I'm sure you are glad to see the boards, also looks like you have your fair share of moving snow as well,   david

Good job under some tough conditions.

I'll just bet that the wheels are turning in your mind on how to make that task a whole lot easier and quicker.  ;D ;D
Maybe another shed, or some lumber carts.   ;)

That is a TD18 running the mill, I might have to do an inframe on the old beast cause its burning a little oil. Its been sitting for over 20 years so Im gonna run it for a while and see if the rings will re seat them selves??? Im hopeing for the best. I priced out an inframe kit and it will run me about 3600 bucks. Does anybody know if I can get a cheaper kit anywhere???

Are you sure its a ring problem and not a valve guide seal problem

[stefan]

For some time now ive had this little idea that i been thinking about.
If you just leave the boards in i big pile and wait long enough, shouldnt they learn to get themselfs organized in a orderly fashion??? 

Thats a nice looking mill you got there Lyle!

[lyle niemi]

It could be, Im not really sure yet. I have a good friend comming up next month and he is a good mechanic, I will get him to have a look at things.

Nice Prime mover.  My beat is the rings, not good to let diesels sit for a long time.  Run the engine, log some hours and keep it hot, may re seat. Keep an eye on the oil level.

Lyle, $3600.00  will buy alot of oil,besides the old girl is old enough to smoke.I'd try running it for a wile, mayby the old bon-ami treatment would help. Frank C.
