good thing they have those milk crates for counter weight !

Friend of mine has a PTO chipper and when I sent him a pic of my Brush Bandit his comment was wow, mine won't even chip pipe !

Wow, going to be able to get rid of the Case or the Kubota !

Sounds like the old 'chuck and duck' chipper. No feed roller just the knives yanking in branches at full tilt. When I was little there was a guy at my dads nursery missing an arm from one of those. Left quite an impression on me. He ran the grader too , didn't seam to slow him down much.

I was going to post this but Jstpssng beat me to it. My mom send me the link. My Brush Bandit is at least that big and I usually run it alone, hence the link from my mom ! When I have someone helping safety is job one. Climbing , bull ropes and vines are a a real hazard and elevate the dander...

The lottery is a tax on people that are bad with math !

Wonder how that ball will work as the ground? Keep it wet I guess !

Mini excavator! Wife brought home a couple of grape vines in two gallon pot. She said go get the excavator, so I did !

Can you post a link to your video please ? Have a customer willing to purchase either a flail or rotary mower for my Ditch Witch mini track loader but I don't think it's a wise investment for the amount of area that he has. He has a Gravely 30" rotary ( man killer ) and weed wack the rest.

Now for the 3pt hitch hook up ! A motorized Howitzer !

Lots of people are going to have to make some tough choices this fall, heat or eat, won't be easy to do both!

A tractor site and no one, not one person has suggested hooking it up to the PTO and swinging it around by its tail like a dead cat to let centrifugal force work it's magic ! May need to back up to a loading dock to get proper clearance, and don't forget to use a counter weight or it could be...

Free webinar on open water lifeguarding. I have taken his ice rescue class, he does a great job. His videos of incidents are memorable! https://lifesaving.com/open-water-lifeguarding-webinar/

So that's what aliens look like !

Saw this on TCM , Fun to see some classic iron.

Every time I see a machine that size go by on a low deck I tell my wife , that's a perfect size homeowner machine !

You used great restraint not adding a hot rodded Honda to that scooter !

Price your lumber like the lumber yard and there should be enough 2x4s in that "toothpick " to pay for the mill !!

Amazing paint job on the garage Timmy !

You guys should try it, sure would help with your year round fire season !

Had one of those at the nursery where I grew up. Had a 59" Woods belly mower. It ran flat out for 8 hours a day on three gallons of diesel. Don't think it ever needed anything but servicing and sharpening.

Looks like your timing was right on the money as far as buying the mill and retirement !

Nice score ! That old girl will still be purring while some of the new ones will be down with electronic and emission issues. Check out Diesel Creek on You Tube, he has a way with these older gems.

Nice upgrade ! Enjoy!

We had a 6X6 499cc that did that , turned out to be a bad cam shaft at 225 hours !

Get it about the pool, same deal here ! 4 seasons ? Wait till you're in NH full time, full blown mud season now , waiting for black fly season, then time for the summer complaints !

Glad she stopped! Would be quite a pic of a swimming Deere !

Not enough Overhead clearance for the trucks to tailgate spread ?

I need one !! WE all need one ! What an opportunity for a TBN get together with our new turbine leaf blowers in Lexington MA ! https://www.wickedlocal.com/story/lexington-minuteman/2021/11/19/lexington-votes-restrict-eventually-ban-gas-powered-leaf-blowers/8687223002/ Jet A isn't gas after all !

I think I would hold out for a four wheel drive .

Looking good !

Nice work ! That Cat loader will look good on there !

Like my dad told the guys at Star Roses " One stone thick and not to close together !"

Yep,we need a red flag button like Craig's List !

I'll put him to work stacking my totes ! Word is a start like that is what lead to George Washington chopping down that cherry tree !

A real milk shake !

A honey maze ! Much tastier than a corn maze !

Wonder what the price point will be to see critter sell off ? The crazy prices may be ok for the top of the one percenters but it's going to be pretty tough on those that were just getting by to begin with.

One of the bosses at our local drug rehab had an interesting take on the legalization. He said that as soon as pot was legalized the corner dealers had to stay competitive which they do by offering hours that go beyond 9-5 and they add other drugs to the pot to make a better "high". They are...

Good bit more than an ATV but then again it does a lot more than an ATV !

And when you cook up the ice that you caught it makes a pretty thin soup !

Still waiting for the picture of the prostitute !

Got to thinking about the pollution issues on these smaller diesels the other day. I have a Kubota 5240 that is pre emission that " they will have to pry out of my cold dead hands "! Since that '08 machine I have bought three Kubota engines ( zero turn, mini track loader and tractor ) and have...

Good thinking !

Yikes ! Treat yourself like a fine tractor, be gentle! Hope you are on the mend !

Hay Dude what was your injury? Hope it wasn't too serious. Were you able to keep up your snow plow route or wasn't that needed ?

Speakin of towing... when I was a kid in summer camp I would always hang around with the camp owner whenever he had a machine going , some things never change ! I Was showing the counselors that they had put the chain on the chainsaw backwards and before long I was running the saw and driving...

