You don't know what you are talking about. Killing bacteria can be done at much lower temps. The extra time is what does it.

I know plenty. Congratulations on buying one years ago. We all know since it's yours it's the best. You are a complete tool

Got about 10 stumps done. It works well. It was eating right through a big rock before I noticed. Kept right on going trough the stumps after

I used it today. Just like a bunch of other people that bought them. That proves you have no idea what you are talking about.

Fill the tires and get a ballast box if you plan on using the loader at all. Others will say just use an implement you already have, but a dedicated weight box will be much smaller and more maneuverable. Bright flood lights on magnets attached to the rops so you can point them forward and...

Bar tires are the only reason we can mow our property with a zero turn. Was going to sell it before changing to them. Now we never lose traction

Get into some wild parsnips and you will be wishing you ran naked through poison ivy instead. I didn't even know about it until I got it

I ordered mine on the 8th of April. It says it was loaded on a truck the 6th of May. Should be here this week

Then buy a used tractor from before they were put on. It will cost you basically the same price as a new one because of other people like you. Obviously, you can't handle the the complexity and will worry every time you use it. Besides one specific kubota and some of the LS tractors, I haven't...

There is no reason for the 37. Our 27 has gone through every piece of wood we have tried for a few years now. Over 20 full cords so far with no issues

I have had a 261 with an 18 inch bar for 6 years now. It's a nice saw. I found a used echo cs-7310p with a 28 inch bar that I don't think had a full tank ran through it for $700. The sthil has been used for trimming since. I love the longer bar. The extra weight doesn't bother me at all compared...

You have no idea what you are talking about. These are just your guesses and they are wrong.

Unless he just changed his engine oil it wouldn't look like that. Even if he did it would most likely be darker than that already.

I like 4 years of wood minimum. Oak takes 3 years to dry fully and I want an extra years worth incase something happens to me and can't cut for a year. If I were to die my wife has plenty of time to figure out how to get wood before she would be heating with propane.

It went up 50 dollars since yesterday. I'm not worried. I'm sure I'll get it for what I paid. If it goes up more after that I'll just have a higher resale value when I'm done with it in a few years.

Then unstack, stack in trailer, unstack and stack in house. That sounds horrible to me lol. I put one tote in my garage at a time. Cats stay in there to take care of any mice that come inside with the wood. I've got a lot of hobbies but stacking wood isn't one of them.

I bought the shorter one and it worked great. Added pat's quick hitch and had to get the longer one

I ordered one. We will see how long it takes to be delivered. I have over 50 stumps right now that will need to be done plus I'm not finished cutting yet. 20 years of trees encroaching in into the yard and I'll be clearing a large food plot that this will help with.

Those tractors are going to struggle lifting round bales or pallets with much weight. Plus it's 40,000 thousand for something that isn't going to work well for your intended purpose using the FEL. No way I would buy either

We have put well over 20 full cord of cherry, elm, oak, and ash through our 27 ton champion. Haven't found anything that it hasn't gone through. 11 second cycle time on the 27 vs 16 seconds for the 34 and 37 is huge.

I use this magnetic 18 inch stick. I go down about 5 logs at a time then start bucking it up. I don't think there is a faster way

The bags come in multiple thicknesses. The 3 mil are very thin. I don't use those. 4 mill is pretty durable. The 5 mill is nice for meat with cut bones.

Why do you need to raise it up? I have the same 4 foot concrete mesh in 6 foot circles around the trees. Deer will not jump into something they can't get out of.

Don't buy green chains get the yellow. The green is a supposedly a safer chain but I think it sucks.

I do not. I've never covered my stacks before, and everything has always been fine. I don't care about the rain hitting it because I stay 3+ years ahead now. The only benefit of a cover on the totes to me would be keeping some of the leaves and dust from landing in them.

