you guys are to funny  :laugh: :laugh: Kbeitz is there any thing you don't have

Yes.... Time....
I would love to have time to do nothing...
I'm never board. Just tired. For some reason I just can't stop.
I'm past the point of to much to take care of. I have tractors
that has not been started for years. Someone needs to knock
some sense into me. My poor Datsun has not been started
in 15 years. I'm just a pack rat. I see no end. Stuck in a maze.

Forumites seem to like to come together to help other forumites.  K, ya better be careful... there's more than one way to "help" people!  :D  Remember those tractors that ain't been started in years?  They'll be started and running and being used...in somebody else's yard!

One thing I find at the junkyard is a lot of Stanley 25' powerlock tape measures that
has the end of the tape broken off. I was thinking wow. I'll just go to E-bay and buy
new replacement tapes (#32-625) Wrong... The cheapest I can find is $17.99 and
I can buy new the whole tape for around $5.00... Hummm....

Now if I could find a few with broken springs I would be good to go...

Kbeitz,

   Go ahead and buy the $17.99 replacement tapes to fix them and just tell everyone it is a government run operation. Line the time my son bought a calf for $150, fed it for nearly a year (at my expense of course) then took it to the sale 40 miles away and sold it for $135.

Craftsman had stopped making tape measures ,  but now I see a Sidewinder tape measure . Not sure if any other manufacturers are making them.

I have been finding stuff every week but today I found something worth posting.

Ireland Machine & Foundry Co PTO winch. It's missing the wheels and the front
of the PTO shaft that goes onto the tractor. I dont know how well it works yet
because I have yet to get it unloaded. You can tell that the wheels was just
taken off of it but I could not find them. It need a new wood handle that works
what I'm thinking the brakes. Looks like this will make a great logging winch.

Also under the winch you can see a Sears cultivator
with part of the 3 point hitch. That stuff brings big bucks.
This load cost me $75.00

A little history on the  Ireland Machine & Foundry.

  In 1886, A. Bertsell Ireland, of Greene, NY, patented
a shingle machine and a saw blade. His shingle machine
(and probably the saw blade) were manufactured by
Lyon Iron Works of Greene, NY. At some point, perhaps
in the 1890s, manufacture moved to Ireland Machine &
Foundry Co., Inc.

     Ireland's product line expanded to include a variety
of sawmills and related machinery. Some of their machinery
was sold by the John Deere Plow Co. The company survived
until at least 1936.

The PTO shaft shouldn't be hard to come by but I wonder what the axle was from, I should know  ::).

It came with two Dodge moon hub caps. Looks like 4-1/4" bolt centers.
I also need to find all the lug bolts. I'm thinking I have a PTO shaft.

That's cool because Greene and Norwich are two of my neighboring towns.  Of course none of this stuff is produced around here anymore...

NY has a really amazing history with all that kind of stuff.

Ox

What I find amazing is all these towns around here are basically dead as far as manufacturing but were once manufacturing giants.  Lots of stuff going on.  Heck, my little dead town was once a central hub for shipping when the Chenango Canal was operational.  Then the railroad came and all the shipping just kind of died slowly but I don't know why cause I ain't that smart.  I'm thinking most little towns were once bustling with manufacturing, iron works, sawmills, dairies, etc.  Oh well, at least we have small momentos. 

K, that's a great find with that PTO winch.  It's amazing to me, all the time, what people will throw away.

I have piles of stuff I am trying to sell. it is getting easier to just say screw it and throw it away. Especially since I can't get anyone to take it. But I also can't bring myself to throw it away.

Kbeits wanna come paruse my junkyard? :)

Around here when we can't sell something or don't have the time
to do it we send it to the Amish consignment auction. They take
around 15% of what it sells for and you get the rest. I have sold
a lot of stuff there but I have also bought my share.
To find a  consignment auction in your area just go to

I lost the hubcap on my dodge the day I brought it home (bought used).  I had every intention of replacing it but apparently I am a procrastinator.  That was seven or eight years ago, or maby ten.

I went back to the junkyard to find some tires and rims for the winch
and I found two real nice tires. I walked over to the pile where I found
the winch and they was almost done cutting up the rest of the pile.
So I looked around for the missing PTO shaft and I found if. I sure wish
I got there before the junkers took off the old rims and tires. On side
had left hand lug bolts. I was very lucky to have some in my lug bolt
drawer. Tomorrow I'm going to make a new handle for the broken one.



 



 



 



 

I think I will weld a small arch on the back of this thing.
Then I will have two log arches. One big and one small.
