Anyone have any details on the new Kubota 2015 B series tractors? I'm very interested in finding out the details! (0:

Had some free time today so used the Kubota to clean up the firewood area. Love my 72" piranha tooth bar. Makes the bucket much easier to control. Also skidded a couple logs that we're blocking my fence line trail. It's just big enough for my Honda Foreman. (0:

Looks like Lowes are finally carrying some Kobalt tools that are actually made in the USA. These screwdrivers are US made.

Last for today is this nice Craftsmen tool box level. It's handy, warranty for life and made in the USA! Have a great day y'all!

One of my prized hammers is this Dalluge hammer. Mr Dalluge started making these in his garage and then was bought by Vaughn. Another great US made company. This is a 12 oz trim hammer with axe handle. Sweet hammer!

This is some of my Klein screw drivers... These are about 3 years old but you can still buy them all day long. Made in the USA and tool of choice for pro electricians.

Here's some Craftsman picks and an inspection mirror. The picks came from local sear store and the mirror from K-Mart! It's very well made.

Here's some Channel Lock products... A grade quality. The nippers are real nice. Think they came from Wal-Mart of all places! Some of my channel locks came from lowes
