BCF Shop

Shop is fully installed. Now to clean and seal the concrete, get some insulation and interior walls and run some electrical. I also need an amazing amount of rock to go around it, but chipping away at everything a little each day.

Do plenty of research on the concrete sealer before you pull the trigger. I used spec chem cure and seal and buggered it up. My sprayer didnt atomize well enough and it was splotchy as all get out, like little puddles everywhere. I ran back over it with a roller to smooth it out but it came out orange peel texture instead of slick. It didnt seem to penetrate the dried concrete even though the label said it should. 1 drop of gas will eat it right off. My buddy used the same product on his shop floor and has had the same experience. He poured a second pad and applied it when the concrete was still green and it soaked it right up and looks great.
 
Im using this to seal with, from the research I've done it seems like it will be good and the industrial floor company that was at work recommended it for my application.

Picture from several weeks ago just parking a few things.
 
Two weeks ago I brought home my Great Grandpas Ferguson 30. My Dad had brought this home back when I was probably 5 or 6 and then it sat at my grandpa's for almost 35 years. The other day my Grandma asked about it and said she would kind of like to see her Dad's tractor run again. That was the first time she had ever said anything about it, so with her declining health I have made it a high priority to get it running and driving and go drive it around at her house so she can see it again.

It really isn't that hard to get these old tractors going. My son pulled his grandfathers Farmall out from behind his Aunt's house and had it running in a day. I think all he did was clean the points and a basic tune up.

Didn't say it was hard but, I did have to clean up the carb, after reassembly I sprayed it with a clearcoat and it looks pretty good. It had one valve in #3 that was stuck open but I was able to get it freed up, compression checked good on all 4 so I'm pretty happy with how its going so far.

Now if you have some rims and tires you'd like to donate I'll take em, I might even meet you halfway. 👍

No rims. Have a few tires laying around. Probably too far gone for what you want.
