You may have to build a new shed for the treasurer’s.

Just a one way cylinder, used in bar mowers, dump box wagons, two point hitches, batwing mowers & other stuff that needs some extra grunt raising but gravity can take care of the lower process. Probably worth $75 -$125 around here.

Thanks for the input.
I figured you know all about it.
If you have a use for it I still have your address......it's yours for about $12 shipping.

Auctions are addictive.

Yup....
We went to over 200 auctions in 2017.

@Sawdust Man

What are barge box wagons going for down in neck of the woods ?

Idk, but I'll keep my eyes open.
At the last auction a manure spreader brought $30 and they couldn't get $5 for a hay rake....both older pieces but still....

I'm thinking of evicting the sawmill from the barn.....at 32x84 we could put a respectable amount of junk in there.

Turd hursts are hot sellers here, cattle market being really high helps those & haying equipment sell well.

I should say that pto driven turd hursts sell really well. I haven’t seen any of the older ground driven spreaders sell.

I really wouldn’t want one, Dads was always “crapping out” when loaded & a pitch fork was used to unload it, kind of defeated to purpose of a pull behind self cleaning turd hurst.

I just scowl when I see those older spreaders listed or meander by one at an auction.

I tried to buy this wagon a couple years ago from my buddy Chase, he told me I could just have it, he wasn’t ever going to use it. I added some side boards a couple weeks ago. Replaced one tire other than that it was good to go.



I bagged these 2 yesterday, I bid online & was stunned that I got them.

The big one needs some welds in couple of spots but nothing major.


This one needs a couple of runners under it, I may try to resell it.


I am going to look at this one today.



I don’t need another wagon but it’s pretty handy to just split into them & unload whenever I want.

 

[Hedgerow]

We ended up with .3” of wet here.
Maybe more coming.

Got a whole hind quarter of a hog going in the smoker here shortly..

Gonna run this one a little hotter than a pork butt..

It’s a big ole chunk. I’ll finish it in a roaster in the oven overnight.

Well, I acquired another firewood wagon, tires were a-bit spongy so I added 20# to each one & it followed me the 78 miles home at 50mph no issues.

I just need to clean it out & grease it. Some old lumber & a few tubs/barrels in it.

I will power wash it tomorrow

 

[JimBear]

I dumped .74” this morning & no additional precipitation here today. My folks had 1” overnight & another .50” through the day today.

 

[Sawdust Man]

You need a tire machine.

Now you need some spoons. I don’t believe I have ever seen one like that before.

I may know where a pneumatic one is that can possibly be gotten on the cheap. I will try to remember to inquire tomorrow.

 

[Only the Tony]

Hinges are no bueno on this one, but it lights and works well. Complimentary to grandfathers I am working on at times, just the two burner model.

I got one of those type. They’re not bad to work with. The hard part is getting the beads to seat without the blast of air an air powered machine gives you.

LOOKS like a HP special

 

[Sawdust Man]

I'm totally joking about that tire changer thing.....most likely it's just going in the scrap bin.....very unlikely I'd try using it.
Just one of those deals where they put something I want with a bunch of garbage.....this time it was that silly thing and an old dead pump.... with a brand new set of tandem trailer fenders I was after.

 

[Sawdust Man]

Some of the stuff I bought on purpose.....
