I saw this while killing time on the web. I'm willing to bet someone on here is already working on how to power on off of their PTO or belt drive for the big hog roast next year.

Well, it looks interesting but, I'm thinkin that by the time you have that all set up (especially if you have to remove loaded tires and wheels), you could just about have a unit welded up with an electric motor installed and save the high HP for the field use. But then, I am lazy that way.

Well, I won't be at the hog roast but you might see me at the ice cream social. This mobile ice cream factory will be able to run 15 freezers. It needs alot more work and money to finish up but I am getting there. The IPTO is air shifted.

Here's another one that I use. The horizontal piece is a wood splitter. The vertical is a 900 lb hammer. The wood splitter also serves as a press brake for bending flatbar up to 1" x 3".

I love it!
All three tractors and their "functionality" are great!
Here's an idea for using all three: advertise wood splitting for hire, donations for truck wash while waiting, and free ice cream for the whole family.
Thanks for sharing you photos with us.

Please forgive me while I wipe the tears of laughter from my face.
The photo with the sickle mower did me in.
I must admit there are places on the farm that your "tall grass" cutter would come in real handy.
I'll agree with you about the Internationals and Farmalls, just don't let the [b:654c4848f0]glennster[/b:654c4848f0] find out about it.
Have my eye on a nice looking [b:654c4848f0]Farmall M[/b:654c4848f0] in Mt. Pleasant, TX.
Even though its been moved from the front of the car lot to the back side of the office, I'm just too scared to ask how much they want for it.
Maybe I'll wait till we have ice and/or snow on the ground and hope for a lower asking price.
I suppose some day I'll have to "come out of the closet" and get me a red and silver tractor.
Honestly, I really do like what you've done with your tractors.

All goes back to "hope and change" - hope its a good tractor and Nancy doesn't change her mind.
Roy,
The traction aids were manufactured in Canada. I bought them at an auction near Toronto. Don't know if they were ever imported into the US. I may have the only set below the boarder.
The cleats are convertible. They fold into the center when not needed. I think they weigh around 400 lbs each.
Other manufacturers had something similar but not as heavy or convertible.

Here's another picture with the cleats folded in. The hinge pins have an offset extension that is not centered. This produces an over-center condition when the cleat is either stored or riding on the tire tread. There are two springs per cleat to provide enough tension.
I had to remove four inches of depth on the mounting ring to make them work on my tractor. They will now fit my W-400 and F-400.

This will sound dumb, I'm sure... but I've been reading up on how they used to do osage orange hedgerows instead of fencing or barbed wire. Was thinking it would be interesting to attempt that, once I owned land someday.
But I could never figure out how you'd keep it managed if you had enough of it to be useful. You'd spend the better part of the year trimming it all by hand.
Never occurred to me that there were such attachments for tractors. Are these easy to find?
