NC south Dakota, blade is made by double B manufacturing out of benson, MN. Been a good blade, got it around 15 years ago. Had local machine shop replate the moldboard as it was wearing through, but it does have around 8000 miles of township road blading on it. We did bend up the blade the first year we had it. Had it hooked to a 4wd tractor rebuilding a section line and hooked a rock. After that we only use a 2wd tractor on it and have had no problems. We added an additional foot to each side, so moldboard is 16' instead of factory 14'. Best way to get rid of the washboard is blade in both sides after a 1/2 in of rain. You need to get some dirt mixed in with the gravel, but on dry years and a lot of light (mostly cars), fast speed traffic the washboard will be harder to fight. I have nothing against dodge pickups, but for some reason, I have noticed the roads where residents drive mainly dodge pickups the roads seem to more washboard prone, must be something with the suspension, just something I have noticed over the years. Also, I have noticed, every one has an opinion on how a road should be bladed, some like a crown, some like a flat road, some like a lot of gravel on the crown, some want it shaved smooth, ask 10 people how a road should be bladed and you will get 10 different answers, LOL. I try to keep a gentle crown and thin layer of loose gravel over the whole road, that's my opinion.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
