All right here is the project. 20 year old gravel driveway/road in Michigan still seems to have good gravel base. Did a grade best I could late fall before a little freeze. Can't have a lot of frost in it right now because it never got cold this winter. It has a lot of potholes right now...

Want to make my own gas. I know I could blow up but what would it take?

Have heated the house with a wood stove for 6 years now. Wood is mostly dead fall from our property and a lot from from people we know who are more than happy to give wood away when they need trees cut or cleaned up. Free wood heats best. Would not use wood if had to buy it. Our utility bill...

I need a new Stihl had a 290 worked it to death for the last 15 or so years. Was happy with it. Thinking of getting one with a 20 inch bar. The old had a 16 I still have it could switch but my question is will a 20 inch bar be too much for this machine. Most of cutting is downed trees for...

I am still kicking the idea around and have looked a bit more online, most dealers around don't keep much in stock. The best prices are on ebay, everything attachments.com and a few other places. Most are sold as qa style which is also my other debate. I have a bucket and snow plow that that...

is the dealer the best place to buy a cutting edge for my 6 foot hd bucket on a 16la loader. I have not looked at price yet but figure a few hundred for one. I noticed my bucket has some wear on it and thought a cutting edge would be good. the holes are all there for it thanks

I added some lights (two of the ones attached in pic) to my exmark laser z turn this winter since a few times I finish mowing after dark in the fall and early spring. here is my question. last weekend I had the lights on for awhile and the tractor started to stall out of no where. I don't...

I am not sure how to explain this so I will use my non engineering non electrical rambling. We had our house resided and on one end over the garage we had a motion light that we put a new fixture up to look better with the siding. the way the old light worked was that is came on if...

Last year I bought a 4 h pig at the county fair. That was some of the best pork I have tasted. I would like to raise 2 pigs myself this spring. We have 13 acres 2 of which are not wooded can I do it? What would it take? Currently other than the dog we don't have any animals. (unless 4 kids...

How do I figure out how much per acre my sprayer is spraying. I have a 15 gallon homemade sprayer that I have made for my exmark mower. It has a 3.5 gpm flojet pump which says it has 45 psi. I have made a boom that is about 6 feet wide with five spray tips on it. I use it for liquid...

I have a 1996 1500 silverado that the engine is lets say on its last leg. I know I could not do this with my lack of engine knowledge but, could someone replace the v8 gas engine with a diesel engine in it when it dies. the truck itself is in good shape. I can get bio diesel cheaper than...

I have TC 40 that has one maybe two leaking quick conectors for the FEL. I looked at them with the loader unpluged and can see that one is missing part of the gasket on the tractor side. I figure that is why I am leaking oil. my question is what is the best way to remove them and do I simply...

I am slowly (it's taken about 4 years) to get to a point on my property to have enough trees/brush cleared out to start seeing a 1-2 acre wildlife food plot area. the question is what tool to start working the area for planting my be next year. the ground has a few inches of a peat (old roots)...

I heard there is new (or at least I just heard of it) in Mason, MI does anyone know the name. it is a TSC take off thanks

I was not sure if this should go in the oil thread or new holland. I asked my wife to pick up some 10w-30 oil at the store as it is time for the 200 hour change. that is all I told her and she picked up castrol synthetic blend. Can I use that in a tc 40? I have never used synthetic oil and...

I know spring is near. As I leave for work each day I notice the pot holes in my 1800' plus gravel drivway and wonder what better ways there are to take care of it. I currently use a cheap tractor supply rear blade a western snow plow mounted on my loader. and the bucket with home made...

First I don't believe in bad car ma so I don't think my post in the rural living has anything to do with this. I am trying to clear about 3 acre. of thick but small/tall brush. Ocasionly I run over small logs that seem to make their way under the tractor and wedge on parts on the under side I...

I picked up a new engine oil filter for the next oil change and when I looked at the one on the tractor it is much larger than the one they gave me at the dealer. the new new holland one has stamped on it the numbers 87415600 is this one right or do I need to go back and exchange it.

since I have rear remotes on my TC-40 will I be happy with a tsc/northern log splitter run by the tractor hydraulics. I see the advantages of a seprate power unit but the budget says I can cut the price into the $600-700 range vs. the $1000-1200 range for a tow a long unit. Will the t 3 point...

I have a 96 chevy silverado that the clock on the radio began staying on all the time. even when the keys are out of it door closed. I don't drive it that often it is used more as a farm truck so the battery drains down with this. what I have been doing is pulling the fuse for it and it goes...

I have a three point log splitter that I built. It is crude and rude but beats swinging a sledge and wedge. I used it on my old tractor since that was sold I have not used it. my tc 40 does not have rear remotes I know it would be a pain but if I bungee the control valve in a open postion and...

anyone ever used a compact tractor to pull a small 4 row planter for corn before? would a 40 horse tractor do it?

Are they worth it. We have been tossing the idea around of adding a wood stove inside. would it be better and less mess to add a whole house (and barn heat) source outside with a word burning stove. I have seen several go up around here but have not talked with anyone who uses one. I know...

I am building a tool shed. How thick of a concrete pad do I need. It will only be used for garden tools and foot traffic, maybe a potting area for the garden. the structure is made of wood. Last question should I use sand or gravel under the pad before I pour

one half of my barn is gravel and not a pad. I would like to finish the other side with concrete. I first need to get this approved by the banking finance department of the family (my better half) the way I calculated I would need just over 10 yards to pour a 47 by 14 foot pad. I know that...

I have finally had time to look in to the small leak of anti-freeze that started a few weeks after I had the dealer replace the block plug with a new style plug. I think I know why it kept leaking. It seems when they pulled the hose off the old plug they put a small pinleak hole in it. I can...
