Well they figured out where the leak was coming from the hydraulic system, yes, that is a piece of rubber house, J-B weld and a hose clamp that was used to try and stop the leak

getting a new hose made now, should be ready to rock and roll in a couple hours

well, seems a hose couldn't be made, the one shop only has rubber lines and it won't make that bend, so we called a local hydraulic shop and and they bend metal, but the guy who does it is on vacation, so my dad and @thenewsettler86 got some hi pressure jb weld that is rated for 4000 psi and and cleaned it up and coated the area, this is a low pressure line that isn't suppose to get over 500 psi so it should work, if not thenewsettler said he would just take it up to the garage and braze it

I did find these two online, they look close, I e-mailed the company asking for more info

was able to get out early last night so I could clean the house before my wife got home, had a few beers and decided to test out the machine, it's kind of dark, going out now to test some more, we have some more tweaking to do, thinking about just tearing the whole thing down this winter and rebuilding it, 2 more days
