Finished the tractor split this morning. Roll pin punches are awesome.

My hat is off to you, Dave. I'd never try that job myself.

I've done a bunch on the farm over the years. It's pretty simple, remove anything that doesn't look like a tractor split in two. Replace clutch. Reassemble. Throw any spare parts behind the barn when nobody is looking.

this is the way!

even worse when I remember taking a part off but not where it goes back on, then realize after reassembly that I gotta pull everything apart again
cleaned the carb on my mower, re install it and notice the throttle is super stuck, I forgot the gasket between the head and the carb, doh

We finished it and I’m still alive! Thankfully day 2 was crane work. Had the young guy do the climbing portion and I did the rest with the bucket. Interesting tree, probably less than 100 years old, 1/2”-3/4” rings. The cavity went all the way to the ground but was filled to half way with debris. Last piece was 11,000lbs, I thought I would be heavier.

That's the real deal.

Great job on a big one, Jaime. I'd be happy to see the hind end of that one .
