City has a JCB tractor that they use to spread salt. All that salt has eaten away at this battery box / oil tank and it started leaking. They asked if I could patch it up so they could get a few more years out of it.

Broken rear hitch on JD 9500 combine. This wasn't one of the best designs. A replacement was fashioned only made heavier and gusseted.

Older trailblazer with rusted out frame mounts for the 4 link bars on the rear suspension. Frame was rusted through on both sides of the vehicle ( It was actually far worse than the photos show). Customer wanted to have it rebuilt so he could get a couple more years out of it. Had to fabricate a completely new mounting system the worst part was it was all tucked in behind the body which made reaching everything a challenge.

Neighbor picked up a nice Bobcat mini articulated wheel loader. He dropped it off with a rather lengthy list of things he wanted done to it. One item on the list was a step, now how in the world could a step be fashioned on a machine that did this when it turned?

It's smiling at us. Customer said he was pushing out a row of shrubs. Had to reach over the first row to get to the second row that's why he didn't notice that he didn't have the bucket level. Decided to cut out the original 3/16 floor and replaced it with 1/4" plate. Installed a much heavier front cutting edge. Added 3/4" x 2 1/2" skids on the bottom of bucket. Straightened out the side plates and added 3/8" x 1 1/2" stiffeners on the leading edge. Shot it with a fresh coat of JD green. For less than the cost of a new bucket the old one was repaired and made stronger than what he could buy new. The next row of shrubs should beware because - He's back.

Customer has a Miller sprayer that keeps loosing phase on the rear steer. He asked if I could make some turnbuckles, seems he is going to get rid of the rear steering and make it solid. These turnbuckles replace the steering cylinders and prevent the wheels from pivoting.
