Well the Case 931 is all torn apart and parts have been ordered. Should be at my parts suppliers place by end of week. We have three great parts suppliers on the Case forum that quickly provide new and used parts at reasonable prices. I fabed up a stand to support the tractor, and a bracket to lift the block with the cherry picker.
Yesterday I got the cab in the shop so I can start refurbishing that, plus I drove the 440 in to fix a generator problem, and finish the wireing for the lights on the cab I built for it. The shop is getting a bit crowded. with 3 tractors and a small dozer in it, plus the front end and cab of the 931 taking up floor space.

I have a Royall wood/coal boiler in the shop. It heats the whole house and full walkin celler plus the shop very nicely. Back in 1992 I tore out our old forced air system and designed and installed a whole house radiant floor heating system. Five years ago, I took the Royall boiler out of my dads house after he died, and installed it in my shop and hooked it to my radiant system, along with a solar hot water system which supplies our domestic hot water also. We haven't burned a drop of heating oil in 5 years. There is a unit heater suspended between the overhead doors in the shop which I turn on during the days. The boiler puts off some ambient heat, and once I have the floor and all the steel warmed up in the shop, the temp remains very constant.

I had one of those Royal stoves for about 25 years and they are well built, didn't know they still made them.
