Here in our part of the north, we are into our "broken hip slick ice" stage of winter.. This meaning too cold yet to thaw anything, but we get enough sun during some days to glaze the existing packed snow on the yard and driveway... Not enough heat to melt anything, but enough to glaze the...

We have a 2015 model 2032R.. I think the block heater has given up. We got the tractor used in 2017. It was used as a baggage tub at the airport, so it was low hours, easy use. From day one it seemed the block heater didn't put out much.. OK..I figured it was new and modern from what I was used...

So I been thinking..... At times my Sweetie would say... "Now what ?" I'm thinking it would be quick, easy, and hopefully economical to build a storage, shelter shed from shipping containers. I want rodent and bear proof storage for livestock feed, hay, other equipment and directly out of the...

Earlier this fall I got a Piranha tooth bar. There are 10,000 posts about them. About 60% of the reason I got it was to be sacrificial and not ware down the cutting edge on my FEL bucket moving snow on our long gravel drive. It works well moving snow AFTER you do some learning curve of how to...

No..... I'm not talking about installing a phone in the bird house..... chuckle...... I did a kind of quick and dirty build of a wing for my 5' back blade while I was working on other projects also....... I usually use it at the first angle setting all the time and move snow from the middle...

I tried to post this earlier.... Computer must have ate my post.... OK..... So I've had this rattling around in my head a while. Now finely got it together..... So to speak.... I built a 5' yard thatch rake for my universal 3pt tool bar. It is simple enough and seems to work well enough. I...

So...... I built this multi use 5' tool bar for the 3pt..... And it has worked well. So, I'm in the process of building a set of de thatching type arms to mount on the tool bar. Easy enough to do.... Then got to thinking..... How can I make this attach to the front of the tractor and de...

There have been a lot of threads and posts about ballast boxes etc.... Here is my version. I have about $10 of on hand material into it. I only bought/needed 6 suitcase weights, as my tractor front bracket only holds 5 weights.... Good luck ----

I have a very pronounced brown thumb when it comes to plants and gardens...... But I LOVE Lingonberry jam.... Today I ordered plants for the bear proof raised beds I have ready. The directions from the nursery say plant them and leave them alone. Don't pamper them. I'm in the north edge of...

Somewhere there is a thread about mounting skid shoes on a back blade. There was a request for pictures, and I finely got around to doing that. This is the skid shoes I made for and use on my repainted King Kutter back blade. The bottom of the shoe is flush with the bottom of an unused...
