I’m in agreement. While my place is relatively small (1acre), I am mowing with the original blades on my 2013 Kubota BX25D. The blades are dressesed lightly with a flapper disc and sharpened with a file by hand. The edge comes out like a knife without removing too much material. Yes, it takes...

My land plane is 58” wide for use behind a Kubota BX25D. The front blade is angled 15 degrees. The cutters are standard box blade cutter bars which are bolted to 4 four inch angle iron. If I had it to do over I would move the rear blade all the way to the back of the unit and move the front...

Easy trick on magnets. I put mine in zip lock bags. They hold just fine and all the grindings and metal dust drop off when you take them out of the bag.

I added four 4” capacity corner clamps to my welding tool inventory. It makes set up much easier. I have twelve C clamps with throats ranging for 6” to 15” and run three Mikita grinders: one with a flap wheel, one with a grinder disc and one with a cutoff wheel. I use a five foot length of...