Cut the other side. This is how I fill the totes and use the cut out to hold them in. My wife has slight ocd and stacks it all perfectly. She does most of the splitting. I just take care of the big pieces usually. so I'm pretty lucky with that

This is the method I go with also. It's so much easier. I had 48 totes full before we started burning this fall. All separated by species. Ash, oak, cherry, and elm. I bring 1 tote inside my garage at a time and use a cart to bring it in the house from there

I have the 110. It gets used a lot. Wouldn't go back to the other style

I've been running the toyo open country at3 on my Ram 2500 for 2 winters now. They have held up well. Night and day difference from the stock Firestone tires that were compleat garbage. I will never buy another tire from them or a vehicle with them on it.

Do not feed them anything but dog food and treats. No people food ever. My dogs never beg for anything we are eating because they know they won't get it. Never let them jump on people. Hard knee to the chest over and over until they get it. Make them understand you are the boss. If they...

My ck4020 is 63 inches wide with r14 tires. Our land is all hills also. It feels pretty stable without spacers. I've thought about adding 3 inch spacers but haven't because I have a 5' brush cutter and a 5' tiller

It has both catalytic combustor and a secondary combustion system. My old smaller stove just had the secondary. It's one of the epa stoves that qualify for a tax rebate

Woodstock progress hybrid woodstove installed yesterday. Finished 3 break in fires through it before bed and should be able to heat it up to the higher range today

That weight rating is for 2 feet behind the hitch pins. I think it will lift it easily. I have the same tractor. My 3 point hitch with forks lift the heaviest totes of wet firewood easily where the front end loader rated at few hundred pounds higher capacity will barely lift it.

My flood lights are mounted with magnets. In the woods I flip them under. Forward for driving and using the front end loader. Backwards for snowblowing

He refused to debate it and was still able to type out the whole list at the same time. That's talent

If that's who I was going to vote for, i would have just stayed home and had a couple beers. Not wasting my time to throw away my vote like that. Care to list all the high ranking officials in the government under libertarian party?

You can't separate the 2 because culture war is all they are about. Making 95% of the people change so 5% of the countries feelings don't get hurt gets you voted out of office. As it should

Have any room over there for the rest of them?

This guy rubs one out to biden and kamala nightly. There will be no answer from him just bitching

Why are you people still here then? If it's going to be so bad leave now while you still can. Everyone will be broke or dead in a few months, according to your news that you are addicted to. The less of you people around the better

Dropped a tote in the garage now that winter has actually arrived

That isn't even close to what this discussion is about though

I ordered the blower with the hydraulic chute because I knew I wanted that and it was coming in the winter. Needed it usable right away. My tractor came with 2 remotes in the back. I added Multiplier from summit to use a 3rd. I have one set for my hydraulic top link and can switch between the...

The deflector is the one that came with it. The pins on the hydraulic cylinder are the same size as what came on the blower.

With spruce trees on one side and the woods on the other of most of my 650' driveway, i don't have any option but to blow it into the woods.

The traffic is always going to be at a stop in rush hour in road construction. Did you watch any of the videos posted on here? It's truly unbelievable that people can't understand this

I couldn't bring myself to pay $550 for the hydraulic deflector from the dealer last year when I purchased the blower. After one winter clearing the driveway at our place, that seems to always be windy, I had had enough of that. Bought a 2 inch bore 6 inch stroke hydraulic cylinder from tractor...

That isn't even close to how it is supposed to work. It means every other car goes at the end of the line. It's not hard to figure out but for some it is. It's not for when there are 20 cars on the road. It's for reducing the accordion effect on a long line of traffic.

I just went through the paver blocks at menards and found something 4 inches tall and that looked like it would be a good fit. My 2.5 ton floor jack would lift up a side but it took everything it had. I'd lift up one side and drop it back down on a runner that was at least 8 feet plus how ever...

40 foot 1 trip container delivered. They were able to get lined up and backed in where I wanted with the container mule. Needed to jack it up to place posts underneath. Then I was able to push with my kioti and roll it back the last couple feet. It's now leveled and ready to fill

Was it parked outside with moisture in it? It might be a block in the trailer. This has a lot of fine material plus some moisture and ended up extremely hard after i half assed spread it as it was getting dark

How people can't understand this is truly unreal. It's the damn law here and people still think they know better and try to block the lane. I don't take that well

Did you check with a screw driver or a wrench?

