One eyed fat man is still kicking

Recommended Posts

I'll have to change my profile picture to reflect the patch now on the other eye. I've had to have another surgery on the eye, The "good" eye was not that good and I do not see well with it without using the page enlarging glass. Right now I see double and foggy, School work has been difficult, as is typing or reading. I had a stack of limbs and branches in the back field about 3 meters high by 6 meters wide/deep that I went to set afire Sunday. I grabbed the wrong can and doused it with 2 gallons of Gasoline, not Kerosene, When I lit it it blew up. Many small splinters embedded into my arms, burns to my arms and forehead, hair mostly gone, rough week. My wife is typing most things for me as they cant get me back into the eye doctor until November 13th. Still waiting to be scheduled for colonoscopy from the Veterans Administration to check to make sure cancer is not back, that test was due the end of June, still no word on a date. I got another Wheel Horse D160 kohler single cylinder, I might have posted its loading and unloading, well I got a nice  56 inch blade and 48 inch deck for them last week. and installed the blade.The plan is to buy another 3 point and 8 new tires for both tractors, one set of Turf tires and one set of AG tires, that will set me back about 1000.00 by the time I buy one set of 4 bolt hubs and a set of 10 inch rims for the AG tractor. I've installed the 48 inch deck on the Allis Chalmers 416 Shuttle and have completed one complete mowing cycle with it. It is VERY strange to have a 4 speed hydro. I still need to adjust the belts a little as reverse is not set to good standard, cuts great though and handles great with Carlisle All-Trails and 18x6.50-8 up front. BTW, those 50lb rear Allis wheel weights were only made for the Allis 400 series and I have never seen another set.

Alain,

Hope you make a speedy recovery! Your Oologah Tractor Museum need a Curator to look after the tractor collection for perpetuity!

As Will Haggle already mentioned you have a loads more room to house more tractors......
