Lou, I think you forgot. As soon as I received that CD from you I sent you an email telling it had arrived and thanking you and your son for the effort. I have acknowledged receiving them on here and still look at them once in a while.
At the time I had a TD5 here as a project for my son and I to work on and posted pictures of it. When my son and I started to work on it we kept finding more and more things wrong and with starting to buy farm equipment decided that it wasn't an affordable project. I got rid of it. I let you know at the time what my decisions was and why. You did in fact tell me you thought we gave up too easily but that was my decision as to where my money was going to go. The TD5 needed pins and bushings, rails (or just new track chains) an engine, tranny work, final drive work, one sprocket and steering clutch/brakes. Do to the make and lack of parts and the cost of finding those parts it just wasn't a doable project at the time. I do intend to get another one sometime in the future but will make sure that parts are available for it.
As far as shot up deer there are 2 family members shoot the 300 who have destroyed deer year after year, one is a brother in law (wife's side) and the other is one of my son in laws brothers. Plus I have been in when they are registering deer and seen some from other hunters that I don't know but I've ask what they were shooting. I never bothered asking what they were using as far as bullet design or weight, never interested enough. My BIL shoots factory loads but I have no idea of the bullet because I don't really care. I do know my SIL's brother reloads but have never discussed what he's doing with that. So they are hardly "camp fire stories". Around here I'm about the only person I know who will pass up a shot to avoid just wounding an animal or destroying meat. I do know my BIL will take just about any shoot he can get and has spent many hours tracking wounded deer. 2 years ago he gut shot a buck with that 300 of his right before dark. He didn't find it till about 10AM the next morning. The bad part is where he was hunting at the time the max range he could shoot was about 100 yds. That was the last year he hunted my farm.

Today's Featured Article - A Cautionary Tale - by Ian Minshull. In the early 1950s my father bought an Allis Chalmers B and I used it for all the row crop work with the mangolds and potatoes, rolling and the haymaking on our farm. The farm and the Allis were sold and I have spent a lifetime working on farms throughout the country. I promised myself that one day I would own an Allis. That time event