Built this one years ago out of scrap. A frame for snowplow, some sweet steel from the dump, a receiver hitch I kept from a traded vehicle, 3/4 marine plywood from a dock. Had to buy hinges and hasps though. Built it for my first Kubota, three tractors ago. Didn't use it since I got my RTV so I...

Heck , down under even the trees are poisonous and want to kill you !

Obviously need one of these ! Has to be better than plutonium , my other choice !

Geotextile fabric can make a huge difference as well, keeps the stone from disappearing into the mud below.

This would be just the ticket, don't have the flat tire issues either.

Had me worried there for a moment, thought it was going to be your project !

Waiting for the pictures!

Have fun ! We have had a few of those so far but have changed to freezing rain and ice , haven't plowed at all yet .

And with the cab there's room for a wench too !

Sweet trailer mover !

Saw the head of buildings and grounds for Yankee and the almanac at the dump today. I asked him but he didn't say. One nasty weather day at the general store I was behind the retired president of the publishing company and asked if they predicted this. He said " yep dead on !" A minute later he...

We had a rehab center in town that had that all over the place.

I spray my yard for ticks. 25gal in back of RTV with boomless spray wand. Couple of times I'll spray regular nozzle into backpack blower airstream for mosquitoes.

More to do with the concerns of the apartment dwellers. Wouldn't work for me at this time but if I didn't need to plow snow or move equipment and only needed a ride to the Uber staging warehouse to my new job who knows !

Was mentioned earlier but we are looking at the transportation issue with a set of hundred year old eyes. Picture a self driving Uber that you don't have to own, pay for, insure, maintain or charge. Ready to go, summon it from your phone, it arrives charged, clean , clear of snow. You don't...

Few years ago wife took me away for a birthday. I'm a stick in the mud, as dad said "I'm like a fine wine,I don't travel well" We were at a bed and breakfast and we go to a very nice restaurant that had a paid parking lot . The parking attendant in the little booth said we don't take cash only...

It's not a vice either ! I do have one piece though. Train travel hasn't been the same since!

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night !

My plan was to put it behind my garage on a slab with the 275 gallon tank and eventually build a shed around it. I would have added a 120v pump to the tank and cycled the fuel into my 100 gallon skid tank to keep it fresh. Turned into a project though to trench across the driveway to the house...

Similar thing happened to a friend of mine . Wife found a bra in the bed that wasn't hers. My friend had been home sick for a while and his wife went right to he's home having an affair while I'm off working! She was crying uncontrollably ,my friend was totally confused as he had no idea where...

Yep, usually the first time 4x4 owners in the ditch , they go like summer but stop and steer like winter ! At least I learned that from a friend in high school ! Leaving school he went tearing up the road in his Jeep Wagoner ( the big old school one), got to the Main road and slid right through...

5030 do you leave the block heater on all the time ? I looked at that same machine a few months ago. New owners wanted it gone, it was under their deck and was too loud and smelly so they put in a new LP further away. They wanted 4K for it but the moving turned out to be more than I wanted to...

One of my first snow driving memories was going to get studded snow tires with mom on her '71 Ford LTD . 401 under the hood and the summer tires weren't worth keeping. Of course she waited for the first snow so I said I would drive to Sears with her, got as far as the main road and wouldn't go...

Check your fuel filter, sounds like summer fuel gelling.

That wasn't an accident , it was wreck, predictable and preventable.

Clean up all your grounding spots too, a poor ground can do strange things ! Not what we're looking for here but a solution I have seen for this type of problem was to put a tee in the heater hoses with a valve and quick couplers and a matching set up in a work truck. Farmer or logger pulls up...

Work of art !

Definitely check all the harness connections and grounds, clean up and a dab of dielectric grease. A work around could be put in new glow plugs wired to a momentary switch and relay and leave the old ones hooked up to the ecu. Make them a little box to live in out of the way Under the hood...

We don't lose power too often either but have had some extended outages due to ice storms. I have a lock out on the 200 amp panel in the house and supply that from detached garage, most often run the Lincoln welder. I have a flex pipe on the muffler that I run through a plate in the window. I...

The bigger question here is how can we help him spend his new found wealth ! and should it have R1's or R4's !

Bikes and automobiles on the same piece of real estate will always be problematic, same as automobiles and trains. This woman was on the shoulder but the dirtbag driving the car apparently dozed off, hit her, flung her into a ditch and left her to be found nine hours later...

My carry all and trailer on a friends tractor.

Love my 562xp. Nothing special for the first couple of tanks then hold on ! They apparently have a break in tune then she goes to full tilt, fastest saw I've had. Can be a bit of a thoroughbred, she'll get cranky sometimes riding on the Farmi winch, gets flooded I think.

Sure had it tied down though !

bcp, spell check was here to help !

}that dates you BCS !

I always run second line back to the well to have a hose bib available, you already have the ditch so why not ! Always comes in handy.

Love my three Echo backpacks, the 80cc is a beast, I run 40:1 non ethanol as recommended by my dealer.

This guy, bought it locally though https://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_200585634_200585634

I run a 1 1/2 Honda pressure pump into 1 1/2 poly pipe around the perimeter of my property with tees and hose bibs strategically placed around the yard. Works perfectly.

