About me

I grew up on a farm with a red tractor older than I was, and I learned to hold a wrench before I learned to drive. When my father stopped using it I took it into the barn and promised to get it running, and I kept that promise two winters later.

Since then I have restored seven tractors, mostly slowly and on weekends. I am not a mechanic by trade. I take a lot of photographs, I write down every bolt, and I film the whole job, including the times when it does not go well.

Each Thursday there is a new video: an engine, a record, a first start or a morning in the barn. The guides and courses are what I would have wanted to read before I took the first bolt out.
