      Making those bad decisions on equipment also teaches you what to look for most when buying used equipment in the future. You see it with Andrew, still buying used equipment, but having many fewer issues. Sure, he's spending a lot more, but he's also learned a lot about what to look for in the future and consistently made better purchases.

    If the new owner has the right mindset and credit limit, the potential for that 1010 is limitless. It could turn out to be a Guinness record holder for the 1010 with the most new parts.

Mine turns on a dime and can sit for over a year and they work just the same. There are a couple tricks to keeping the compartment dry. One big one is to silicone the fender brackets along with any other connection in the system. Another is to attach desiccant bags to the under side of the adjustment covers.

    Andrew, where have you been? We've been worried. You haven't posted anything for a while. Glad you're back. Missed you.

      Editing sucks.

      Andrew, can’t you hire a butler/ chauffeur and get him or her to do the editing while you are having your cup of tea?
      Have you got a log burner or a large open fireplace that would take a five foot log in your castle yet?
      Re the job of editing, You may recall the words of Harry Lauder (later Sir Harry) when he sang the song “Keep right on to the end of the road” back in the day.
      Incidentally,I don’t like weeding the garden, mowing the lawns or trimming the hedges but I grit my teeth and get on with it and I’m heading towards eighty.
      All the best from sunny England and I’m sure that there are very many people around the world who appreciate the films that you make to entertain them and make them smile. I would award you the CDM that’s for sure.

    My dad owns a John Deere 1010 and it did good for abit then the left steering clutch started slipping like what was happening with you but it’s the diesel model so it’s a lot smoother when running but we decided where gonna fix it next year so it will be fun.

    this being fathers day brings back memories of working for my dad back in the day, he was a construction super and when he was around equipment that spent more time spinning than moving he would always say " that damn thing doesn't the power to pull a sick a whore off a piss pot" he never said it around home, he had lots of phrases he used on the job that never made it home, glad I was around to hear all the funny sayings Pop !!!
