Got  a call to reattach the cutting edge they ripped off the old International 560 loader. Not to bad just had to make up some keepers and weld them solid, the old pins and rubbers just wouldn't hold any more.The machineThe edge back in place, comealongs are a great toolAll done, ready to load trucks in the AMThe old girl in action loading the truck I was driving the next day, old iron still earning it's keepDisclaimer; "I am just an a$$hole welder, don't take it personally ."
Reply:I miss our old 988 with the 10 yd bucket we used to use to load snow after big storms. It never really got used for anything else and it might sit for a year or two before we got enough snow to use it, but it made us a ton of money when we needed it..No government ever voluntarily reduces itself in size. Government programs, once launched, never disappear. Actually, a government bureau is the nearest thing to eternal life we'll ever see on this earth! Ronald Reagan
Reply:2 scoops of this old girl loads a trailer dump, but we take 3 because we are hauling on private land. The old IH makes the new CAT 972 that the people who hired us rented look like one of my Sons toys.Disclaimer; "I am just an a$$hole welder, don't take it personally ."
Reply:At least they stopped before it was a total floor and bucket job, that really makes a difference if you fix it while it is just small."Si Vis Pacem Para Bellum"Lincoln Idealarc 250 AC/DCMillermatic 251   Syncrowave 300   30A spoolgunLincoln MP210Hypertherm 45(2) LN 25(2) Lincoln Weldanpower 225 CV(4) SA200   1 short hood    SA250    SAM 400
