The problem around here is the older gentlemen dont take us 20-30 year olds serious I am A member of a club for now and between me and dad have one of the larger moline collections in the local area usually out of 300 tractors at the local show wew bring 8-10 a year depends on the year and how busy we are I Enjoy helping the club but about a year ago the asked if I would help move a large stationary engine 30000# I went to help and rode with an older friend of mine got the engine ready to go up and I mentioned the concrete was shaped so the bottm crankcase would not come out with out busting it the president of our club said that it would and not to worry so we took it up until the crank case it the concrete and bent the I beam that was being used to lift it the guy I rode with had agreed with me at first so when it came time to let the engine back down in the hole and bust the concrete we had to leave to go home and get chores done last time I ever went with them to help move something And I was the stupid one.
