    Need input on insulated/heated water supply hose-

    As always- a bit behind on getting ready for winter. This is not an urgent need as I am able to haul water daily to the animal shelter but would make life a lot easier. Winter temperature is well below freezing for the most part. All water comes off out well. The total run would be about 175...

    Using additional loader valve on power beyond

    Aside from the general mounting nightmare... Is there any reason I shouldn't use a complete loader valve assembly to add extra functions? I would plumb it in to the power beyond on the existing loader control unit- I see one listed on ebay that might work for this. Not sure if the idea is a...

    Rear Finish Mower  BEFCO Cyclone c30- is it worth it?

    Today I looked at what appears to be an older model Cyclone C30 tow behind finish mower. It is self powered with an 11.5 HP gas engine and certainly looks to have been ridden hard and put away wet:( My intentions are to use it as a field mower/Light brush hog. I do not have to worry about...

    Buying a Welder

    I am sort of a hobby farmer that is considering the purchase of welding equipment. The equipment will serve 2 general purposes. Repairing what I break and, some light to medium fabrication work. It is not something that will be used daily. When it is used, it won't be for hours at a time. I...

    Where did all of that come from?!?!?!

    Yesterday, I spent a leisurely afternoon cleaning up the driveway- removing maybe 4 inches of snow that had collected in spots from drifting. :o I knew that snow as coming...but I never know what to believe when it comes to the weather forecasters. Moderate surprise this morning when I looked...

    My wife torments me

    I love her...I truly do. But there are times I wonder if my wife does this to me on purpose. This summer, after much crying, complaining and begging, I convinced my wife that she should let me get a mini excavator next year. Finally I thought, my ability to reason with her had worked. She is...

    After market cab for B3200

    I have seen them available, but has anyone seen or put an aftermarket cab on the 3200? I've looked at the 3030 and for the additional creature comforts vs the price- i just cannot justify it for my needs. Really, what I am looking for is shelter and warmth when plowing in the winter. A heater...

    Too Many Choices

    Went onto the Kubota Site and spec out 3 different tractors with essentially the same options B7800,B3200 both came back within a couple of hundred dollars of each other. The B3030 came back significantly higher, the only difference is the factory installed cab was added. The biggest...

    B3200 replacing 7510/7610? or 7800?

    I am confused....nothing truly new- but I just looked at the Kubota site and no longer see the 7510/7610 listed, but the 7800 is. based on a couple of previous posts, people seem to think that the 3200 is replacing the 7800. it would appear that it is the opposite. Second question/statement-...
