    Knife & a Half

    Here you go: https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/end-section-pack-of-2 I don't have a way to rivet the third hole, so I left it empty ... which is exactly what the discussions I found the other day said to do. It works fine that way ... at least it's worked fine for the 2 - 3 hours...

    Knife & a Half

    I know that sickle mowers are largely out of favor these days, but my 9' NH451 is my favorite tractor implement. It's a huge time-saver when cutting around my 6 acre lake, which has steep banks in some parts, especially along the dam. I also use it to cut strips in the weeds/hay (that's...

    Tornado/Storm Shelter - Underground

    An underground shelter, whether concrete, wood, fiberglass, etc. just seems safer to me (but I'm sure the above-ground shelters are equally safe) ... plus there's the aesthetics factor. My house is on a conventional foundation, not a slab. Would a "closet shelter" be possible in the absence of...

    Tornado/Storm Shelter - Underground

    It seems that we are now in "tornado alley." Last month a series of tornadoes tore through our area, with massive destruction and loss of life. One came within a mile from our home. It's time for me to seriously consider constructing a shelter for people (and a few dogs). Probably around 100...

    Vasey Grass!

    My place has been invaded by vasey grass. Two years ago it was limited to an area of roughly 1/4 acre; but this year it expanded to roughly 15 acres, with small clumps of it scattered across nearly all of my 86 acres ... I have no doubt the small clumps are the beginnings of large patches...

    New Holland TC35-Glow Plug Light

    I've ordered the "el-cheapo" relay... I'm crossing my fingers that it will fix the problem. Thanks for the help!

    New Holland TC35-Glow Plug Light

    Last week my TC35 wouldn't start, so I thought I'd check the battery connections first. When taking off the first side, my wrench slipped and hit both terminals ... small spark ... I cleaned the connections and tightened them. I went to try to start it and got nothing ... dead as dead can be...

    34 Acres and 1/4 mile gravel driveway

    I have about 80 acres and a 1/4 mile+ driveway; the land is mostly pasture with a few groves of pine trees around the edges; also have a 5 acre lake. I bought a used New Holland 35 hp 4-wheel drive, with a front end loader ... the FEL is a must-have for me. I also have a 6' brush-hog, 9' sickle...

    never liked the ROPS now i have a reason

    I understand the PITA that the RPOS can be ... I've been subjected to a couple beatings by limbs knocked off by the RPOS on my compact tractor (I simply misjudged the height of the branches) and had the RPOS on my ZTR knock apples off my orchard. Nonetheless, except when I have to mow very...

    chevy half ton tranny trouble

    The OP's situation sounds a bit familiar .... Last month, I was 250 miles from home, cruising with my bride and three retrievers when the transmission in my 2017 GMC Sierra went bad (fortunately, I was able to limp into the nearest town) ... the truck has only 82,000 miles on it, nearly all...
