pictures of my wife's currant project.   

Great pics!  

We are having an ice storm here and you can hardly take a step outside without ending up on your arse......

Wish it was snow instead!!!

What a fantastic build and the end result looks factory custom!!! 

Mr. Dozer/ the showman/chris sutton  very well done!!!!  BRAVO!!!!

HAVE A HAPPY AND SAFE NEW YEAR

EVERYONE!!!

Have a Great New Year guys!

I wish you all good health, wealth and much happiness in the new year.  

Happy New Year everyone from the newbie from Iowa!    

Tractoring the trailer= fun.

Tossing the trailers content into the bin = hard work. Don't blow a gasket chris.

And why is everything still green in January there?                I'ts not fair!!!!    

Merry Christmas and thanks for sharing your family pictures, very enjoyable lain.

We may have to band together and have a group intervention on Mr. Norm Scrooge however.....  

Awesome little horsey!  

That must be the price of hand delivered to the USA......

Always enjoy pictures of your machines guys!  

Looks like you had lots of fun in the fresh air nigel.

JB weld has always worked for me and is much easier than trying to get solder or braze to take.

I agree with using the JB weld. I have used it on my '56 Ford 860 ag tractors gas tank in several places  that were leaking and it's still holding over 20 years later.

Clean the area, apply the product and wait 24 hours for it to completely cure out and fill up the tank. You will have a big smile, dry tank and tour wallet will be happy as well.......

An assortment of toys I enjoy to play with on my 20 acre poor farm.

I like your Billy Goat Norm. It is 5 H.P. My Billy Goats are 1 G.P   

Looking forward to the video!!!  

That's awesome! Your back will thank you over and over for getting that loader!!!

I had a chance to get an almost new loader for the 520H  I bought in 1997. At the time I thought $500. was way over priced......

I have been kicking myself in the arse ever since.....  

Great video, wasn't sure what to expect when you were decending the muddy incline!!    You made it back out. I got my 1956 Ford 860 Ag tractor stuck up to the rear axle in the mud ONCE...... Never again.....

What a monster!!!    

I've been looking for one over here but no luck yet....

Gad, that looks like fun!!!  Good thing you're running turf tires the way the turf is flying!   

I am a cheapskate and just start all mine and let them run for about 15 min. once every other week..... 

Keeps the carb and fuel pump gassed as well.  

Nice find! Looks super clean, straight and with good paint.

Here is a stupid question. Which one of you is going to repair and reinstall the engine or are you going to replace it with something else?
