You went with something close to what I have at home, a 25Kv 3 point generator with a Lincoln buzz box I mounted on it. I own a tool and die business so my Miller Dial an Arc TIG welder does most of what I need done if I can get it to work easy, but the easy ones never seem to happen to me.

Being able to take the welder anywhere my tractor can get to is so handy though I recommend it to anyone thinking of a home welder setup. Initial cost is more of course, but being able to run the house in a pinch when you lose power is worth the added peace of mind as well.

Ken, I just wanted to thank you for this post you made a long, long time ago. I needed to replace my turf rims on my 970 and JD doesn't stock any of them anymore. Your information proved extremely helpful as I just ordered a new set of R1's and took your advice on the tire size. My MFWD disengages and engages effortlessly compared to my old turf tires, and aside from having to make my own rims for the front bolt pattern on the 7x16 the 14.9x24 advice along with the 1.691 ratio post worked beautifuly for me, thank you for this info!!
