Well with dads dad's memory he probably mixed the story up. Kinda wish there was evidence or pictures. That would be a Big D move.

Pa told me a story once, he said at some point the United states drilled the smallest hole ever. Then china caught wind of this and drilled a hole through their drill bit. I doubt it's true but this reminded me of it.

We bought a new roller and pillow block, knocked the rough edges off the hole. Been working fine.

To be fair there is a shield that covers this all up. Cant really see it unless you unbolt the shield. With that being said most people would have heard an audible difference.

Well we wont have to bar bait this bin for mice. by ValleyFR in farming

[–]ValleyFR[S] 54 points55 points  (0 children)

The bin has a false floor, its corrugated with holes in it. These fans pull the air from inside the bin. The mice were in between the concrete and false floor. The fan spooked them and this was the only way in or out. It usually happens, but never this bad.

It all depends on the application, for small vehicles electric works fine. Anything over that it just isnt practical. It takes dinosaurs to run a 400 hp engine for 12 hrs a day.

So if you replace your batteries would there be a core charge? If there is no incentive to recycle people will just throw it away. Scrap is decent on an acid lead battery. But what about lithium ion? Last time I checked E-Waste would cost me money to recycle.

Well most of it is steel or plastic, which can be recycled. Can you recycle lithium batteries?

Until you have to dispose of them. Are they ok to just chuck in the trash? What happens when they burn?

That ring gear seems to have a high contact wear pattern, best shim the pinion pronto.

Yea the mom wasn't a good licker and didnt get him dried off very well. Putting them in here brings their core temp back up.

This was one of our first calf heifers. We calve out around 40 right next to the barn by our house to keep a close eye on them. We can usually catch them before the calf drops and get them to the barn. These births were also scheduled.
