Hi, Skinner.
There's NO hope for you. You're addicted. (Definition: "An 'addiction' is something that is done to avoid feeling a feeling." Seems you are avoiding feeling that another was lost when you could have saved it.)

Thanks for the photos and GOOD work.

Just my 0.02.

You have a wonderful day. Best wishes. Deas Plant.

I can't compete! Skinner wins again! Nice saves. Let's see if you can button one of them up in time for SM. The pressure is on.
Thanks for saving them, lord only knows what would have happened to them had you not rescued them. Keep on hoardin'!!! JM

Looks like some of the equipment from DJ’s is going to a good home

Good additions. The day I find a wide 30 I’ll do a flip. Hopefully we can meet up at the SM show!

Well done JM. Tell me about that trailer - looks like a sliding axle gooseneck. What's the brand? I like it!

Thank you for the replies.
The trailer is hydraulic slide. Made for moving orchard equipment. Works great for moving small caterpillars too. Easy to use and has a winch.

Very nice finds!
Wide Gauge too!
Looks like with a little TLC you will have one of them running before you know it.

I certainly miss the old machines that were part of growing up.
Keep us posted on progress.
