Well in the 6 months since I graduated with my AA degree in Diesel Technology (the only person in my class on the president's list I must add with above a 3.8 GPA for the full 2 years) I have been very busy. I got a killer job at a local organic dairy farm as the farms mechanic I also drive milk truck for them 1 day a week to Seattle and back. My responsibilities are basically make sure nothing breaks. We have 3 milk truck's ( Freightliner and Kenworth) , 2 newer silage dump trucks both International, 26 assorted John deere tractors every size you can think of, a couple Kubota , Case, International, Ford tractors and a ton of implements. Implements like spreaders, rakes, discs, tillers ect. I am being taught very well by a 74 yr old man ( probably the hardest working man I've ever met in my life) named Lance. He has been building and working on farm equipment for 40 years so I know I'm in good hands. I've been getting ready for spring planting season so the farm is busy with work repairing all the broken tractors. In the last month I've rebuilt engines and clutches split while tractors in half to get to the quad gears in the manuals and the power shift trannys in the 8 speed automatics. I've done almost every aspect of building these tractors. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.. I'll keep up on this blog more often .I hope my teacher Jeff Curtis is proud of what he taught me.
Jeff Curtis is proud that you have learned how to learn. (-;
