Getting new tires on the Bourgault drill!
Рет қаралды 90,199
3 жыл бұрын** Huge Thanks to John at Fountain Tire in Moosejaw, SK for not sleeping to keep us going when it really counted up north! That guy is part machine and knows how small the window is that farmers have to work in 🙂
** Getting new front tires this time as the others are separated from the heat of the move... Tho, they don't owe us anything as they are 5 - 6yrs old and have thousands of miles on them.
