Well leaving politics out of it and like it or not, here in America, we have a government that is doing their darndest to put an end to not only farming, but our way of life.
POINT 1: The EPA is trying to designate even dust kicked up by plowing as breathing hazard to anyone and everyone. What on a farm does not create dust?
POINT 2: SB S510 (Senate Bill 510) says that no one can even GIVE away produce to anyone outside of the family that grew it. They call it the "moderation of the food safety act".
POINT 3: The department of labor has made it illegal for anyone to work on a farm under the age of 16, therefore breeding farming out those that may want to pursue what generations before them did to provide for this and other nations.
Now, the younger generations may have their problems, but the older generations such as my generation have allowed our government to get away with what they are getting away with, unchecked. The younger generation may have their problems, but the older generations, my generation have some things to be ashamed of and for, and not leaving them the same chances and freedoms left to us, is one of them. How in the world can we down them for not showing the potential to be good stewards if we were not such good stewards ourselves? We cannot blame what is coming out of Washington on them. They did not allow it to happen, we did. We ARE to blame for the crops that we are reaping, we planted the seeds and farmed what we farmed.
Plenty of blame to go around, starting in my mirror for tolerating and tolerating and being on the verge of tolerating even more.

JB Weld is basically an epoxy glue that does an exceptionally good job of bonding to cast iron and steel along with several other materials. As I mentioned, it is so common that I have yet to buy a tractor that did not have JB Weld used somewhere. It is sometimes used so well you can't tell its there and other times used as a sloppy quick fix. Finding where and how it can be used correctly is key to whether you are using it as an "inelegant hack" or an integral solution to difficult and expens
