Quoting Removed, click Modern View to seeOh man, I've cobbled together so many things over the years. I guess the longest lasting and probably handiest is the grapple claw I made for the DuAl loader I had on the 630. I made it somewhere in the late 70's and used it till three years ago when I gave the loader to a young man who put the loader and claw on his 630.
The latest is an oil evacuation system I made for the new shop. It's the bottom of a 55 gallon drum with little casters mounted to the bottom. There's a handle attached so it can be shoved under the truck or tractor to catch the oil. A suction hose is attached to the bottom. The hose goes to a pump that sucks the oil out and pumps it to a 550 gallon barrel in the cold storage side of the building. We drain the oil into it, flip the switch to turn on the pump, wait a minute , and when we pull it back out from under the vehicle it's empty. There's a screen in it to catch the oil plug if it's dropped and the filter can sit on the screen to drain out. I wish I would have made this thing years ago. I think I have a pic of it on the cellphone.
Bottom pic is the drain pan in storage. It seems like a little oil still ends up on the floor but it's not much. Jim

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
