Thanks piller and Gunny, i think what we have will be enough for the big stove just have to split that last pile.
There`s a pretty big slab pile at the sawmill i think we`ll saw that up for the shop and maybe fall a few more dry trees after the leaves fall.

Wow! that 60 brings back memories for me. I helped a farmer when i was younger He had two of then 60's and also a 70 and a 420 his were tricycyle front ends and his bucket mounted on the rear axle. they are hard to start if they have been sitting for a while. You have that problem with yours? On his one tractor he had to hold the gas line solenoid on top of gas bowl filter with a piece of tobacco stick to bold it open or it wouldnt open to let fuel in or out when you cranked it over. he used a cut off piece of driveshaft welded to a mounting plate for a exhaust pipe. no muffler. Yep them horizontal John's had there own sound. you don't hear them too much anymore, except at tractor pulls.
