Ah, the great thing about the south. I have NEVER seen a deck with a rust hole!!
I see northerners welding up holes all the time.
I thought that deck looked very "usable" when we were loading it.
My brother-in-law showed me how to grease ANY type bearing when I worked there.
We drilled metal seal bearings, had a hypodermic needle that went on a grease gun for rubber seals.
Clean them, pack them, and run them!!
