Was in a hurry to get that year long pile of hay and droppings out of the sheep pasture and out on the hayfield while weather is still tolerable. Friday I backed into a post with the loader tractor damaging the plumbing on the auxilliary hydraulic tank. Took me all Saturday morning to get it replumbed. Only took a $2 pipe nipple, but getting the broken stub out if back of tractor without damaging threads was a task.
Today the floor of the spreader buckled catching about 3 or 4 of the cross bars on the apron and breaking the idler sprocket bracket at front of apron. I can weld it back. The floor can get a new piece of plywood. Only a two foot span needs replacing. But can I slip it in without having to open up apron? Then there is those bent cross bars... can I straighten them withouta fight?
Gotta feeling Monday isn't going to be a good day.
