I have read some of your posts and replys. I know you think anyone who scraps, burys, deystroys a combine is a moron. You are titled to your opinion. So am I...
I dont think you realize that when i run my derby bine each year, i am helping to perserve farm history. See our derby is at our local tractor show. Southwester Ohio Antique Tractor Association. The derby almost fills the Preble county grandstands, both farmers and those who dont know what a combine is attend. the proceds help to fund the club, and keep the show going. TO ME, we are preserving, and yes, we are deystroying, but its not pointless, and 4020lp, we arent just a bunch of slackjawed idiots. Thanks for listening....Have a good day

Yall, like HeyPigFarmer said, all i wanted was a transmision. Posted on the tractor forum, had a post left asking me to post here. I did. You buffalo buzzards have tried to crusify me over my ideas. Yall dont know me, at least very well, what i do, and certainly not my IQ. I will say though, yall have given my quite a bit of entertainment over these last few days. I wonder how high of a level your blood preasure has hit??? Oh yeah.... WE ARE PRESERVING OLD FARM EQUIPMENT, IN EVERY ASPECT, REGARDLESS OF HOW YOU SEE IT. And just as Heypigfarmer said, sure you can borrow one of my trucks, dont have a car, at some point they will be junk anyhow to.....

The only think you're really doing is polishing up your ego---an adult version of "nyaaah, nyaaah, I can do what I want, and you can't stop me!" Do what you're going to do, but talk about it somewhere else besides here. I think you get some kind of sick pleasure out of blowing about your combine demo derbies, and you deserve any kind of a hard time anybody gives you about them.

Whoah, buster! I nEVER said that of anyone who scraps and destroys combines..... unless they destroy them in a moronic fashion, such as a demolition derby.
You along with so many others, only take out of context, what I've said. CAN'T YOU READ????!!!!!

Now, just HOW is the destruction of VINTAGE combines going to help preserve history?

Is it only because you only care about vintage tractors, instead, so that the combines have to be killed off?

I told you where to take that worn-out 510. It does not deserve to be in a derby to only crash other bines, either.

Your kidding, right :?: :?: :roll:

Two things... Man, I just can't stop myself.
1. In the previous post that is supposed to say "before you knew anything about it" forgot the a in about.
2. You remind me of the Historical Society. They will make you keep an old bridge in place, even though it's only rated for 5 tons because it's spalling and cracking apart on the underside, just because it is a historic landmark. Now removing that bridge would have saved the state of Michigan $430 Million. But it's historic, can't move it, can't remove it, it has to stay there because it�s old. Your tax dollars at work.

So to Mike and Mr. 4020LP, sure you can borrow my truck. That�s what insurance is for, I want a new one anyway. If you live in Michigan you know all vehicles are going to rust back to the earth from which they came anyway.
New combines aren�t quite the fire hazard the old ones were, but they still like to burn on a regular basis. Especially the early 9060 series Deere�s they had some issues in the engine area. More combines have cannibalized themselves by burning to the ground than just about anything any people have ever done to them. Early 6600�s were notorious for this. I remember one day the guy across the road with his White 7800 caught it on fire 3 times, just kept going.
Jacksonburg didn�t come here blowing about destroying combines. He asked for a transmission, YOU people were the ones that burned him where he stood for even mentioning the mere thought of smashing some combine before you even knew anything bout it. I won�t agree with the preserving history, but he is having fun and isn�t that what life is about?

I have no sense of history? Cool. I�ve run those old machines, we had a 55EB round back up until 1998, I spent many hours on it, people that still want to run those things are nuts. But If we still had Grandpa�s first JD55 do you think that thing would be going anywhere? Not in this life time, just like his old B and 60 we have at the house, those are never leaving, and why? Because Grandpa bought them new. Now is the world going to run out of old combines, probably not. If you want to try to save every one that you see that�s your option if you want to, but don�t go telling me what to do with my equipment. I go to job sites and watch people destroy $400,000 pieces of brand new equipment all the time, do I think it�s a waste? Yeah, but can I do anything about it? No. So why not sit back and watch the guy roll the off road dump truck on its side and laugh at it? After that a $500 combine is no big loss.
4020LP If you are amused by people that think their opinion is the only one that counts you must be entertained on a 24/7 basis because like I brought up before, you started burning Jacksonburg where he stood, and haven�t let up since so obviously you think your opinion should be loud if not louder than mine and his combined. Now give yourself a big pat on the back.
Oh yeah, I thought all this place was for was entertainment. I mean shoot, what else would I be doing right now than pushing you guys one step closer to a heart attack.
So had to make this one long because well, I really like to argue, and I won�t be back on for a while. Going to Georgia to look at a building that one of my fellow colleagues had the company assemble in the wrong order. I get to see what they have done already and how to get the rest of the building built and still be able to get the crane out.

