    How to "undercoat" mower deck.

    Great replies - my thought on the antifouling paint was to prevent grass from building up. Rust has never been an issue for my simplicity.

    How to "undercoat" mower deck.

    I have been giving thought to using anti fouling paint used for boats bottoms. Has anyone tried it, or know of a reason not to?

    Mice got me!

    I have a neighbor cat that helps with the population and I placed bags of mothballs under the hoods and by the wiring harness. This was the first year I didn’t have any nests.

    Removing GC2310 2450 Front End Loader and 2375 Backhoe

    Exo - have the same tractor. Removing the BH is easy, putting it back on can be a pain. i chose to make a backhoe dolly to make it a little easier. If you are missing and of the colors (red, blue, yellow, etc), my suggestion would be to purchase and install some before you disconnect anything.

    3pt or Stand Alone Splitter

    @Syncro - I like the Country Line you show in your pics. I am not sure that TS sells it anymore - didn't see it on their website @IH2424 - great point on the flow rate. I will have to check my owners manual - pretty sure my GC2310 is 4.1

    3pt or Stand Alone Splitter

    Folks - Looking for hands on experience with 3pt splitters Weighing the benefits of one less engine to maintain, cost comparisons, etc. What experience can you share?

    Critter Nests

    I store my equipment (MF tractor, simplicity lawn tractor and snowblower) in an unheated Shelter Logic garage. The snowblower and lawn tractor are great spots for the field mice to nest in the off seasons. I am curious what folks do to deter them - mothballs, peppermint, anything else?

    Rent or buy a chipper-- I need to decide soon

    I was in a similar quandary - for over a year i had the same mental debate. For me the issue with rentals is the time spent on pick up/delivery and having to fit my work into their operating hours. While it is not insurmountable, I did not want the stress of get it done an hour before they close...

    Fabric tractor shed

    We moved into our home June 2017. The previous owner had a 14x24 ShelterLogic with a gravel floor. I swapped that for a concrete pad this summer.
