   Been away for a few days at Carol's sisters. Her sisters family are dairy farmers and the farm is in South West Wales, Pembrokeshire. 

 

  Her B-I-L and his eldest son are really into vintage tractors, though Dad can't do to much now due to a heart condition. So the inevitable happened. The first day there found me assisting on an old International B something. Just as well I'd taken my overalls down with me. The'y been struggling to get the gearbox cover back on. Wouldn't sit down. I realised the selector forks were not going into the gear cluster properly. Bit of measuring and we eventually got it together and working. P1030685.JPG.b050170010a2f85701e98681a384ed39.JPG

 

 Next day was to investigate why the clutch wouldn't work. So the tractor was split.

 Parts are now needed.

 

So back to the holiday. Some sight seeing and a few photo's.

Beautiful countryside and people.    I spent some time working at the Ffestiniog Hydro power plant in Wales.    Thanks for triggering the memories.

Realized I’m 12 pages behind in “what did you do today”... and had the girls help me free a stupid chicken from a trap I apparently set.  Rylee swears this one is the dumbest chicken we have.  Jada and I concur that every chicken we have is the dumbest chicken we have.

 

This fencing is left overs from the gate job I did a while back.  We carefully unwound the round in a vhs tape fashion and cut off usable pieces for safe (larger rolled) keeping until we got to the damaged inside part and cut her free.  
 

Another funny thing.  vhs is flagged as not part of our vocabulary!  For a younger guy, that really dates me!  :ROTF:

Starting to think wheel horse and Harley Davidsons may have been build by the same people cuz all of my horses need a oil drip pan 🤔 at least I never forget where I put them in the shop.

No both of them are leaking from the oil drain cap. Just a drop or 2 on hot days but when they sit u can tell. Only tranny leaking is the 314. That seal is penciled in on the to do list haha.

Tinkered a little with Dugs relief valve. Pulled the spring and  plunger and gave em a wipedown and replaced. Seemed like everything was "stiffer" afterwards. Had the bucket raised about waist high and was lifting myself on it to get a feel of  the cylinder pressure and to see if there was any leak by.
