Ah - the first machine seat I ever sat on was on a '46, maybe '47 Massey Ferguson gasjob, four-cylinder updraft L-head if I remember right, small- to mid-size, don't know the horses but my father used to comment on their small size and relative laziness, he very much preferred the four-legged kind. Reason I got sat on the seat and shown the levers was that all males over nine years pitched in with the haying, and the smallest one drove the tractor, partly because he couldn't pitch much hay, but also because he wasn't trusted with the sharp pointed pitchfork. Loose hay system, none of those fancy uptown balers in those days. So at ten you drove the tractor. The rules were simple - don't take it out of second gear, and don't screw up.

Iron goes on forever, but like you say, it's good 'to turn the rotating equipment' when you're leaving it sit #reply-4939916

Joy in coast logging is a good welder/bush mechanic. Betcha that's true in mining as well.

Good point about the Mongolian currency, it's not on this site

I don't even know what it's called. Maybe Dave will fill us in on that.
