Good for you! You give me the inspiration to do the same thing with some of these hitches I got laying around wasting space! Think I'll get the torch fired up tonight!

Good judgment comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgment.
From listening comes wisdom and from speaking comes repentance.
Wise men learn more from fools than fools from the wise.

Are you looking for a sickle mower for a B? I took one off of my B a number of years ago, and it is starting to look like I won't be needing it. I am in central IA. This is the only photo I have, it sure looks cold in the picture. Yuck.

Yeah I've been kicking it around. Unfortunately, IA. is quite a bit of real estate away. Was hoping to find something a bit closer. Not in any hurry...

Agreed-distance is a problem. I doubt it will be going anywhere, so who knows? Something might work out.

Hey Steve, I have a B/C sickle bar mower that I'll sell cheap... I don't want to see it go for scrap. It's complete just came off a parts tractor, needs a few gaurds and blades, even have the pto pulley. $100.00? It can stay here a bit too! Tim in NY

Steve, can you send me an email your message box is full, and I can't get the link to your email to work either and I want to send you pictures of the sickle bar mower.
Thanks,
Tim
