Now look at the fence

Many hours of thorn bush battling and it reappears! Not to mention some blood and many, many cuss words /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

Re: A hard day complete, they exit

Nice looking truck tractor and land!

The good thing about the neglect of a previous owner is lots of seat time and fun projects.

Re: A hard day complete, they exit

Thanks,

Yes, it did give me plenty of tractoring. The last couple of days have bee more manual labor. My buddy came to help and it was really nice of him. This was brutal work. You literaly had to wade into some of the nastiest thorn bushes on earth with a chainsaw and then pull it apart by hand. They bushes were entwined in the fence so you couldn't rip it out until you cleared it all. The tarctor was rlegated to hourly pile collecting and moving duties.

When the day was done we both just about needed blood transfusions. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Our Husky saws also took a beating and got new chains today. The good news it we had about 1000 ft of fence that was bad and we have done about 600' of the worst stuff, the rest is easier. Also the other areas of the property don't have the bushes.

Re: A little more confident with the FEL

I bet you were moving real slow when you got close to that truck. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif I'm pretty sure about this because every so often someone will pull up to my farm and want to buy some chicken manure for their garden. I load all day into a spreader and never give it a thought but loading into a truck is a very slow extremely careful process for me. I would have to sell a lot of manure to pay for a scratch on a truck like yours.

Re: A little more confident with the FEL

Plus his duals sticking out make it harder for him to reach to the center of the box so he is dumping closer to the sides of the truck. It is a nice truck (ours use to look like that but being in construction we have a lot of people who work for us and don't think much about being careful around our vehicles). Later. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Re: A little more confident with the FEL

Just to keep that other baby looking nice a 4x4 on the ground at the right distance may just prevent the tractor from getting too close to the truck.
