    Small boat question

    Hello All - I'm not sure if asking for boat advice on a tractor forum is OK but what the heck. I an not much of an outdoorsman so I am not up on boats and such. My father used to take us out on a lake fishing when I was a kid. I enjoyed it (although I can't stand fishing - I guess I am too...

    Me installing fencing...scary!

    Hello all - Now that I have my flats under control my wife and I are considering starting a new project. I just got a quote for a wooden fence (split rail - 1700') for my pasture and paddock. I want to replace the electric fence that is there - posts are rotten. The quote is at least 3 times...

    Flat tire

    It is so depressing to see my sick friend.. so tired and low. First flat tire... I haven't fixed it yet, just backed the CUT into the garage. My 2910 has a twig (1/8") in it's front tire. Is it hard to fix these things? I guess I should have mowed more than once last year.... Paul

    Windmills

    My wife likes the "look" of windmills and mentioned that one would look good on our farmette. I don't thinkwe would want one to power a generator but just for its appearance. Does anyone have any experience with windmills? Do they sell new ones. I found only one company that advertised on...

    PTO accident

    My new porch clear finish?

    Hi Guys - The decking is finally going on today... We have had a number of setbacks but things are really shaping up. I was wondering if anyone knew of a clear finish that could withstand the nasty UV that the sun delivers. We had a mahogoney door in our last house and even though it was...

    Porch/Deck Help

    Hi everyone - We are in the middle of putting a 42' x 10' covered porch on the back side of our home. The contracter that is doing it seems to know what he is doing (I ask a ton of questions). The one potential problem I see is that the floor joists are 16" on center. We are putting...

    A really long vacation....

    And so I am turning 40 this year (yeah yeah lordy lordy..) Weeeee. My kids are now old enough to take a rather major vacation so I thought I'd see the country. I live in NJ and have been to California but haven't been to most of the states in between. My thought is to take 2 months next...

    I\'m so lucky....post hole digger Despite me occupying the remainder of any storage space that we had in our garage after buying my CUT, my wife still supports me on my tractor purchasing decision. In fact, today she called me at work and wanted to know what a post hole digger would cost (I...

    Its time.....I guess for a horse

    OK so I have been promising my oldest daughter a horse for some time now. My wife and I have been discussing it and have decided to start looking around this year. Now we have a "horse property" but not alot of experience with horses (e.g. I know that they have 4 legs and need to be fed, but...

    Tractor has a boo boo

    I wouldn't really call it a boo boo. Just the normal chips and such of the paint especially the loader and 3PH. I was wondering if you all occasionally touch up your toys with paint. Does such paint exist? I am guess if Kubota sells that gray or orange paint - it ain't cheap. Just thought...

    Snow Attachments  Snow Removal Options for my CUT

    I know TBN'ers get real excited when there is an opportunity to get their tractor out. I was wondering what the options are for clearing driveways of snow. The obvious thing is to use the front end loader - I don't think this is an efficient way of clearing a foot of snow or less though - do...
