mkirsch,

That's what I thought, too. I deal extensively with steel fabrication, and suppliers, and I also have quite a few fab shops that I use when I get too busy or don't have the right tools for the job.

I wish I had the part to take a picture to show you. It's a fairly complex part, that is basically a big bellcrank. It is built from a piece of steel pipe, that is actually not steel pipe from what I have been told. The pipe is not welded where the rolled steel meets end to end. One fab guy I deal with said that it could be to cushion any hard jarring from use. Because it was not welded, it twisted along the unwelded seem, similar to the same torsional affect of wringing out a dish cloth, collapsing it in parts, and expanding it in other parts. The bear of the situation is that they have checked with steel suppliers from here(the steel city) all the way to Cleveland, and no one can get a piece of pipe that is the correct outer diameter in a substantial thickness. It's at a fab shop right now, and he is going to try to make a substitute somehow, but, he has had it since October, and it is almost February now. If he can't put humpty dumpty back together again, I'll have to try it myself. I am not looking forward to that, especially if I could just go buy a new one. I'm half tempted to look into buying a Kewanee 90 which is a flat fold 20 footer, that is only a little over 12 foot wide when folded. The way it is now, I have to hire trucking to move the 15 footer I have from one farm to the next, because I can't pull it down the road, being close to 17 feet wide including the frame.

I see guys out west and north of here that can take a 6 row combine down the road with the head on it, and I am jealous. I guess that is the price you pay for living this close to the city of Pittsburgh.
