    Fence Line App for my phone?

    I had a surveyor friend come mark mine out. He did what ever surveyors do from each cornerpin and drove a stake every 50’. I know that’s not what you wanted. But being in the construction biz, if you could get your hands on transit,that would be the way to go. Using an app you may have a line on...

    Sluggish Mule

    I have a 4010 mule with a diesel. I drove it today for the first time in months. I haven't been around much so I'm not sure how it's been abused. About 12 mph is all I can get out of it. It starts and idles good but is just real sluggish. Where should I start. Fuel system or the belt. Like I...

    Blue and orange come together.

    I went to help a friend on a landscaping job. He was behind and had 2 big piles of dirt to move and spread. Because I was just going to loosen the pile and he would spread it,we decided not to take a box on mine to save room. Big mistake. That tractor beat me to death with out a counterweight...

    How does the hour meter record. Does it record hour for hour or does it work off the rpms.

    Socket Organizer

    Does anybody have any good ideas for socket organizers. They are a mess and hard to keep up with. The rails I have them on are hard to get off and most times the sizes are turned to where I can't see them. Homemade or store bought would work. I have posted the picture of my end wrenches to show...

    New Carhart coat

    I bought a new coat tonight on a whim. It is called a Crowley jacket. It looks to be made of spandex. Has anybody tried one. How well does it hold up. I don't think I will be welding in it. Is it waterproof.?

He bought another oe set and when he breaks one he brings it over and I give him the spare and then fix the freshly broken one and save it til he breaks the next one.

    A dye for spraying weeds

    I was out today spraying weeds. I have a bad jinsom weed problem. The fence lines are easy to keep track of but the ones that are growing random in the open are hard to keep up with. Does anybody use a dye to keep up with what's been sprayed. I'm spraying with a 25 gal sprayer in the back of my...

    Plumbing a stump grinder

    I found a Woods 50 stump grinder on CL for $3500. It's brand new, as soon as he got it somebody loaned him a Vermeer. So he plumbed it to his older Kubota and used it one time. ??? He has all 4 cylinder hoses run to an old Kubota joy stick that will control up down and swing. The 4 cylinder...

    Need Help With A Stihl Saw

    I startedup my MS 390 to cut a log. I ra it for less than a minute when white smoke started coming out of the muffler. It was still running but I cut it off. My first thought was the gas. But it's the same gas I had been using in my Farm Boss. This saw is about 3 y/o. 2 years ago the plug blew...

    Gear box lube

    I got a used Bush Hog last week. I hooked it up Friday and it started leaking oil right away. My nieghbor said it was too full or had water in it. So we pulled the plug and drained some. This oil was in it. It was too pure looking to have water in it. But we neither one have seen anything like...

    A safer alternative to Roundup

    I went to talk to a lady that wants me to reseed her pastures. She has moved her horses to my place and doesn't want to take care of horses anymore. Her meadows as she called them are beat up pretty bad. Nothing but weeds left after 2 years of keeping horses on them. I don't do this for a...

    Adjusting a tiller

    I borrowed my nieghbors tiller and hooked it up to my cat 2 tractor. I can't get it to dig over 2 or 3". I have adjusted the top link in and out but it won't sit down and dig. It looks like it's sitting on the skid shoes and may not go any deeper. Or is the tractor too big to let it ride right.
