OK here goes ........ I am new to tractors and have made a very good friend up the road from me . Hes a 66 Year Old Farmer and hes quite knowledgeable. I am a 40 year old Electrician . Pretty damn good at what I do . I was first hanging around the " Farmers " a few years ago and was getting to know him as well as he was me . I saw a small stick on the Ground , in front of the shop one day and bent over to pick it up . I then swung my arm back to launch it into the Pasture when he barked at me " Whaddya gonna do with that stick ? I said "toss it in the pasture" . He asked me why I didnt place it in the firebox in the shop ? I asked him as serious as I have ever been," How much heat will you get outta that stick" ? and Laughed a bit . He looked at me and said . " NONE!!! IF YOU THROW IT IN THE PASTURE". Dammit if he wasnt right . I to this day watch this mans every move and learn something every time we are together .