Learned my lesson on not finishing what I started in the winter. It got to 16 and 20 degrees the last 2 nights and it was frozen solid. Bottom tines on my grapple dragged back and forth for hours to break it up

Some gravel to put down next to the garage

Good thing you all have the option to pack up and move out of the country. Good luck to you

I also have the CG56. I'm not sure you could break it if you tried

A twisted shackle is a safer option than the twisted clevis. Rated at a much higher load because the pin isn't free to move around. Make sure the pin diameter is close to the size of hole in your draw bar also

The wood wall is nearing completion. 29 totes in the first row and 22 in the second for a total of 51 so far

I have had the Vac110 for about 3 years now. It has had no issue and we have used it a lot. When you order bags go with the 4mm over the 3. Much more durable for not much of a price difference.

I don't feel sorry for this guy at all and no one else should either. Sometimes lessons are expensive

Really liking the 3 point pallet forks. The weight on the back is much more stable driving on uneven terrain. Rated to 2,000 lbs and $200 on Amazon. I think they would be worthless without the hydraulic top link though

I have some that are just thrown in there using the cut out as a gate to hold the pieces in. Once I seen how much wood I was going to be bringing home it's getting stacked again. I don't think I have enough totes to fit it all.

Worked on the pile after work last night and today. Finished the cutting and have 5 totes filled. One elm and the rest ash

Spring time ramps and fiddleheads around here. I don't care for mushrooms. This is Alfredo with chicken and grilled ramps. Fiddleheads boiled then fried in a cast-iron.

We just got the tractor last fall and switched to the totes this spring, so I'm not sure how many we will use. I'd guess around 15 a year. Probably 4+years.

We have 64 totes. 38 full 26 empty. Hoping to have them all full soon. Managed to cut up about half of it this afternoon

Helped my friend take care of a bunch of dying ash. Took home 5 16' dump trailers. Got them stacked up after work this week

No I didn't. I bought from a dealer that has been around almost a decade and got a better price than anywhere else. You bought specifically for price. Bad choice. :cry:

And they can put him on the list. Exactly like they did. He can cry all he wants is not going to help. They will get to it when there customers are helped.

What in your mind makes you think you should be anywhere besides the bottom of the list? I would never buy a tractor from a dealer that didn't prioritize the customer that bought from them. You saved $500 by going somewhere else and this is what happens. Quit bitching about it, this is 100% on...

Most LiFePO4 batteries are rated to be used down to 0° F. You aren't supposed to charge them under 32° though. I have 4 of them in my boat and have never had an issue with them. I live on a pool of the Mississippi River with a nuclear power plant that keeps it ice-free all winter. I've used it...

I've stacked them without a problem in the short term. I have basically no flat land on my property, besides my driveway, so I can't store them doubled up. I would never leave the top uncut. That sounds horrible.

Cut a couple elm that were in the way of a trail I'm making. Every time I split it I'm reminded why I don't take many down. Some of it split ok. Most of it sucked.

If planning on getting a loader/ loader grapple combo you are going to be seriously disappointed with the lift capacity of the bx. You might not think you need a grapple but you need a grapple :ROFLMAO:

It might sound dumb but black Friday was the best deals I found when looking. Kioti was giving a free front end loader on the CK series. That's 5,000 right there. I'm not sure how the other manufacturers run their 0% financing but you couldn't do both the free loader and 0% through them...

While it wasn't my top choice of splitters, the 27 ton has been good to us so far. We have only had it for 1.5 years now, though. With it on sale and a 20% off coupon at home depot it was just over $800. Couldn't touch a used one at that price at the time and could probably get close to that if...

I got some cherry pulled out of the woods today while the wife split some ash.

About 2.5 years of wood split. I have another half years in logs ready to cut. Would like to be 5 years ahead before the end of winter but we will see.

