    Guy uses fake check to steal Massey tractor...recognize him?

    On a large ticket item like that $25-30 spent on a disposable Apple Airtag would have saved the day. https://www.cnbc.com/2021/04/22/apple-airtags-heres-everything-you-need-to-know.html

    Hydraulic filler cap won't stay seated

    Looking under the tractor seat was great advice. I removed the vent tube, squirted it inside and out with WD40 and blew out the gunk. After cleaning the gunk out of my beard I re-installed the vent tube. Coincidentally I had removed the plastic tool box from under the seat about a week...

    Hydraulic filler cap won't stay seated

    Odd behavior on my little Kubota B7300. The cap for the hydraulic fluid reservoir behind the seat and between the 3pt arms won't stay seated. The rubber o-ring is fine, the cap fits snug but shortly after using the tractor I'll find the cap sitting askew. Did some troubleshooting and found it's...

    We really are being spied on!!!

    That's what we do ... in the cloud plumb somebody else's email service with our own domain. That way we can switch backend email services without having to give everybody our new email address. I like tutanota.com .... for now. They are not free. PS Clarification:Tutanota IS free if you don't...

    Home-Built Hydraulic Post Pounder; Speeding up the freefall

    "Yeah I'm Free! Free fallin" In the last episode of this saga I was stumped by the problem of not being able to get the weight to drop with enough force to actually drive a fence post. After several trial and error attempts I've got it fine tuned and doing what I want. The problem boiled...

    We really are being spied on!!!

    This page does a good job of explaining what the ISP can and can't see when using VPN https://newtohr.com/can-your-isp-see-your-traffic-when-you-use-a-vpn/ Think about it. It would have to be so. Think of the gazillion technology workers working from home because of the CCP flu. Do you think...

    We really are being spied on!!!

    That doesn't work. You know how you can bring up the WiFi screen on your phone and see the list of wifi routers in range (btw those are just the ones broadcasting their SSID. There are of course a ton that aren't broadcasting their id), well Google and Apple have the world's largest database of...

    We really are being spied on!!!

    Oh yeah. All of your android and apple devices are listening to you, scraping data, compiling, packaging and reselling YOU. I've been waging asymmetrical warfare with big tech for some time now. It's a lot of work to protect your internet privacy these days. I'm a retired techie so as a...

    Home-Built Hydraulic Post Pounder; Speeding up the freefall

    Rick, I'd like to address the four hoses that you questioned. Here's the current setup: Firstly, I don't have rear remotes on this tractor but I do have a Front End Loader and associated spool bank. So. I tapped into Power Beyond (PB) port on the FEL spool bank. I got the idea reading the...

    Home-Built Hydraulic Post Pounder; Speeding up the freefall

    Okay. I thought I'd do a few drawing to show how this thing is currently plumbed. Also throwing in a couple of revisions. I know I'll need to acquire a few more pieces and parts so drawing it out helps in detailing what I need. I love living in "fly-over" country but getting parts can be a...

    Home-Built Hydraulic Post Pounder; Speeding up the freefall

    . . I've got a ton of fencing to do this spring that will involve setting several hundred wooden fence posts. I have a compact Kubota tractor ... that I have rear remote "hydraulic-enabled" by tapping into the PowerBeyond port on the FrontEndLoader spool valve: The specs say that the...
