          | Great documentation on the WF engine work and all that Tom does! What a nice asset for the Allis community! I just followed the 200 plus mile tractor ride pictures. I imagine there were some sore butts after that trip! Regards,
 Chris

          | I put a shortcut on my desktop to that page. Nice to go there when you get a little bogged down and need a little inspiration. Between getting the tractors, fixing the tractors, and documenting all of it, when did he do anything else?

          | I still think we need to put ALL his pages onto this server.  If what happened to him in the past happens again, we stand to lose it all.  TOO much knowledge to not protect it!  I assume our servers are backed up?

          | A wealth of information is correct and if you look at the 1936 instruction manual it shows a simple detail that started at tractor number 24 which is in 1933. There have been claims that the waukesha engine ended at # 25 or all 28 but a small detail like an oil filter gives that away. The waukesha engine on the wc didn't have an oil filter at least external. So that kinda goes without saying there were only 23 waukesha wc tractors. |
