The tractor is split

Well, normally the two separate halves you see there are hooked together. Right now they are precariously balanced on jacks as I work on that clutch you see on the left side. The entire tractor went down because of this bolt.



A little bolt about 2" long shut down my entire tractor. Well, it gave me an excuse to fire up the machine shop and make a bolt. That was the fun part, now I've installed it and am putting it back together. I need to figure out how to adjust it before I put the tractor back together.

The other good thing it gave me was an excellent sermon illustration! Sometimes we can shut down our own lives with some little tiny thing that we allow to happen to us...that's a great picture.
