I would like at this time to say a special thanks to Guy Fay and Ken Updike for their participation in this millionth Farmall or IH discussion. You have cleared up a lot of misconseptions. While I have never read your books, I will admit to looking for them at book supply stores. Is it a case of having to order directly from you? Living here in Canada I tend to get a bit reluctant on small orders across the border. Shipping and brokerage fees being the killer. Is there distribution for your books here in Canada? I tend to rely probably 90% on one source for books. that being a guy that attends all old iron shows. I have never seen your books, at stores here in Canada. I do hope guys here on YT discussions have learned how very important it is to be exact when quoting someone else. We do have the right to make ourselves look as stupid or smart as we wish. I don't think we have that right with the opinion of others. I for one never get too awfully worked up over mistakes in spelling, grammar, etc., as long as the working language conveys the message intended. I do believe 75% of the people who view these discussions never get involved, and that is a shame. As you may or may not know, I never hide my e mail when posting. I get hundreds of e mails from guys we've never seen at YT, asking some technical item about their tractor. I always encourage them to get involved here at YT. Some do, I can right now think of a dozen or more regulars here at YT, whom I had e mail correspondence with for sometime before their first post. I say to the onlookers, get involved, you would discuss your tractor with your neighbor. The guys here at YT are no different, just neighbors further away from home. One more thing Guy and Ken, I did throw a couple more questions at each of you, on the other threads.

Fabrication (Who Me? Make it myself?) - by Chris Pratt. First of all, what are the reasons for not fabricatin your own parts? Most judgements on what should be purchased rather than fabricated stem from: Originality - If the tractor restoration is to be 100% original, it is likely that you should spend the time and money to locate the component in the used or New-old-stock market. Since this can be extremely difficult, you may want to fabricate the item or purchase a modern replacement temporarily, but eventually, you s
