If there is a member in great standing here who we can trust we should loan implements.
You want to borrow my Box Blade? Give me $500 down, borrow it, return it undamaged, I give you $500 back you give me ?
You need a 3pt tow hitch? Borrow mine.
I've a trailer I'm not using.
I've loaned things to neighbors and they have thoroughly messed things up so I'm aware of the danger in loaning tools.
Now if you want to borrow my spouse or tractor that's a DIFFERENT thing. |
There should be a forum for selling items that people don't want |

I think if they "the mods" put a for sale forum a lot of things could get sold.

Isn't there already a classified ad section here ? On the tab at the top of the page = "CLASSIFIEDS"? I've never used it, but it seems to have stuff listed in it, and even a "Wanted" section - - - Sell Your Item Post Your FREE Ad!
If you have tractor, attachment, or piece of equipment you would like to sell, we welcome you to post a FREE classified ad. You may also add photos, bold listings, and higher exposure options to your ad during the submission process. Click here to post an ad!

Once again the "group think" has taken an idea, changed it and run it to ground.
I'm not talking about SELLING things, I'm talking about LOANING tractor attachments.
So now I've got a 4' box blade and a FarmForce Trailer Mover I'm willing to loan.
