NEW Puget Sound/Seattle/Northwest area riders MEET HERE!!! thread
Well, the new page look is going to take some getting used too but at least it loads up quickly now. Icons are not working, just the info data but no pictures on most posts.
Busy day around the old farm today, took a bunch of siding off a barn, cut it to length and decked a bunch of shelves in the storage building. Converting an old wood grainary and making it into a long term storage for antique stuff. Nearly half of what is going into that storage is at least 50 years old. A lot of the stuff my son is asking me what it is and what it was used for. He had never seen the old shoe horse but is now interested in making heavy sole mocks to wear around.
Anybody need a 59 series Ford flathead V-8 engine with clutch and 4 speed transmission? Probably came out of a mid 40's pickup or truck. How about a 36" circular saw and mandrel? It's equipped with the original babbet bearings and cuts wood as fast as you can pack it to the beast. Even have the 40' long 6" wide flat belt to drive it.
Tomorrow is more of the same but thursday we're going for a ride on the logging roads in the Simco Mts. We'll be "looking for strays" of course.
Hope everyone finds their way back to the site, I'm impressed with how quick it loads now.
Mike
