That's so the green one can be plugged in no matter where in the shop it don't start. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A collector, Per the internet a collector is a person who collects things of a specified type, professionally or as a hobby. From the looks of that photo you have a long way to go to become a hoarder. However your wife knows you better than we do and there is probably another area that you haven't shared a photo of that would confirm her theory. I had always considered myself a collector but upon reading the definitions I now realize that I have been a hoarder all my life. 3 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rayshorses 102 #10 Posted January 22, 2021 Ha , thats not hoarding , you don't have enough yet. Every time i find a wheelhorse to bring home , i tell my wife that it is my duty to preserve these specimens to put in my museum . She even went on a 24 hour trip to pick up a 1973 10 hp 8 speed with me. After the fifth or sixth one , i didn't have to go on about how they dont make these anymore , they will get harder to find bla bla bla , you get the idea. My museum now consists of my shop and three sheds full of tractors and attachments . I think i have about 10 wheelhorses and a bunch of attachments. They are all my favorite years and models. I fear that once one collects enough of these , it becomes an addiction. Lately , i found five machines from the early 70's to bring home. They are not wheelhorses and i have no idea why i needed them , but i like them and they are in the "museum " now. Have i crossed into the twilight zone of tractor hoarding.... maybe. 6 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes sir 18x20x8' wall, should have went 28' long and had doors installed but budget limited that. Used the eMax for the excavation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rj35hunter 283 #17 Posted January 24, 2021 This is probably where you cross the line with hoarding....going up with metal racks to fit over 40 tractors where 20 use to sit....going up is the only way! LoL 4 1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rayshorses 102 #18 Posted January 24, 2021 I bought 17 sections of the same shelving last fall. It's still sitting outside because i have too much stuff in the area where they need to be assembled. I wish i knew how to keep my shop and storage barns as neat as yours , but the best i can do is make a somewhat organized mess. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
