John just how much stock do you own in copper wire. In the olden days we had two wires hot and neutral and a plug that could be put in either way so sometimes the case was hot and then turn the plug and the case is grounded. So we made plugs that would only go in one way then the case would never be hot. I grew up using these old systems and yes you could get a pretty good shock if the plug was in wrong just by touching the case and a good ground, BUMMER. So now we have made the plugs so that they will only fit one way a good thing no more getting shocked by holding the water faucet and waffle iron case. Remember this is before plastic. I have a pretty good collection of old waffle irons and I only use the more modern ones that are set to only one way that the plug will go in. Now the government came along and backed up by the copper wire co. they added the ground wire which goes from the neutral wire (metal case) to the neutral bar on the main box. Now what does this socalled ground wire do. Well it sure helps the copper wire co. Well anyway enjoy your stocks. Walt

Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