It's surprising how many people are totally clueless about this. Way too many idiots in this world. You bought your tractor from farmers Walmart and expect top tier service. Again dumb. If you bought a tractor from a dealer you could have asked if pick ups and delivery's were included. You...

I hated our memory foam mattress from the day we got it. If you sleep warm they are a furnace.

That guy had turf tires. Change to bar tread and never get stuck or slide again. Most people don't know any better

The battery most likely doesn't have enough juice. If it's a new battery check the connections

A 3D electric fence doesn't look like it would actually work but it does. I've only had 1 deer get in my garden or corn plot since starting using it 4 years ago. Deer are around it pretty much every day. For trees I use 5' concrete mesh wrapped in a 6' circle around the trees when they are...

What you are looking for is called woven ground cover. I've had it in my garden year round for the last 4 years. It still works as it should. Most weed barrier will not hold up to the sun. It will be falling apart in months

The little 3 liter diesel is less. You aren't putting that in a 3/4 ton

No, it will not if you aren't an idiot. Just because the machine will make super tight turns doesn't mean you have to. In the area that you would do that make a 3 point turn and you will have no damage. 2 extra seconds to turn around is well worth the change in traction the bar tires provide...

We bought a new place and brought our zero turn with from our previous house that had a completely level yard. It felt like a death trap at the new place with everything being hillside. Multiple times sliding down into the woods led me to look for a better way. Changing out the turf tires for...

There is still a rebate for a free loader from kioti on the DK series. Your cash discount is the same 6500 you are paying for the loader. When I bought my ck on their black Friday sale, which was a free loader, I was still able to get the cash discount also.

This tree was to close to the garden and had to go

I have a 56 inch Stinger Attachments Compact Clam Grapple. It weighs 360 lbs. The 66 inch weighs 395. I like the double lid

Sounds like an expensive pain in the .... why not go with r14?

For people still using the tarp method I use pieces of wood with a screw hook inserted on one end. Hang these from the tarp grommets. This will keep the tarp pulled down tight in the wind instead of blowing everywhere. I use the heavy duty tarps. This one is on its second year and still looks new.

Your forks are longer and almost twice as heavy as that stump bucket. 318 lbs to 160 lbs. I'm probably going to get that one eventually since I can't bring myself to pay $1,000+ for an oversized shovel either. I'm waiting for it to go on sale.

I've sprayed many trees with this setup. Large tank with an attachment for garden hose in the back of the truck. 12v pump running to my pressure washer. Have someone drive slowly by the trees as I spray while standing in the bed. Fast, easy, and cheap(assuming you already have a pressure...

Just imagine leaving one place because of the problems, then voting for the same people that caused all the problems in the first place. That is the why you will never be able to reason with them. They just don't get it

I guess the only option you have is to sell it off if you can't hook up a battery charger. Maybe it's time to start looking at nursing homes instead of tractors?

I use what's called "The perfect stick". I'll walk back and forth down my pile of logs doing a bunch at once. Then cut them up. Super easy. They are $25

I hate running boards. I won't put them on my ram 2500. When the wife complains I tell her "a woman with less miles on her wouldn't have a problem climbing up, so don't make me decide which one to trade in." She doesn't find it very amusing

I didn't go back and read every post you have on here like you did but from this thread all I can tell you is

I'll take "people that don't know how radiators work" for 500 Alex.

I looked on the marketplace, and the lowest price was $500 for something with no paint left on it and no rippers. Everything else was much more. Seems like people think their used equipment is made of gold. I was looking at used tractors around here and bought new for 2 thousand less after tax...

I have a paved driveway, so don't think I'll get a ton of use from a box blade plus a neighbor with one I can use whenever needed. The ability to tow my splitter in the woods on the back of the ballast box seems helpful also. I don't know what it would weigh once filled. I'm assuming it would be...

Kioti's free front end loader on CKs black Friday deal was to good to pass up. We now own a ck4020. The r14 tires are being filled with rim gaurd but need more weight in the rear to use the loader to its maximum potential. Would the titan attachments ballast box filled with concrete combined...
