    A bit of a strange one I guess. Had just turned off from working then wife wanted to remove wreaths. Jumped back on and started quickly and before it completed started I moved to steering column shift lever into forward. It immediately shut down although it was never completely started. Now it...

    Clearing Pines (Video)

    I've been clearing some pines behind the house. Wife shot some video so thought I'd share. Took down 30 this way over the weekend. I think I only had to dig 3 stumps out. 100_3186.flv - Video - Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting 100_3188.flv - Video - Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

    Sandstone retaining wall

    I've been working on a sandstone retaining wall the last few days and thought I'd post an update. Here are some pictures of my progress. (FYI - the date on my camera is off by a month or so) Not quite sure how this will turn out. Just kinda going with the flow. Picking rocks is the toughest...

    Rake  Landscape Rake Gauge Wheels

    Anyone ever found a cheaper way to put gauge wheels on their rake. I'm pricing a landpride 7ft rake along with a 6ft box scaper and the landpride kit for gauge wheels is like $350. Seems high. Dealer said retail is $400. Any comments?

    Front Remote and Joystick Photos

    Just posting this for a member who private messages me for photos of my L39 set up. I was able to send photos I have used from previous post to him but these I haven't posted before and I don't see how you can attach photos to a private message which have been posted before. Now since they are...

    Treeline / Stump Progress

    Been busy with several projects but thought I'd throw a few pics up of a tree line I'm clearing. It doesn't look like much (pic a) but the trees were actually cut down before I owned the property and what you see in the first picture are actually shoots that have grown off the stumps. The...

    Utilizing the float on an FEL?

    This may sound like a dumb question but I haven'[t figured out how to engage the float feature on the FEL of my L39. It's my understanding this should let the bucket "float" on the surface. Is this correct? If so, the controls indicate on the little sticker thing that you push it all the way...

    L39 Problem Already?

    Well - I was hoping to post pics of the new L39 which arrived today. Unfortunately the pics are of a problem. Seems pretty bad to me but maybe someone here knows something I don't. I put the grapple on and things were working well (got some nice pics) then one side popped off. The problem...
