My grandpa owned a Ford front loader before he moved to a smaller house and smaller piece of property. It was blue, being a newer from the 1990s, and my younger brother and I nicknamed it Big Blue.
My grandparents lived less than 2 miles from me, and from the time I was a toddler until I started going to school, I used to go to my grandparents house every day from 7am until the evening, and my brother and I would have dinner with them. My grandpa loved using his tractor and my brother and I used to help him around the property, mainly just watching as he pulled stumps and loved mulch. We would also help my grandma, who owned a small gator utility vehicle, with her gardening. Just thinking about those days at my grandparents house brings back fond memories.
My favorite memory with the tractor was my grandpa teaching me how to drive it and operate the hydraulics for the front loader. After I started going to school, I went to my grandparents less often, but still typically saw them once a week or more. When I was old enough to do work on my own, they would pay me a modest wage to do yard work for them.
Anyways, thinking about my grandpa teaching me to use the tractor is my favorite tractor memory. What is your favorite tractor or farming memory?

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
