Dad stopped by a guys place last year when our blower was down with a bad bearing because he had an old gehl hi-throw in the weeds. He ended up buying that (no PTO shaft for it so we still haven't used it) and while talking, the guy mentioned he had 2 cylinders in the shed he'd sell for $25/ a peice. It was a good price, but at the time we really didn't need them and he didn't have the cash.
He stopped by today on the way home from the feed mill and asked about those cylinders again. He got them for $25 for the pair w/ hoses!! They're International 3000 cylinders that look like brand new. 3x8 bore & stroke, great shape, just need to put an elbow on the cylinders to the hoses, as right now they stick straight out. Look like they're an o-ring type, instead of NPT.
Good buy today. Espescially since I had to take one of our other cylinders and mount it to our new chopper. The hoses on that one were leaking and needed longer ones anyway so it's now dedicated to stay on the chopper.
2 IH cylinders for $25 aint too bad. Kinda the cherry on top of a good day. I got the knife sharpener freed up on the 892 today and sharpened the knives, adjusted the shear bar, etc....
Next major thing on the list is gonna be replacing most of the sprockets that are badly worn on it.
See another 892 on craigslist for $600 that's a few counties away. Really thinking hard about it, as it could either be a parts machine or we could have one for hay and one for corn... either way it's not a bad price. Don't know if it's got any heads though.

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and
