    Jacob I wish you all the very best and hope that in the coming weeks and months things become clearer for you. You are an inspiration to many of us. I certainly don't envy you having to pack up the garage and move it all, but the new shop being bigger will be worth it all. I agree that keeping your hobby away from your source of income will keep it enjoyable and a good release from the day to day grind. Take the time you need, hopefully some of us viewers can fill the restoration void and provide you with the motivation and knowledge you have provided all of us.

    @stephenstrohacker7863 10 месяцев назад

    Good luck, Jacob. I'm somewhat in that same boat of life changes. Currently, I'm traveling to see where I want to move to. My folks both passed away, and my siblings are dead to me. I've got 1 cousin in Illinois, and all the rest are scattered around the US. My ancestors all moved to the states prior to 1855 without knowing what they would find here, so why can't I travel to find a new life as well. Good luck, brother. I'm anxious for the tractor therapy of my own as well. My best advice for you is organization, organization, organization. Keep in mind first order retrievability so when you need something, you know exactly where to go to get it. Every minute spent organizing will save days if not weeks in the future. It's been 8 years this coming November when I broke my leg. Since then it's been nothing but recovery from the break, amputation, more amputations, heart attack, moves, etc. I can barely find my butt with both hands now. I'm not complaining, just stating facts on what can happen. Plus with the organization, you can discipline yourself for this the rest if your life. I didn't and now I feel it will take me another 5-10 years to just be back where I was 8 years ago. Only with a lot less stuff.

    • @JacobASwanson
      @JacobASwanson 10 месяцев назад

      Thanks Steve. When I got the news, I knew immediately that I wanted to move back home to WI, so that decision was easy. I like your bravery to travel and see the country for yourself to decide where to go. The rest of my life decisions, are not going to be so easy. Yes, organization is key! The next shop will be organized. It may not look like it, but I like to think I have a very organized shop, it is just so full because of the lack of space that it does not look like it.

    • @stephenstrohacker7863
      @stephenstrohacker7863 10 месяцев назад

      @JacobASwanson when in my old place, I liked to call it organized chaos. Nobody could find a thing, yet I knew where everything was. Though I did have a few surprises...lol. My pet peeve was my tool organization. That's how I made my living and needed to put my hand on the right tool immediately. Now it's all packed in a 10' x 20' locker that I can't find anything in...lol. The next shop will have a spot for each tractor with pallet racking behind it for all the components for that tractor. It was horrible trying to locate parts in 3-4 buildings, in the tractor graveyard, and in different tool boxes. And for the price, used Lista style cabinets will be used for consumables while color coded tool boxes used for different tooling. Red for SAE, blue for MM, natural gas is yellow, water a so blue, etc.

    i have had some success with lapping gas taps, start with fine valve grinding paste then tooth paste to finish. i have an old concrete mixer, welded 4 chain links to the outside of the barrel, tie the fuel tank on with a couple of rachet binders, a hand full of nuts and a cup of Diesel and let it rumble away. the beauty of the mixer is that you can change the angles so as to have the nut rub across all the surfaces

  • @rogerpavlis8184

  • @gatz271
    @gatz271 Год назад

    Good video, Jacob. Re the radiator alignment. It might be that the angle bracket is located correctly to the frame. but the holes that the radiator base mounts through are the ones that are off. If you take those bolts out, the radiator should be able to slide back on the right side (with the bolts on the left side loosened) and then after the holes have been correctly located, there will be clearance to re-install the upside-down bolts in front that have otherwise hit the frame. This incorrect location of the radiator would also explain the wear in the down-tube. With the radiator set in the right position, the down-tube could be straightened and clear the rearmost part of the angle bracket as original. gatz

      @JacobASwanson Год назад

      That sure is my 20-35 Glenn. You can't really tell, but it actually wasn't running super well, the governor and/or carb was acting up. Would not respond to throttle quadrant control changes immediately, or the governor would not respond when it should. It was acting like there was a sticky linkage somewhere, but I'm pretty confident there is not. I'm not sure why it is acting up either, the governor was all gone through when we rebuilt the tractor, as was the carb. I played with the carb butterfly spring at the show to no change. I'm thinking it is governor related, but not sure what could have gone wrong. Any ideas welcome.

    • @JacobASwanson
      @JacobASwanson Год назад

      Yes, for now it will be a "fix things as necessary" kind of tractor. Someday when I have time and have a few current projects done this Hart Parr will get a proper paint and full mechanical restoration, but for now we will just enjoy it! I personally stay away from oiling them down, that just makes it that much harder to clean up when it comes time for paint. Remember, cast and steel is porous, if you dump oil on it, you will need to clean it all back out before paint....

    • @daleedwards363
