Tractor Umbrella Canopy Sunshade Question
I have not seen that one but have been looking into them for a while,I think I am going to get the Westendorf Cool Cap.
They have an easy on and off bracket(no tools) I think would come in handy trailering or going into the woods or low branches.
The company responded very quickly with a nice color brochure of the cap and several of their products. It
appears to be an American manuf. in Iowa, "A family owned business since 1934,with a focus on quality".
Anybody had any experience with them?
Now that might be an Idea, Can we come up with some American company's that manuf. a quality product right here in the ol'USA? One comes to mind,Vermeer of Iowa Not sure
of the history but they make a high quality product. Iowa
crafsmanship is top notch I guess.

Any other Iowa companies that deserve a mention? I'm trying to get a positive thing going here instead of all this negative
talk about where we are headed.(me included)

I just think those are the best stories. It takes real brass kahuna's to do what some of these guy's have acomplished.
Just thought a few positive stories would be nice to read.
I know there must be a million out there. Maybe even inspire
someone?
I have owned a Veermer Stump Cutter for some time, Just bought another last year. Has proven to be a well built
machine. I believe Veermer invented it back in the 50's?
Why can some company's stay and produce top quality products
and other's can't?

Your cheating yourself if you don't take that ride to come
look at the leaves,sit on the docks in a small maine village and eat some fresh lobster,life is short.
Anyone who has accomplished what you have should be able to
arrange a little escape? A man who runs a 650 ac. farm,built a furniture business,should be able to take his wife to look at some leaves. Just kidding(Maine smartass humor).
As far as business here in Maine, on a local lavel one that
comes to mind is a Lumber Yard.
This man built it from scratch buy himself with a homemade
sawmill and a homemade forktruck.
His son runs it with his son and have turned it into a business of five lumberyards statewide with the mill here in Belgrade. They employ 250 people and growing.
There are many other notables and I will work on it. There is the Cianbro Corp. One of the largest heavy constuction firms on the eastcoast. I believe that was started by two brothers in Pittsfield Maine. I will work on some others.
What kind of furniture do you make? There are many master
craftsman here in Maine that work with wood. From furniture
to the boatyards on the coast. That alone is worth the trip
if you like fine woodworking.
Check out the Maine office of tourism web page or Maine .gov
I will try to post our towns web page. Does your area do the same?

More ship info. on Bath Iron Works.
Anybody else have any good ones.
I know it's not tractors, but maybe the doom
and gloom isn't as bad as we think.
