Farm Mechanics From Tank Or Truck to Tractor to the Disabled Soldiers, Sailors, and Marines, to Aid the in Choosing a Vocation (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Farm Mechanics: From Tank or Truck to Tractor to the Disabled Soldiers, Sailors, and Marines, to Aid the in Choosing a Vocation <p>Fig. L3. - This cut shows a shop which one farmer fixed up for his own use. The gasolene engine is used to drive aline shaft. By this means a power-driven emery wheel is available for grinding tools. This is of great help where chilled plows are used. The forge is one of the most important features of the equipment. The arrangement will depend on the work to be done. An important point that must not be overlooked is floor space for working on a machine and a large door that will admit an auto or a gang plow or other large machines. The mechanic will usually find helpers on the farm who with a little training will be able to render valuable assistance. <p>About the Publisher <p>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
