Digger Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Living on a "farm" I have all of those plus couple of ride-on mowers and a tractor with necessary implements, slasher, rotary hoe, carry-all, ripper. Sorry no pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-RAM Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 My ol' trusty '48 Ford 8N with a 226 c.i.d. 6-cyl flathead (known as a Funk conversion). I just put flat-free tires and wheels on the 6-ft. finish mower this spring. Time to hit the field again, maybe next weekend... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry no pics. I'm with Rob. I have a lot more then that. John Deere riding lawn more, 42" deck, self propelled 24" lawn mower.

Plus all the painting tools when I used to paint houses, 3 different size ladders, tallest one goes up to about 36'. Step ladders, wheel barrel, car ramps, Jack stands, gas powered weed whips, vac blowers, side walk gas powered edger,....and more. Too much to list. But don't have any photos of it all.

StRanger7032 Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 That Toyota Tundra will outlast every other piece of equipment in the photo! I just bought my third, and my first probably still has 300,000 good miles left for whoever owns it now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quapman Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 BBP you got some nice stuff there. You don't get much better than a Stihl chainsaw and those Echo weed wackers are pretty kick a$$ too. I've moved from the country to the city so I don't have anything left for yard iron. Had me a JD LX255 mower with the snow blower attachment which was pretty sweet. And all the other yard iron required to maintain my old yard of 200x120. But my hats off to C-RAM. That ole tractor is the epitome of "yard iron". That is some sweet yard iron right there.

sparquelito Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Here's a view of some of the Sparky household yard iron. Some things I just couldn't bring myself to drag out of the garage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C-RAM Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Nice!! I had a Massey 135 gas powered for awhile for bushhogging. But I didn't really use it enough to justify having to work on it all the time. "Working" on my 8N is wholly therapeutic - it's comforting to be able to fall back on your acquired knowledge and actually ACCOMPLISH something; a points distributor, alternator, gravity-fed carburetor... these are all things I miss when I look in the engine compartment of a modern vehicle. Just getting out to turn a wrench on a weekend - a simple oil change, new plugs, a new belt, check timing, clean filters, lube some joints - it's good for the soul.

Murph Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 This is the handiest piece of equipment out at my hunting / camping land. I haul chainsaws, weedeaters, batterys, boards, bags of concrete, solar panels, everything with it. Getting a dump trailer next week so I can do some road work. I could have never built this solar powered aeration system in the middle of the woods without it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
