Can I ask what company you used? Were you happy with the final product? Any issues? Would you do anything different? Also how long after deciding what home you wanted to move in date? Thinking about going modular too.

We used royal homes out of Summerville sc, the brand of the home itself is r-nell. Overall happy with the home. We did have an issue with the flooring in one of the rooms, and a few of the breakers were bad and kept tripping randomly, but nothing major. And from the time we decided and ordered it to ready to move in was around 7 months, but I did already have the site work and access road ready ahead of time

Where the two halves meet it’s not insulated, but it is sealed off with plywood on both halves. The walls on the inside of the house where the two halves meet are double walls with plywood between them

Mine looked better and ran before my dad and i restored it. 3000 hours of use later after restoration i can say the 340 utility is one of the nicest tractors ever made. Mine is a '62. With purchase price, rebuild kit, paint and miscellaneous odds and ends have about $6000. Worth every penny and busted knuckle!

Sorry you feel that way. It was a win win situation. She was happy just to get it out her yard and wasn’t expecting anything, I’m happy that I got a cool old machine that I have no intention of parting out or reselling, and most people here seem to be happy that a piece of equipment is saved from being scrapped. The only people that seem to not be happy is you, and probably the junkyard guy that lost out on some money.

Probably just as well the crank was shot because, had you managed to get it started with all that RTV in there, it would only have been a short while before it clogged all the oil galleries and the engine would've either siezed or threw a conrod throgh the block.

Glad to see you rescuing this thing. We owned a couple of MTs when I was a kid. They were the tricycle version of the M (standard front axle) and MC (crawler version), all of which were predecessors of the 420. One of our MTs ended up in the hands of someone who knew too little about tractors and did a lot of evil to it, including letting it freeze, which cracked the block. Once John Deere moved to the 30 series numbering, there was also a probably quite rare diesel version, numbered 435. Anyhow, all of them were really good little machines for their tiny size. As a kid, I watched as an MC was left to rot down in the front yard of one of our neighbors. I assume it went for scrap.

We work with what we have to do what we love. Can't get better than that. Started my bandsaw mill project a few years back. Was originally going to go with fixed saw gantry and log trolley myself. May yet, I keep thinking about powering saw with tractor PTO. Being where I am in the process, can still go either way. May be a good thing these old bones move slow. Fun project. Like you, I expect to realise the fuller joy of cutting wood with something I built with my own hands.

Impressive your able to cut that live oak w/ a smaller gas motor, like the design on that band mill too. A 7 degree munksfur saga blade at 2in 0.055 is the best blade I've found for cutting monster live oak. Kennesaw saw is the best blade maker I've found band blades as well. Best regards
