I don't recall ever having this many. They are everywhere! The dogs think they are delicious. No upset stomachs yet, but I try to limit their intake. [emoji23]

I have had a reoccurring scenario at my place. It's not a regular occurrence, but I have noticed it several times. I'm walking outside on a nice quiet day, and I hear an airplane engine start up overhead. It's not skimming the tree tops, but it's fairly low and close. It must have flown to a...

I finally got around to replacing a fence post that had rotted through at ground level, to the point that the fence was holding up the post, rather than the post holding up the fence. A little below ground level, this is what the post was showing. I thought I might get lucky and be able...

We recently had a short power outage for about ten minutes. Our Generac whole house generator kicked on, but we still had no power in the house. I removed the cover from the transfer switch, and there is a manual switch that requires a tool (which is provided) to manually switch the house load...

I have a 10 gallon electric hot water heater in my barn that is about 15 years old, and I recently noticed some hot water dribbling out of the pressure relief valve. My wife had recently washed her horse, and she said she used all the hot water in the process. I currently have the water and...

I live in southern Ohio, and I found these tracks in my barn. The footing is loose sand, so it doesn't take too much pressure to dig a little furrow. I initially thought the animal was dragging a kill in its mouth, but the trail covers a long and meandering path. Any ideas? An obese raccoon...

I received a package of tractor parts today, and the box contained a fair amount of bubble wrap, so I decided to pop a few bubbles before throwing it out. As it turns out, this bubble wrap has some sort of newer and more elastic design that makes it resistant to popping! I squeeze a bubble...

I've seen it mentioned here and other places that waterfowl carry fish eggs in from other bodies of water, but I have not read about specifically *how* that happens. I pictured eggs somehow getting stuck to a duck's foot or something, and then rinsing off in another location. While that seemed...

He said he was having back surgery a few weeks ago, and he hasn't posted since.

I bought this mower last year, and I just did the initial break-in service for the transmission oil and filters. I got it done, but good gravy, what a hassle! I'm thinking there HAS to be an easier way. When adding the new fluid, the manual says to remove an upper breather plug, and fill until...

I have an M5700 that's about 18 years old and has about 1400 hours. I'm seeing some minor and some sporadic issues with the 3PH that are not severe enough to significantly impact the usability, but I'd like avoid having a major problem. The only consistent thing I'm seeing is that if I shut the...

We seem to have a few computer people that hang around here, so I thought I'd give this a shot. I have a few network cameras and a computer on my home network that I occasionally want to access when I'm not at home, using my iPhone or Windows 10 laptop. The need is not frequent or critical...

I live in southern Ohio, and something digs tunnels about four inches in diameter near my pond. My pond doesn’t have a manufactured dam, it’s just a hole dug in a flat field. The tunnels are in the side of the pond with slightly higher elevation. I’ve never seen beavers or muskrats. We have...

I attended public elementary school in the mid to late sixties, and we did not receive letter grades. Our report cards graded us on effort. O - outstanding effort U - unsatisfactory effort Check - acceptable effort Minus - needs improvement We received scores on individual tests, but...

I did a search and didn't find anything quite like this issue. I have a BX2350 with about 1200 hours on it, and I bought it new. I started it today, and it fired right up, but the RPMs raced to about 3500, even though I moved the throttle all the way down. This continued for about 15 seconds...

I attached a picture with the back tire removed. It leaks out onto the rear tire. I did a search, and the closest match I found was this thread. http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/kubota-owning-operating/245803-bx-24-blew-rear-axle.html Like that thread, mine seems to be pressure-related. It...

I'm replacing the hood on my BX2350, and I want to remove the Kubota emblem on the old hood to put it on the new one. It's not clear to me how it would come off. I attached pictures of the top and bottom view of the things I'm trying to remove. There is also a decorative silver thing that...

I'm not sure if any of their batteries fit my BX2350. Their D35 looks like a similar size to mine, but it's about an inch longer. It looks like it would fit, but it would be close. Is anyone here using an Optima battery in a BX? The battery size looks identical to a group 26R, but the manual...

They aren't damaged, but the ends are noticeably thinner from about 12 years of annual sharpening. How do I determine when they are worn down enough to need replacing?

My first attempt to post this got boogered some how, so I'm trying again. I could use some very detailed instructions, preferably with pictures, on proper technique to get from the roof back onto the step ladder. From a comfort level, I feel pretty good on the ladder and on the roof, but I get...

I would think this has been discussed before, but my search of old threads didn't find anything that seemed to match my circumstances. I have a Stihl MS 290 that is about six years old. The last time I used it was during the winter, and it worked fine. Now, I can pull the cord until my arm...

For people who own 3ph post drivers, I'm curious how you disconnect and store it to minimize the risk of the thing falling on you. I store mine on a post in the corner of my barn, and I always thought it felt fairly solid. But the last time I disconnected it, it rotated counter clockwise and...

I have a BX2350 with about 50 hours on it. I would like to get the MMM locked in the highest position and still be able to lower the 3PH. From reading the manual, it looks like the best I can do is lock it in the 4" mowing height. Is there something I'm missing? Or is there a non-invasive...
