I found this background interesting.

What brand / model of Over-the-counter hearing aid(s) have you bought? Likes? (other than comfort to wear, that's going to be user specific) Dislikes? Price? Would you buy the same ones again?

The cotter pin sheared that holds the pivot post on the Jubilees draw bar. I have everything aligned and a smaller pin through the holes but the drawbar swings freely to one side. The other direction the spring inside the pivot housing stops if from going far that direction. Any tips on getting...

I picked up a Golden Jubilee and am in the process of draining / changing all the fluids. It had sat outside uncover for 3 years. Looking over the tractor the two small levers on either side of the operator station (see pics) have me wondering about their use. Likely use of the tractor will be...

The lube fill port on my Bush Hog 2102 PHD is 1/2" NPT. Thinking iabout replacing the plug with a 12" capped nipple then attaching a laser level to the nipple. That should give a good indication when it's set up to drill the hole straight and indicate when to make forward adjustments as the PHD...

Picked up a used bandsaw yesterday. The band on it id pretty fine toothed (14~18 TPI) and the seller said it was probably dull. Set it up and cut some 2" galvanized pipe with ~1/4" wall (standard house drain type stuff). It took several minutes, but did make a nice clean square cut. The first...

With all respect due (you can be the judge of that) to Manfred Mann... On a scale of 1 -10, the trend toward brighter headlights has hit ridiculous. There are national highway insurance institute tests / studies indicating how well the new retina burning headlights allow a driver to see a deer...

What variables impact trailer towing with a slide in camper, specifically campers over 8' long in an 8' bed? Are there design differences that limit or enhance towing? Which factors, other than weight, need special consideration? Found out today the offer on some property about an hour away...

Close to work is a 4 way stop intersection that is very busy on school day mornings. There is almost always 2 or 3 cars waiting from each direction during the morning rush hour. In the image below the cars are labeled with the order 1, 2, 3, 4 that they arrive at the intersection and by law...

Are you seeing our of gas gas stations in your area? I haven't been out for 3 days but keep hearing the price is jumping and in some places they are experiencing shortages. Timing is bad for the harvest :( Are we headed for rationing?

...making a political statement, tell me were you would put your money in my scenario. ~4-5 years from retiring. Can take what I have saved now and what I can add to it between now and retirement and be okay. Won't be okay if my current savings take a hit. I imagine the advice of those...

Guess my age is showing. Never thought this would be a practical endeavor

View from front of tractor. It's leaking out of the cap like projection on the right. I'm guessing that's the pressure adjustment Side view. It's on a late 70's Ford 770 loader Only identifying marks I can find. It just started dripping, but the squeal has become more frequent during...

I have searched all...and searched videos...and searched images...and searched...but cannot find the answer to how much clearance there should be between the ground and the bottom of pontoon tubes (logs) when trailering on a flat level surface. I have a center lift crank style trailer with one...

You know those days when the ground won't support you (to muddy, etc...) on the tractor, you have to stick around the house for an appointment, or it's OhDarkThirty and sleeping isn't working? After you've exhausted all the great specific search terms like "tractor", "saw", "UTV", "winch"...

Does a 2 WD tractor have an advantage over a 4 WD tractor that is operating in 2 WD? Entering and exiting the woodlot there is about 300 feet of gradual grade and 150 feet of pretty steep grade. Both are a little greasy from recent continual rain. Saturday morning I consciously didn't bother...

....there is enough time to get <insert your task here> done. If not I'm screwed" has become my new motto :( Rain...shorter daylight hours...work...etc...these things are conspiring against me ;)

What would be the best way to straighten the lower member of this trailer tongue? Its 1/2" thick x 2 1/4" wide. I'm afraid if I try prying / wedging against the top, the top will bend up instead of the bottom bending down. I don't have acetylene torches :( The only plan I can come up with is...

I'm back on high ground :) Ice under snow on hills presents quite the challenge sometimes!

I have: PA-300 welder 3/32 6013 rod 1/8 7018 rod The project will be a log arch of sorts, the pieces clamped to the ends will have axle stubs connecting 54" diameter, 17" wide, 300 pound tires & wheels bolted & welded to the assembly. Logs weighing up to 3,000 lbs will be suspended under the...

It's a fiberglass car vinyl top shell. The flat area measures roughly 4' square. I planned to use it to make a canopy but it's to big for my tractor. Someone with reasonable bodywork skills could make a sharp looking custom rain / sun shade. Located n Central Michigan, pick it up or arrange...

The near side was done last spring Put the far side (near side in the pic below) in just before deer season started this fall Took down the last two dead ash trees on the near side over the long holiday weekend. There are a lot more to harvest on the opposite shore. Hard for me to...

Two big (~24" & 28" DBH) dead ash leaning over my trail through the woods. Both had poison ivy that I cut at the base early in the spring and the bigger one had a 10" cedar hung up in it. Pulled the cedar free with the 1700. Cleared my escape routes. Cut a shallow steep notch to try to steer...

roughly? My FEL frame had a cracked frame that someone had welded, Last week I heard a clicking sound while hauling logs and sure enough the weld (we won't say what kind of weld) had cracked. Got the tractor home from the woods and cleaned up the previous weld as best I could (tough area to...

I have two "experts" giving conflicting advice on repair of a badly alligatored asphalt parking lot. The original installation was, in both experts opinion, very well (overly) done in regards to the base and surface. This is evidenced by the fact the lot isn't heaving or settling. The surface...

So, when I installed the kitchen faucet 3 1/2 years ago, there were no instructions in the box. The diverter valve had two outlet connections with the same size fitting to which each of a flexible hose was to be connected. One was for the sprayer, the other for the spout. Logic dictated the...

The ground is finally drying up enough to get into & out of the low area surrounding the creek and start bringing out ash logs I've been stacking up down there. There's a pretty steep (25' up over about 75' distance grade through a 50' wide opening, see topo) that will need to be traversed so...

Can I keep it? A section of spring tooth harrow (I believe). Somehow going to affix the springs to a bar / pipe that can be quickly attached to the FEL with the points down to "rake" the woods after clearing to get the small trees / brush pulled out. Hopefully will be able to flip the bar...

Saw a Jobsmart Fluxcore 125 Mig welder, new in box, on the clearance table at the farm supply store a few years ago for $48. Sticker said "Won't feed wire", I said (to myself) "That's got to be something simple to fix" and bought it. Fast forward ~ 3 - 4 years and now that I am a tractor owner...

I've been lurking on & off for several years. A recent purchase of the tractor in the picture to the left has had me scouring these boards for all kinds of advice over the last month ~ 6 weeks. I learned what the previous owner didn't know (or perhaps didn't care) about changing fuel pump...
