Rainy Day Projects

Woke up to light rain, I didn't have to work but Alta did, so I loafed around the house a while before I went to the shop. I got to listen to the Buy, Sell & Trade show on WRMJ, Aledo radio while I got caught up with farm records. Went to the shop and decided to weld up the drive chain tighteners on the White 5100 planter. After that, I made and mounted holders for field flags on both 1850's. Just a piece of hose zip tied to the handrail on one and a piece of conduit zip tied to the mounting bracket for the sprayer controls on the other one. I changed the primary fuel pump on 1850 #2 and drained the oil and changed it and filter. After lunch, I took the old marker hoses off of the planter and replaced them with new hoses. I'm not using starter fertilizer on the planter now, so I took all the hoses and plumbing off of the planter and put it on the shelf where it will probably be when my kids clean out the shed after I die. I quit around 5 and said that's enough for today.

No pictures yet,but I started trying to fix that broken grill shroud on the 2-105. I took a piece of oak molding,cut and ground the ends to fit the breaks in the plastic,then coated everything with fiberglass resin and wrapped it with fiberglass cloth. The plan is,when it dries hard,I'll start building it up and shaping it.
Fingers crossed.
 
super99,
I too save things to do on rainydays. Yesterday it was raining, So I fixed the lights on a tractor in the pole barn. Some days I repair leaking hydraulic cylinders. Always save something to do for rainydays. geo
