Just been using the regular flat ended ones. Actually need a new one using the dam thing so much.
Well boys and girls....I need to start my day
They are great. Just used mine the other day,had to put it in a socket and use 2 feet of extensions to have room to swing a hammer.
Good morning guys. Did I hear tool talk? A pin punch has a straight shaft and a roll pin punch has a button on the end to center itself in the roll pin.
Yup just posted that never knew they were made.
Oops, late to the party!
I was actually restricted a lot growing up from certain activities due to my uncle having just been killed.
I will say this, physical work is even starting to disappear from farming. Automatic hay balers and stackers are becoming affordable. Same with de-tasselers and even tomato pickers now. Soon there won't be any jobs for high school kids or illegals in the ag industry.
Yep. Don't worry, we're still on coffee, haven't switched to liquor yet
I sold a lot to the Ag techs. Farm equipment is full of roll pins. I even sold roll pin punches that go in a air chisel. Those really work well!
I need a set of those!! Hey I need a recommendation for a good, affordable set of snap ringer pliers for the 727 rebuild
I have to take a pic of the bushing driver I had the guy down the street make seriously slick for distributors, be back in a few have to start the heat out there also.
Manual Detasseling seed corn is mostly done by migrant workers. We have A huge Pioneer Seed Corn plant just south of here. Whty is not done by machine is still done by hand but a lot of the kids don't want to work that hard. They buss migrant workers in and house them in an old church in town.
Home made and handy!
Same. They used to bus them in to do the tomatoes and green beans but that's all but stopped
So i also scored on an aluminum radiator, universal with a passenger side inlet. Problem is I think it's too large for the dart or the polara. May make me an engine test stand
Here's a video of a Oxbo de-tassler. Small rubber tires spin against each other to grab and pull the tassel out. There's sensors that keep the wheels at the correct height. I sold tools at that shop. Cool machines.
Pretty slick put a straight edge over the top of the dist, drive it in and it is perfect, then one of the two testers done.

That's cool, never thought about that.
They have cutters too. Lawn mower blades driven by hydraulic orbit motors.
Nice and Nice!
I also want him to make me something with a narrow shaft and a disk? on the end to drive them out, has to be crescent shaped, been using a long punch but can see sometime damaging a housing, prob on someone's rare *** one. Tried a inside bearing puller just to awkward to use. He is making me a burinishing bar also that I can just use cutting compound on to align the new ones, hardly ever do it but a must when you change out the bushings in them.
Fixed!
When I was up at the farm Junkyard Ken showed me around the new office, sob guess what he has a 10' bed lath back in there, can you say driveshaft!!!!!!
