It’s not really a hobby and I’m probably an oddity here, but, I’ve been getting all of the equipment ready to go on the farm. I’m luckily (well..I think luckily) still employed as a aeromedical helicopter mechanic, so I do go the the base still for an hour or to to check out the helicopter and I’m free for the rest of the day.
Being at home more has given me a lot more time the fix leaking air conditioning systems, replacing planter bearings, nagging front hub leak on the 4 wheel drive tractor, a 4955, replaced two drive tires on a 4440 and unfortunately currently I’m on Deere service advisor looking up parts since I just found a turbo seal going out on The 4755. Troubleshot and fixed the harness on the planter. Ugh. This spare time is costing me a lot! At least everything will be ready to go to plant, and hopefully there won’t be as many break downs this year.
I’m starting to think I’m busier than usual since I wrote of that out!
