Somebody posted about open source tractor, but deleted the post before I managed to reply, so here we go: Growing up in communist country it was really hard to buy tractor for your personal use as private enterprise ls was prohibited and all land was confiscated except of 1000m2 for personal use. Owning tractors even for land this large (and to share with family and friends) was still something desirable so people come with their own designs build on top of ready-made or repurposed materials. I can still see those machines from 70s or even 50s still working as there is nothing in them to break down. I personally own 30 years old tractor which first life was spent on rice field of Japan. Again very simple build and outside of structural damage there is almost nothing that can fail. I am sure it will live for another 40 or 50 years without much problems.
