thanx randy , spare us the details ,.I try to be careful every step ,. but things just seem to happen , this occurred to Me 15yrs ago,. the predator was a replaced shear bolt , a misplaced shield on the 60 ft auger ..we intended to use the 930 Case as the power for the auger . I wanted the antifreeze to circulate better ,.. my son came walking up and said the battery needed more ummph if we were gonna use the 930 ..I told him ,,. "never mind here comes Virgal in the semi right now,. go get the little 1010 massey ,". all went well ,. we were all lined up and had everything filling and loading,.. and had just started chat visiting , when I noticed the small spill on the hopper ,,. I had a pc of triangle tin about a foot big that i placed at the problem spot , as I moved back away from the auger my left foot slipped on the mud snow and my hammer hook caught the rotating end of the shearbolt,.new coveralls and new sweats under that , turned into a instant turnacut ,. the still cold little 15 horse massey strained and lugged down to a halt..and not a second too soon ,,. I was jammed with my knee supporting the weight of the hopper and auger, (my knee bothers me occasionally today ),.. there was a pipe wrench on the bin foundation ,. virgal grabbed it and was winding back the shaft all the while asking me if I felt my legg break,?,. I told him "I did not think so but I think all circulation to my legg was cut off" ,. the clothe was so mangled . I suggested that there was utility knife in my right leg holster to cut my clothes off the shaft,. which was wound up clean into my left front hip pockets,.using the knife ,it was not long virgal found some change and then a couple bolts ands nuts wound up in there ,,. I made lite of the situation and said" if that's all the nuts he found we would be alright " .. Michael began telling virgal we intended to use the 930 , HAD WE DONE THAT ..we all agreed my left leg mite have been broken clean off because of the new clothes ,. i went to the river with virgal and unloaded did not barely have any pain, BUT, the next morning ,. oh my ! was I ever swelled up and in pain! ,,. went to Dr. he told me my bone was bruised and to expect a goose egg on my leg in a week to 10 days if it was severe enuf..and told me to " STAY OFF OFF IT " gave me some infection pills and a few for pain that I only took at ..10 days later I had a banana sized goose egg on my left leg..which was still black and blue and purple ,. it hurt for another month or more .. I WAS LUCKY,.

Today's Featured Article - Gatherin of the Orange - by Rick Nikolich. In July of 1998 I was talking to fellow Allis Chalmers collector Mike Schilling about the annual "Gathering of The Orange" AC show coming up in August of 1999. He got this wild idea that we should get a convoy of AC tractors and drive them from Charlotte, Michigan 105 miles to LaGrange, Indiana. ... [Read Article]
