    I'm a combat veteran at the local Golden Chow Hall. I've got the fork tine scars on top of my hands to prove it.
    I've survived many a battle over the last pork chop.

    Sometimes I like to grill on a chain-link fence too. Little extra panache.... a touch of the ole razzle-dazzle. :D

    Same here. I think that’s the main reason I like the look, just cuz I know I couldn’t run em if I wanted to.

    I’d have thought it woulda been a little higher, but then again I only saw the one pic.

    I love the looks of them old R models, but I don’t have any desire to run one every day. Think I’ve still got the scar from 20 years ago from that button on top of my ball cap.

    You are correct @Oxbow. NH3 is most commonly used around here for a source of nitrogen fertilizer. Anhydrous ammonia turns into a gas once it contacts the soil and is 82% nitrogen by weight. It is injected into the ground with tillage equipment using knives.

    The air seeders we use to plant with can put NH3 down so we're able to get everything done in one pass. The NH3 is offset from the seed tubes so you don't get seed burn while applying it.

    The NH3 is filled into nurse tanks and that is what we pull behind the implements. When they get empty we pull them to a fertilizer supplier that fills them.

    Anhydrous ammonia is very dangerous to handle. It seeks out moisture and can burn you very easily and can destroy or freeze skin tissue. We always wear a respirator and gloves while handling it. Another important factor is be sure you know what direction the wind is out of if you ever have any issues.

    Fun fact: this is why cold warehouses have a windsock on the roof. They use the product for refrigeration. If it gets loose, you want to be upwind.
