I have 6 tractors that I tinker with. 1940, 43, 44 Farmall H's, 1950 JD A, 1950 Case VAI, and a 1951 Farmall Cub. The Cub was purchased in 96 for a mowing tractor for our 7 acres. The JD A was purchased as a project in 2011 and took almost 8 years to get running. The 40, 43 H's and VAI were my dads. The 44 H purchased in 18 was originally going to be a parts tractor but I decided to fix it. It took about 2 years to get running. The cub still gets used mowing but mainly road side and pond banks with the sickle mower. It needs an engine rebuild, it is a tired tractor. The 43 H has a 3 point and I mow with a 5' rotary cutter. The 44 H mows with a 5" pull type rotary cutter. The VAI, JD A, and 40 H are taken to local shows and driven to town once in a while. I have more money in all of them than they are worth. As to the cost, I kept track of what I spent on the JD A while rebuilding it and will never track one again. It makes you wonder if your sane. These tractors are my hobby and I will keep them running.

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
