I myself seam to buy tractors and equipment that seam nobody wants or think its to far gone to keep and let it go. I buy it and fix them back up to good condition and working order. I take pride in making something from nothing and back in the field. The older stuff is easy enough to work on and get parts for. Now this new stuff now in 25 years may not be running simply because you just don't know if the computer and operating system will be supported after say 15 years. Case in point JD 9400 combine, If the computer dies and if you can find a used one to get it going your in good shape but no new ones are made now. Outdated and old so junk it because it wont run without it. Last year I bought a 1555 Oliver (ware it was sitting for 3 years in picture) for parts to use on my 3 1550's I have. I got it home and did a hard look at it, Record radiator new intake exhaust manifold 2 year old clutch pressure plate and throw out bearing and strait sheet metal. The bad, engine locked up 3 bad tires bad seat faded paint and missing some small parts hear and there. I could not part it out till I tried to get it running. Well I did and fixed her up and sold it and made alittle money and bought parts to fix the other 1550's I have. I took pride in the fact that I got her looking good and back in the field. The man the has it now loves it and knows what I did to it. I'm in my 50's and I figure I will keep doing this till the day I die, So your in the same boat as me and a lot of others so keep up the good work and doing what your doing. Bandit

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
