Went down to talk to him tonight about all this, might be a little while cause they put his mom in the hospital today and don't look lke she's gonna make it to long, but that won't keep him down long.

He's buildin the damndest contraption I ever seen. It's a planter for strawberries and asparrugus for a local orchard. You lay down on your belly with one person on each side of this thing about 6 inches off the ground. It's self propelled by a hydrostat mower engine with hand controls, is complete with blades up front that open the trench and blades in back to close it and feeds the plants down to you. The plant feeder is set to run off the motor speed so the faster you are driving the faster it feeds plants to you. With the exception of the motor and drive gears, this whole thing is built from scratch including the steel wheels that double as soil compactors as you go.

Just wish they made something in the 33-34 X 14.0 on a 17" wheel. Sure would be nice.

I think them 29.5/12 17's might be a little small on my 06!
