I got to thinking about how many people may have bought a tractor(s) overtime and never used it for some reason or another. I can think of a couple of circumstances where this happened in my neighborhood. I had an old neighbor that died of nasty colon cancer a few years ago. The last fall he farmed row crops he traded in a nice FWA Case 3294 for a newer bigger hp Versatile FWA tractor. Sad story is he purchased the tractor in late winter and he died weeks after it was delivered only to never see it used on his farm in the field. The tractor was used in his funeral procession though. I thought that was an awesome tribute to a life long farmer. I had another neighbor that was a hoarder real bad. he bought 2 Case tractors and never ever used them. 1 was a 400 (401) diesel and the other was a 600 (611b) rowcrop, which I bought later. These 2 older Case tractors sat for years under roof thankfully, but the guy never farmed. I know he just liked to have things, just to say he owned them. Any of you know of the same type of thing happen to them or someone you know? Just wondering how much good old iron is out there like these. Kow Farmer Kurt

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