4 months out for a 25hp Kubota, 2 years out for the new Kubota mini track loader !

Yep, love it ! Getting almost 3mpg more than my 6.2

Buy a real chipper, do your work and sell it later. The clean used pre emission stuff is bringing a premium price now though. Friend of mine has a big gasser on order after the problems he's had with a new diesel. He said he could sell one of his pre emission rigs for almost more than he paid ...

Nice find ! Pretty close by ?

Should be able to measure the amount of gallons of water used compared to ounces of product used.

As at a place the other day that had a $50,000 mattress !

I would be afraid the bigger load might push you down the hill !

Live free or die ! They can have my trimmer and blower when they pry them out of my cold dead hands ! Oh wait , that might be in the wrong thread !

Friend tried the goats, paid the fee , goats delivered but they didn't like the weeds they were hired to eat. Goat Owner claimed because it was too dry. Goats picked up, no refund , good at cleaning out the checkbook at least !

$3,650,000 , 95 acres , indoor pool, private eight tenths of a mile paved drive. Thousand a week in property taxes though ! https://photos.zillowstatic.com/fp/b0be4b91418e53960b55b2b64baff3c3-uncropped_scaled_within_1536_1152.webp

Used to have a chicken coop that was line of sight from the bedroom. Had a motion sensor on the coop. It sounded at 2am. Lit off the .223 ranch rifle, he was DRT and an oven stuffer but ears rang till morning! Misses frowned on that tactic from then on !

Those are works of art ! Pretty sure the ball peens have become weaponized due to the ammo shortage!

BAT is another place to post it

One of those things like " Chardonnay and emails don't mix" ?

Heck he can by 60 or 70 of those for the price of a new one !

That's the day the famous quote " Hold my beer and watch this " was first uttered !

Oh to be young again! Grew up in a Ford area . When I was in his shoes I found a Dodge Ramcharger that I couldn't live without, our Mechanic took one look and said what do you want with that old goat ? She was the Goat from that day on .

So what caused his change of heart ? Hope it serves him well !

And they are handy for water fights !

That's really roughing it ! Didn't take you long to get the light bar on there !

they need to build a 3pt version so they can use the bucket for an ice chest, what kind of red necks are they ??

I'll say it's bigger ! Perfect size homeowner machine! Is it using any oil ? Check your air filters if you haven't, have seen that issue with plugged filters. How many hours on her ? I would think a bad turbo would provide other issues !

Last time my buddy said nice rack he got slapped !

That girl could suck a quarter out of a coke bottle. 'maybe that should be in the favorite quote thread !

Are the trees close enough that you could hook them up to a poly pipe with drip irrigation and pump into that a slow rate ?

You need water not power . Get the small 4stroke Honda pump, put a splitter ( hose Y ) in the discharge . Run one side to your watering hose and the other return to the tote to keep a constant flow.

Of the mind set that one is none and two is one. Three wood stoves, added an 80 gallon pressure tank to the water system, then there's the generators. 8K welder/generator, 6K diesel, 6.5 Honda inverter and a couple of Honda 2K's. Three big guys plumbed into manual hole house transfer switch (one...

No kidding, well done, especially for being your first time !:cool:

I had to put stall mats down after I studded my tractor tires. I found some that someone removed from a barn, holding up fine, wouldn't want to roll a toolbox over them though.

The green guys do seem to have the attitude sometimes that they are the only game around. Took a client to purchase a side by side and a Gator was first on his list as he had one at another property. Showed up with a trailer and checkbook but they couldn't even be bothered to come out and show...

Have a few buckets ready and slide one out, one in .

Friend of mine bought a new Duramax when I got my 7.3. Saw him last week with a suv, he said it was a loaner while they had his new Chevy for 3-4 weeks , waiting on parts for the emission system and there were three trucks ahead of him ! Needless to say he wasn't too happy !

Reminds me of way back in high school , kid had a big farm that grew corn and soybeans. One day his mom found a rat behind the washing machine and dispatched it with a 10 gauge ! Has to be pretty hard on the house !

What a beauty, wonder if I could fashion it into a coffee table so I could keep it in the house?!:cool: what year do you figure?

Had a few belt issues on a Polaris 6X6, always got us back but a real pain overall. Running a Honda Pioneer and a Kubota RTV, Love them both .

Will if you are close enough. I got the S & W Governor for just that, lots of options of what feed it too.

Can always throw Down a sheet of plywood at the turning points too

Wonder if this new moderator is responsible for the threads closing ?!

I wouldn't count out the mini skid either. My Ditch Witch has 4.3 psi footprint. Handiest machine I own !

Nice mod ! All these reply's and no comments on the boots ??

Good thinking, order up a new Ram / Cummins, SRW, reg cab 8'bed. Plow/sander winter, fuel tank / toolbox summer.

Had a math teacher like that, he was also one of the sports coaches. One day one of the boys wasn't paying attention and he fired a blackboard eraser at his head like a line drive. Pretty near knocked him out of the chair ! He was the only one hit but we all got the message !
