That was ... Interesting

Machinery breaks, right. Well. when I break it I do a good job of it.
I was turning the end west of the barn when all the sudden the right
side made a noise and lurched. See the attached photos for the end result. Seems the axle extension broke. (that is a factory part that came with the combine when new. It isn't some shade tree stuf that was added, it is OEM)

Oh, did I mention it was about 4:30 ? And that there are no 6" axle
extensions anyplace in the country? If I understood Stan correctly they
are on national back order.

I think I'll try and go to bed and sleep now. Yaaa, right.
