B26 .... BINGO!!!

[AJRAPTOR]

Well not hard to tell we been putting our new b26 to work and so far so good this is one Very handy tractor i just wish the loader arms wre a bit stronger other then that very happy with the tractor

used the hoe to put this steel I-beam about 22' long in. Its 10' up at the top and is about 9' at the bottom of the beam

end of the beam

beam under the floor

started backfilling

I HATE LADDERS!!!!

the pit made from the fill we have been using and its gonna be getting alot bigger yet

the trail is done and tyhe deer and wildlife use it to come right into the garden

kubota next to its soon to be shared new home with the mustang

started putting some of the old busted cement retaing wall back to help hold back the backfill

The B26 is a great little machine. You can be surprised just how much it can do. Good pics!

Great pictures. I have a L4400 and Kubotas are tough machines, as are other makes. It looks like you are getting a lot of use out of it. Enjoy. Hopefully the garden was planted for the wildlife, and not for you own Family's use, because you won't have much left over to eat after the deer, rabbits, skunks, opossums, raccoons; etc. are finished. Enjoy your seat time and keep us informed of your progress. Well done.:tractor:

kyle241 your right it is one strong machine but the front loader i wish could lift a bit more like at least more then 9 bundles of shingles on a pallet. thought it was odd that i could put the loader at a set hight then put the bundles on and the loader would hold at that hight but not lift it any higher but it would lift it with the fork curl back. other then that everything is strong and powerful.

creekbend the garden was planted for us but we share it till the point we can get the old 22 out for a "test" shot to see how its sighted in :thumbsup:

Now that's the right attitude. Perhaps a night scope from Santa, in case you want to practice some night time target practice? A majority of those "critters" are more active during night time hours.:laughing::thumbsup: Of course the taking of wildlife is against the law during night time hours in some states. Not all wildlife, but some species. Perhaps "rubber bullets" for the other ones?

live in a subdivison lol shooting a gun is a no no with so many homes so close but we are a ways off the road with woods all around and no homes behind the house where the trail is and theres nothing that says I cant shoot the .177 air rifle that has 495fps stamped on it ......dont worry it wont hurt anything it only has a 1000fps spring and piston jamed in it and now makes more of a bang then the 22 does but then again the ramset uses a 22 shell so if anyone says anything were just doing some ramset work on the foundation of the new shop here :thumbsup:

also got 2 walls up on the 2nd floor today and starting work on the front wall and the rest of the roof tomorrow and then gotta change the stairs around some to meet clearence codes for the upstairs floor doorway gonna have to move it in 20 inches since the gov. wont let us go past 20 ft high at half way up the roof from the floor so we have to have 6ft wall rather then 8ft walls on the 2nd floor its a pain in the *** when you gotta work with moving 2x10 headers for the stairs

I also just got my B26 traded in a B20. I really like this machine. Real strong and it gets around the woods easily.

I don't understand the problem you are having with lifting. I had a huge oak stump in the bucked last weekend. The machine was just at the tipping point. But with 4 wheel drive no problem going slow. I should have taken a picture. The stump had two stems, was about 7 foot long and at least 150 years old. I had the place logged about 15 years ago so it popped right out of the ground but the wood was still solid.

Where are all the rocks yuns don't have any rocks!!! Now that would be the life.

It sure looks like you are getting the work done. Hopefully you will be able to finish as planned before winter weather arrives.Good Luck.

yeah its odd the bucket curl is unstopable but 12 bundles of shingles and i cant lift with the loader arms but i can curl back with about 40 bundles on a pallet.

lol the valley i live in is all sand for miles and miles only real rocks found here are the mtns. that are all around the valley the rest is all like red sand/ clay or a loose gravely sand with round rocks under 12" in size
