Popular Post timendres Posted December 24, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 24, 2023 When I was young, back in the 1960's. I remember so many accidents. Kids losing arms and fingers. Kids losing their lives. It was very common. Farm equipment is very powerful. Deceptively powerful in ways. Never to be treated with anything less than utter respect. My sincere sympathies to his family. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
