[QUOTE="backhoeboogie, post: 484673, member: 3162"] :lol: , That's what I am thinking too. let me add on to your list. Front boom/gin pole in the loader works like a crane. 3 point boom for the back of the tractor. Turn table to spin 2 ton limestone slabs going into the rock splitter to make them into bricks. A rock splitter/breaker. Pens, corals, chutes gates. Truck axle converted to a mower (haven't used it in years). Feral hog traps, hog pens. Rakes (many). Several log splitters but I buy cylinders and valves. Bought hydraulics for the rock cutter as well. Trailer modifications are a given. Take old axles and build hay buggies. Irrigation throw aways are great to build T's and 90's out of. Basically, if you see something you like, go home and "reverse engineer" it. Build it better and stronger. There is no such thing as junk or scrap iron. If it is metal, I can use it for something :lol: I'll take all that old aluminum irrigation pipe and build fittings out of it (T's-Crosses etc). Those old trampoline frames make great hay cradles. Flaboy, I have never built a 3 point sprayer. I should have but bought a sprayer instead - and it didn't turn out worth a darn. Store bought is always junk :lol: [/QUOTE]
