Steve there is no question you have a very good head on your shoulder. You do not live on the top side. I read some of the posts and you must just plain understand you will make it. If not you can go on welfare (come on now don't get ticked off --read the rest)if it is a decision to feed your child or watch them starve. There are few on this site that has never got some sort of help. (I will bet the eyebrows raised when they read that!) I have never been on walfare and will have to work till I am unable to do so. The wealthy will never admit to others that they got a little help from home, caught a lucky break, Farm subsity, or just given a break by the good Lord. (We ALL think we started at the bottom and somehow made it by working hard only and saving)Yet we we also say the ones with more just got lucky, got a lot from home, got lucky---etc. etc. etc. I live in a town where walfare is a bad thing, however Our city got a grant for sewer, water, and streets. Many of the jobs were a result of some type of a break. Many folks get tax breaks as a corperation, student loans at a reduced rate or now if I think hard enough heck I got a FHA house loan. We all think we are going broke, so does the wealthy folks. We are going broke with a whole lot of others that are in the same boat. We had a family set down discusion years ago and asked the kids how we could save. Surprising how the kids AND mom AND dad could see the problems with the OTHER family members. All this has to make your head spin, and my biggest suggestion is to look down into your shoes and see who is wearing them, then shut your computer off and talk to the one who is walking beside you. The two of you need to decide together if you can afford smaller footprints in yours. There is not a right or wrong, And it most definatly will work out. Make your own plans, understanding a wifes maternal feelings is pretty hard to understand till you get a child either now or in the future. My financual planning never came out on paper, still seems it never will,probably made alot of bad decisions no doubt. Kids still think I'm the best and smartest. NOW THAT THEY GOT OLDER AND ARE THINKING OF HAVING KIDS. Just got paged to chain up the firetrucks so I will shut the heck up. Dave NE IA

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.
