    DIY Concrete stain

    I’m looking to stain my workshop foundation. I have acid stained my home’s basement and garage floors…looks great, but don’t want to spend the $$ for that on a shed foundation wall. I have used a mixture of 50/50 of used motor oil and diesel on trailer decks for years and it works great...

    Sawmill Trailer build

    I am contemplating building a trailer to mount my bandsaw mill on. I ran across a deal on some 3” C Channel 1/4 “ thick. I was planning on using the channel for the long main beams as well as the cross members. I’m assuming it would be sturdy enough. The mill and track itself weighs less...

    XJ2025 3rd Function or Diverter?

    Has anyone installed a true 3rd function or a hydraulic diverter valve on an XJ2025H to run a grapple? If so, what brand did you go with? Did you have any issue with fittings matching up? Seems like I remember hearing LS uses British Pipe Thread fittings on some tractors. Thanks,

    Leinbach Carryall

    Has anyone ever heard of “The Leinback Line” 3 point carryall? I found an old one and don’t know anything about them. It looks and feels really heavy built. If I can modify it to fit my quick hitch I may buy it. Sorry for the bad photo.

    Anyone build a carryall frame?

    I can‘t locate a used carryall frame within 200 mile of me. Plus none of the implement dealers have anything new in stock. Has anyone built their own frame? This may give me a good excuse to buy that welder I’ve always wanted. If so, share some photos or advice. Thanks in advance.

    DIY Carryall question

    I recently was given a golf cart utility bed. I thought it would make a great starting point for a carryall for my compact tractor. I need to use some angle iron to weld up a frame like a factory carryall. Does anyone know what size the factory ones are? I’m assuming 2” angle by 1/4” thick. TIA

    XJ2025H ballast

    I’m contemplating recycling an old 3pt carryall into a counter balance / tool carrier. By the time I add some concrete, treated wood floor and sides for the box, the frame and the typical tools, chains, etc, I’m guessing about 675#, plus both rear tires are filled. I’m guessing that should be...

    XJ2025 Mid mount mower questions. I picked up my new to me 2020 XJ2025 a couple weeks ago and this week I found a used MMM for it. I finally got around to installing it today and mowed with it. It cuts much better than my old worn out RFM. However, I have a few questions for those of you...
