Immediately shut that down I hope. [emoji33]

Broken wire detector circuit?

Yellow strand. I forget which company made that. Union Wire Rope maybe.

Wireco brand color is brown strand. No paint. Hah!

Leschen brand is red strand.

There was a green and a purple.

U S Steel & C F & I (Colorado Fuel & Iron).

Broderick & Bascomb.

Let’s not forget Armco (Kansas City).

Always look for the marker thread in the core.

We never made elevator rope when I worked there.

Wire Rope Corp. of America. Family owned business.

It was a lower grade of carbon steel.

Yep, pull the hook and locked out we did.
6 new 5/8” ropes installed.
Back in the fight it is.

Now the walk behind tractor stuff is a different story. Those things are pretty neat.

Have you ever seen one of these outfits?

^^^^^^ those are a couple kinds of different, don't want/need one tho.
Did drip some fuel in my $10 Tilly from Mondays auction, 1st pull fire
There is a lot of rock in these parts. Makes digging bunch of trouble. Lil thing may help stir it up better. Then the plants scavanged from yard waste dump can have a hole to propagate or decompose. Got some flowers out front from just that shallow transplant. The stuff from hanging pots looks to want more

We are getting some rain now, started the light/sound show about 4:00am, I heard a few sprinkles hit the windows then stop. I thought maybe I should go out & put up the windows in the pickup but decided it wasn’t worth it. I’ll gladly sit on a towel for awhile.

Yesterday really rolled the crops up around here!

They say tropical moisture here in 8 days! Hope they are right.

Ventured out to put up the pickup windows, 1.50” so far. Hopefully you get some precipitation before next week @Cat 525. It will be a good morning to finish up sharpening chains & clean up saws.

What happened there?
That a creek bank? Or a sink hole?

 

[JimBear]

Looks like a combo of creek bank/sinkhole. Maybe one of the Minnesmowda fellas can chime in. I inquired with my daughter about them but she has yet to reply. Whatever it is looks like a disaster.

Gave up on the Solo 70. [emoji2959][emoji2959]

Tore down the Alpina 70.

Cylinder cleaned up just maybe serviceable. [emoji1696]

RH threads on the clutch nut. I should have read the directions. Didn’t wreck anything and the clutch slid off by gravity while I was assembling the puller. [emoji2960]
