Pair-a-dice farm said: (quoted from post at 07:23:27 05/22/15) I often wonder why people gripe about the condition of an old piece of equipment that they bought to fix up. If it was in perfect shape why would it need fixing up.
If someone wants everything as it came from the factory they should buy new. Sometimes I see something a farmer has screwed up but more often than not it was messed up by a yuppie that had no idea which end of a cow the tail was on.
Pair-a-c and Eldon: That's because some of us were taught to do things right the first time and we expect others to do the same not some half baked repair cause it was cheap or someone was too lazy to go back and fix it right.
And I've seen far more half baked farmerized repairs done by farmers. Yuppies pay someone to fix their stuff.
