1. cut pine trees out of frame

4. braze up many, many, rust holes in hyd. pipesointhead
5. drain, flush, refill all fluid compartments
6. repack cylinders
7. make bushings for "rowing motor" type circle turn
8. work blade back and forth with trackhoe:beatsme
9. make temporary fuel tank but forget to hookup return line to new tank
10. run grader into ditch in front of shop and realize when non-functional tank overflows why 4-71 is using 50 gallons an hour in shop:idea
11. grease 116 fittings