HeyPigFarmer said: (quoted from post at 15:34:21 01/23/08) Well I was going to let this die but between the comment about having a two digit IQ and on the first combine thread your oh so suddle "I've loved combines ever since, and yes, I hate combine demo derbies, and the people who organize them!" comment, I figure it must be good for you guys to get your blood pressure cranked up every now and then.
So why won't we let it die? Why won't you? The guy with the 510 didn't come here asking to be burned at the stake or have a trial by fire. He just wanted a transmission for an outdated, decrepit piece of equipment. You didn't know anything about the machine, the shape it was in, or if there even was any good parts on it and you immediately start burning him for what he is doing to something that nobody will ever use again or be able to restore ever.
Sure I can see saving the better ones, you kids can go paint them all up pretty, put twice as much money into them as they cost new, make sure they are factory correct right down to the leaks, stand back, look at them all proud like you actually did something. Then you can take them to shows with a big beaming smile for all to see. Might just as well, nobody else wants the things. You stand there on your pedestal looking down at all those that actually have fun with their junk machines like it's a sin but what good is that old 95 sitting in the barn never to go in the field again? It might just as well be scrap. Sure people oogle it at shows, who cares? Take a picture it'll last longer. I know maybe you guys can start a harvest day, kind of like people and their plow day, and you can take your combines out and run them around in a wheat field and play with your dull cutter bars, put whole heads up in the grain tank because you can't adjust the thing correctly and spray grain out the back like a grass seeder because it's wore out. But on the up side you won't have to plant it again for the next year. Oh, even better when one of those old things gets a hot bearing or gets some chaff on the exhaust manifold of the overworked and out of tune gas engine and burns to the ground, you can roast marshmallows.
Seriously now guys, you keep going on how your opinion is just as important as his, so why do you run his opinions on what to do with his equipment down? I know you are worried about running out of old combines to show people but as long as there are people like you out there restoring them, there will always be at least a few.
As for having a two digit IQ, I'm a civil engineer currently in charge of a 14 million dollar city storm sewer project. What have you done lately? :D

More and more cheap entertainment..... :D :lol: :D :lol: :lol: :lol: Just gotta love this place... :lol:

If you think i don't know how to use my machines, I wish you would visit me at harvest time. I and my brother and cousin will be USING the 45, 95, and hopefully my recently purchased 105 on our farm to harvest OUR 215 acres of wheat. They are easier to maintain than the new ones and we enjoy running them. OH BY THE WAY, did I mention that we also custom cut small grain and beans? If you wanna judge my abilities, you should see me in action first. I think you might be suprised at how much some dumb 26yo might know after all.

If Jacksonburg wants to destroy combines, fine, all he needs to do is go somewhere else other than here to blow about it. He's just doing it here because he has some sick need to torque people off who he knows aren't in favor of what he does. And then to top it off, he makes some sorry excuse about how he's preserving agricultural history by destroying old combines for the yokels to have a few laughs about. What a crock that is.

As for you, I really don't care what you think, or how smart you think you are, you have no sense of history, and there's just something wrong with people who enjoy watching the mindless destruction of combines or cars, or whatever. I'd rather see them cut up for scrap than to let people like you destroy them to entertain a bunch of yahoos. I don't care one iota what you think of me or my opinion. I'm always amused by people like you who think that your opinion is the only one that counts. You may be a genius on the level of Einstein, but as far as I'm concerned, anyone who's in favor of combine demo derbies is a complete idiot.

Keep telling yourself the lie that you're preserving history by destroying old combines, and perhaps you'll finally believe it, but I doubt that anyone else will. Fine, do what you want, but to come here on a site where most people are concerned with preserving combines and other machinery, just to brag on and promote your event, is simply childish, since it's obvious that you're doing it just to irritate people. And since your opinion is no better than mine, yes, I still think people who participate in, or watch combine demo derbys are a bunch of slack-jawed yokels with two-digit IQ's.

TO THE SUBJECT OF DEMO DERBIES in reply to Jacksonburg, 01-22-2008 15:16:12

Why can't we just let the subject die. If its not too much to ask, you don't have to tell us what you are doing with the machines. Frankly, we really don't care to hear about it. I realize that there are alot of machines too far gone to save. But I for one am interested in preserving any types of old farm machinery and not just tractors. At 26 years old I didn't get the chance to see most of the equipment I own anywhere close to new. Hats off to 1206 and all you others that share our interest in mostly combines as one day most of the oldies WILL be gone. I am proud to show off my equipment at our local shows to both young and old. Yes that means I take the time to haul even my JD 95 to local shows despite the huge hassel. So how about giving the regulars that frequent this board a little respect if you can, I think most here will agree with me.

Re: Hey Nutsaboutcombines...... in reply to Jacksonburg, 01-22-2008 15:16:12

I agree with you 100%, for some reason people get this crazy idea that they can save every old piece of equipment out there when that is just not true, especially when it comes to combines. There are too many moving parts, too many parts that wear out due to the unimaginable amount of material that moves over them that it is just not practical. Most newer combines if they make it to 5000 hours they have led a long and productive life. The other thing is most people realizing that they have a pile of junk that nobody would ever pay over scrap value for will leave a combine outside and once it fills with water, the belly rots out, the bearings seize and all the belts rot away that is all the thing is good for is scrap. If you think that you can save every combine out there, that goes to show how much you actually know about the machines and farm equipment in general. They are too old, too slow, too heavy and too much a fire hazard to be of any real use. Nobody wants to haul them anywhere, and they have no other residual use like a tractor. Old tractors can still be used for something productive or something fun, they are easy to haul, and are easily repaired from the brink of junk.
As far as combine demo derbies go, Nutsaboutcombines has obviously never been in one. This year I'm going to smash up an IH 204. A bit smaller than I would like but I'll still have the time of my life out there. Unless someone wants to drive to michigan to pick up a combine with a rotten belly, missing cylinder, broken sieves and fogs out the back worse than mosquito control for 500 it's theirs. If not that's what the scrap man is paying.

Of course I've NEVER been to one, nor will I EVER go, you dope! You have no business running that old 204 in any derby, period! You go call the scrap dealer and have the job FINISHED ONCE AND FOR ALL!!!! Leave the torment out of it!

i don't think that 'fire hazard' is a valid point with old combines. i have seen plenty of pictures of the the new deere combines burning up. ps, about twentyfive years ago i was in a combine derby with a wore out rusted out old high 45 deere that i bought on a sale for fifty dollars and after the derby i sold it for one hundred dollars and i had a good time.
