    Building a folding work table for enclosed trailer; looking for some ideas

    Hey folks, Just bought an enclosed trailer we're using for motorcross and other adventures. It's an all aluminum frame and siding with wooden panels screwed to the ribs for interior walls with e-Track running down it to help secure toys, fuel, etc. I plan to build a folding work table from a...

    Backhoe  Hydraulic hose split on B2320

    Hi Fellas, Haven't been on here in a while because the Kubota just keeps on running. Going on 9 years old with almost 500 hours and by far the best purchase I have ever made. With all of that said, I was cutting the grass the other day, pulled up on the deck raise lever and got sprayed all...

    Well, a little over a year later we had the driveway sealed and the back patio is coming together; still a lot of work to do but here are some pictures of the progress.

    Covered the creek and raised the driveway

    I pulled the trigger and I am really happy we did. Kids having been riding bikes, scooters and playing basketball on it all month. Although the cold can hold off as long as it wants to, really excited about no ice on the driveway in the winter.

    Covered the creek and raised the driveway

    You guys are reading my mind, that is why I am asking. Had hoped to have it in last October to winter. I wasn't here when he did it but I will ask him if he put it in in lifts. Looked up the specs on this machine that he rolled it out with. 26000 pounds. He told me it's ready to be paved but...

    Covered the creek and raised the driveway

    In preparing to pave our driveway, I wanted to pipe and cover the small drainage creek to the one side as well as take the sag out of the contour of the driveway. I have been working with a neighbor who has an excavating company and he fit me into his schedule this week. He originally thought we...

    Loader  Broken loader lever at weld

    Anyone ever have their loader handle break at the weld on the plate that attaches to the valve? I was rushing around on Saturday before the weather hit to get dirt moved and with a bucket full of dirt, the lever broke off in my hand. Long story short, i took the bolts holding the plate to the...

    New Patio

    Thanks Eddie; I assume you mean to have kids as young as mine or were you implying that I was the guy on the right in the picture? LOL! Tub came yesterday and the weather has cooperated to get most of the wall completed. Order lights, transformers and the fire pit. Still need some more corner...

    New Patio

    My dear wife and I decided on block color and style and they were delivered yesterday. After hauling a few of these blocks around with a cheap tool that isn't sized right for this type of block, I went to bed last night dreaming that I would wake up and the walls were done. No such luck haha! I...

    Newly blacktopped driveway

    Hi Men, We are preparing to black top our driveway if the prep work gets finished before the paving crew is available. I still have my 60" plow on my Kubota. I can't fathom the thought of running the skids or the plow edge across a new driveway. Have any of you attempted to mount caster or...

    New Patio

    My wife and I talked about doing this for several years and she is finally getting her hot tub. Needed a patio. Start to finish was 2.5 weeks thanks to my buddy Ron Eger at Ron Eger Masonry coming in for the forming, pouring and finishing. The Kubota earned it's spot in the garage one more...

    Neighbors and favors.

    So I've had my tractor for almost 4 years and I finally had a neighbor ask about a favor this past summer. I cleaned the R3 rip rap out of his ditch with the backhoe to get the sediment out and then he let rain clean it off and put it back by hand. He insisted on paying me and I told home the...
