Rich, there was a recent post about that show Building Wild, and I think the poster said that episode "Dirty Dozen" took place just north of here, sure looked like it. I can't say how many old barns went down in '11 with all that snow we got, but there was one nearby our other place, slate roof, all kinds of beams and boards, right next to a 2 lane road, and it just sets there, rotting. Sure there is labor, but there is cost savings incentive to salvage. I like what he did with that half fallen down old barn. The one I mention was about that size, dry useful space is a premium, even on the show, I think they made a mistake towing the previous cabin down, and destroying it, that would have held and kept dry, a bunch of firewood, enough for several hunting seasons or for when you just want to go up to that awesome new cabin they built. It would have complimented the new one, seems there was space too, perfect use for it or how many other uses? Maybe it was just for the show, I was like what in heck are they doing ? LOL !! Reason I say that is I've seen so much waste just in my own little circle, we had 3 huge barns, a very large well equipped shop, everything you needed to could have been kept inside, all of its gone, now its scarce, have to tarp things, squeeze my tractor inside the garage here, no space to work, salvage is something to really appreciate, even with the labor, its always worth doing in the end.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
