Well today it is almost impossible to buy all made in usa . we need a new toaster . and we have come up empty handed . I thought that Kitchen Aid still made one in the U S , Nope made in China . I have a hard time finding work boots that fit as i have a narrow foot . Use to be Mason had boots that fit like a glove and i got good ware out of them . well i bought a new pair of the 989 style boot and lets just say i am not happy with the product . The stitching is poor and they did not come with the removable insole like it claimed and the as i call them Hob nails started to break off due to poor quality steel . and i really don't want to hear how great Red Wings are either . as i have been down that road before and got less life out of the great Red wings. Plus even if you find Made in the U S of A is no guarantee that it is better. Case in point Ft. wheel bearings and hubs(Dumbest stupidest design ever IMHOP ) Needed new hub and bearings for my truck , ok so i can buy at 10% above dealer cost , still 234 bucks . Yea i am CHEAP , so i start looking and i find a place that makes them . So i call them and set up a dealer account . Made in U S A with TIMKIN bearings and my cost on the bearing for my truck is 100 bucks i am happy for 5300 miles when the first one took a dump and the second one went out a little over a 1000 miles later . Then the fight was on . They told me that they failed because i used and impact to install them , Ah no they were all hand wrenched and torqued to spec.'s as i do not have a impact at the house or on the truck and this job was a true shade tree job done under the tree in the back yard. Got new bearings and installed them and the new bearings are headed south once again as you can see that the grease is seeping past the seals .

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in ... [Read Article]
