  • Not your typical cast iron square. Windy Hill foundry sent me this square casting and I warned them I was going to do something special with it. Enjoy. Be sure to check out my EPIC EGRESS storefront tee shirt. Your chance to participate in the upcoming shop move and help the channel a bit. www.storefrontier.com/product...
    If you want to make your own square from a casting. Tell Clark I said hello.

    I like that Ox Tool shorts are 8 min, not 30 sec like everyone else's ; )

      Hey Clark. Glad you liked it. That is some fine grade cast iron you do. The casting was superb.

    If you ever pass through Mississippi to visit Windy Hill, stop by my shop, I’m only 35 miles away! Many talk smack about Mississippi, but it’s quite a beautiful state, the best kept secret in the country. The nicest, smartest, most hospitable folks you will ever meet, and we are tough as nails.

    Awesome! Best of luck on your move to the new shop. Being on your own land like that is a great feeling. I commented this on a previous video, but REALLY get a tractor or a skidsteer. They make property maintenance SO much easier. You wouldn't need a big tractor, a compact (not sub-compact) would be PLENTY for most stuff.

    • @jameslmorehead
      @jameslmorehead 2 роки тому +1

      Something along the lines of a Kubota L40 series would do him justice. Don't be brand specific. Just find the easiest dealership to get to and find a model that fits your needs. A good relationship with a great dealer is more important than brand loyalty.

    • @52Ford
      @52Ford 2 роки тому +1

      @@jameslmorehead Right. If going for a newer machine, definitely pay attention to what your local dealers are like. If it's something older, just focus on parts availability and easy of maintenance.
      amenities that the new stuff has, but it's simple and generally very reliable. My experience with new equipment is that most of your problems are going to be emissions or otherwise electrical related and if they aren't, it's something needs to be replaced, not just repaired.

    Hi Tom,
    The one that is surviving is not alive. he sees the universe as hostile.
    Unaware of being the universe, he lives in the small world of his personality.
    An open mind has given way to gullibility.
    Again and again he bumps his head against reality.
    For the universe wants to awaken him.
    Greatings, Jaap.
