Sorry for the long post, but I wanted to be as thorough as possible. (Summary of work at bottom if you want to skip.) I'm at a loss and could use a little help here; I have a nice CC I bought back in 2015 and it ran like a champ. It has electric PTO (the wife insisted) and the Kohler KT735 24hp...

Pictures of the offending tree.. I might see if I can rent a larger backhoe - or maybe see if one of my neighbors will let me borrow theirs for an afternoon. As for the pool, I'm going to put down a heavy base of sand over the top anyway - I've had above-ground pools before and never had...

I've got an ash tree about 2'-3' in diameter at the base; it's rotten and needs to go. I've taken my little Kubota BX25 and yanked smaller trees out, but nothing this big. I bought a ripper tooth from Bro-Tek which is on the backhoe now, and it seems to work well. However, this is a pretty big...

I'm on a well (obviously) and have a well tank with an air volume control valve - my system is working for the moment but various conditions have led the tank to tilt a bit, with it worsening slowly over time. I want to catch this before it gets ugly. As the title mentions - I'd like to use a...

Not sure where to put this - looked through the other forums and it really doesn't quite fit. I've got a 5' (60") King Kutter side-discharge finish mower that I run off my Kubota BX25. It bogs down a little in the heavy grass but I just go real slow. I'm cutting about ~4 acres roughly (the wife...

For those of you interested in the history, here's a pic of the land plots; you can see where the railroad used to go through (no longer there either, but evidence of it is strewn around other properties in the county as well as the neighboring county) and how there was a small "downtown" area...

My wife and I moved out "to the country" to get away from the craziness of the metropolitan area (neither one of us likes the city) and love it. That being said, the wife had big plans for our little 6 acres - milking goats, chickens for eggs, and a large garden. Already has a nice little 1/4...

Here's mine, 50 & 100 yards. The land slopes down in the middle where the 50 yard line is and works its way back up at the 100 yard line (and keeps going up.) Took an old picnic table that was poorly made and re-assembled it as a shooting bench with a swivel seat on it. Bought a waterproof tub...

I was reading through the thread about Australian gun confiscation and wondered; Do they have as many crazy people as we do? From my understanding, the US doesn't have mental institutions like we used to. Apparently some time in the early 90's they began to phase them out? Obviously it's two...

I'm putting together a 55 gallon setup for diesel but I'd also like to store gasoline, potentially more than just 55 gallons (more like 2 or 3 barrels) for use in vehicles as well as equipment around the property here. The thing I keep seeing in all the posts is that gasoline becomes very...

Not a snow blower - I'm so far south that we almost never see snow. (Once in ten years is a LOT.) I'm thinking more along the lines of a giant leaf blower under the belly. I've got a metric buttload of acorns from all my oaks this year and a little handheld won't cut it. That and the leaves...

Yep, had my BX25 now for a little over 6 months and love it. Sank it twice in the mud (that was fun) and done TONS with it. This Saturday I ran over a small section of my property that had some down tree limbs and wouldn't you know it - one found it right up in the nice guide (they call it a...
