Hey Dennis, I think you named just about everything needed...and make each piece the best money can buy....The problem is that once you could afford all the equipment you'd never be able to afford to pay anybody that knows anything to work there...That is unless your that janitor from NY that just won, what was it, nearly 88 million dollars..........As for the shops already being out there, Dad and I do mainly the older cranes and heavy equipment, but we occasionally run across a farm tractor or three. If you'd see some of the jobs we've been asked to take on you'd know why we often joke about changing the name of the company from Harmon's Equipment Repair to Harmon's Equipment Resurrection Service. We each run a large field service truck, we have a small but adequate machine shop setup,(we farm out the really big stuff), a homemade welding buildup machine for doing shafts, rollers, sheeves, etc, a big sand blaster with a 185CFM compressor, a 75+ ton press, brake riveting tools for doing crane bands, along with a mess of other normal and special tools. The biggest problem is that no matter how many tools we get or how big the shop is none of it is ever enough. Good luck with the dream and if your ever in the Concord area look us up.......Sorry,I didn't intend this to sound like plug for us, we stay covered in work and then some already, but proof reading it that's kinda how it sounded.....Heck on second thought call us we'll take all the work we can get...LOL

After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
