Ha ha, I also work in a lab and maintain equipment. We have and have had. XRF, XRD, Calorimeter, colorimeter, laser particle sizer, sulfur analyzer, gamma neutron activation on line analyzer, and at one time we had a fuels lab with an ICP and GCMS. And I almost forgot When I first came to work here in 1981 we had an old flame AA unit. ......... I have an AAS degree in electrical engineering, 48 yrs old, 7 way bypass surgery at 45, lol. Dwayne OK Dwayne that makes three and counting of us electronic dudes from (as Rob would say) another planet. I have a micrometer, does that count? Rob-Only if it's digital Larry

New members are joining quickly. I see some old names and some new ones. I can't wait to get some pictures and stuff. Unfortunately I'm stuck working 12 hrs 7 days the next 2 weeks.
It's dark when I leave and dark when I get home.
Winter Suks!!!

Yeah, I see that too. All you new guys, don't be bashful. Introduce yourselves and post something. Ask questions and get involved, etc. Make this a comfortable place where you can have fun and learn stuff too. Remember, every post you make could help somebody else. So don't sweat it and make yourself at home.
Loretta just got a new Jinma 284 and we don't know much about it. We will be learning a lot from your posts. Rob-

Hi Guys, I received a E-mail about China tractors and decided to see what it was about. I see many names that are familiar. I am from NY and purchased my Jinma 224 about 2003 I think. So I guess you can say I've been around a few years. I belong to the NY China board and also was frequent at TBN. I also am am member at Joe's site although I've been busy and haven't visited there in a couple of months. Any-hows, this site has a nice appeal and format. I will definitely be logging a few times a week and hope to contribute as much as I can but thats a tall order with masters like 3RRL and Larry. Those two are quite the masters of perfection, they amaze me. ;D Signing off and I'll be back! Regards, Harry G

Joe and Harry, I know you guys so welcome aboard. You'll find this board very entertaining indeed. It should really suit you Rocker since you are such a radical dude. hahaha. Thanks for the compliment Harry, but everybody's input here helps someone else. I'll be looking forward to reading posts from both you guys. Rob-

All "new" members welcome!, spread the word to all you know. If you have to, drag them in kicking and screaming. Once here, I think you and all you invite will be hooked. With this site we have escaped the chains of oppression and are now free to speak our minds.
Welcome HarryG ! - good to have you, hope all is well.
And Welcome JoeR ! - killed any Muslims lately? let me know if you need more ammo. I love your tantrums so start something in the "Back Shed" to educate us.
Larry

(we got a stoplight!!! ) ..well... ok.. we live "near" Metropolitan Clover. ..fine.. we live in "the sticks".. (according to my city-folk friends). Anyway... Got my little Kama imported from some far away country. ..Kentucky, I think. oh... and... it starts when it's cold... if you can pry ME out of the warm house.

Yessir... I have no doubts. I've actually never been to KY... but, from what I hear, it's my kinda place. Grew up in south western PA... mountainous area. Western MD, northern WV... all beautiful to me. One o' these days.. I'll make it up/over there... and I'm gonna take plenty o' pics when I do! Just thought it was funny that I waited 3 or 4 weeks for my Kama to take a slow boat from China... er... I mean, a slow trailer from Kentucky. LOL ;D

Hi Guys and Gal(s),
I was invited over to your new website and thought I would add my two cents. Sorry to hear of your fallout.
I am 37 and live just outside of Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. I am a Mechanical designer and work for a company that makes underwater acoustic equipment. I do electronics packaging design so I work with machined, sheet metal and injection molded parts and enjoy it for the most part.
I have a wife and three boys, 6yrs, 3yrs and 10 months.
I have a Jinma JM354 with FEL and BH and use it on my 1 acre (I know it is way over kill, but it is a fun toy, I mean tool) to do landscaping.
Some day I want to have my own business and get more land, preferably on the water, but that takes time and money, which I have neither.
I really enjoy listening to you guys and have learned alot so far. In the spring I have to do some major maintence on my tractor, it will be about 50 hours then and I will be sure to ask for help when I need it.
That's about it for know.
David

Hi David and welcome. I'm sure glad you decided to join. There were a bunch of guys I sent the invitation too, but not everybody because I couldn't. I hope they will get the link somehow. I'm confident you'll enjoy the relaxed atmosphere here without too much moderation here. You are free to express yourself and add as much as you like and of course, ask any questions you may have. Rob-
