We had a weekend without rain so I was able to shred about 25 acres of pasture and use the new Woods land plane on the ranch road. First, while I struggled with decision regarding a cab or open station tractor, I'm so glad I choose the cab. Inside the cab I was nice and cool, enjoying the music in the background and kept the bugs at bay while mowing at night.

This is the project thus far. It rained for a few days after the first few drags so I'm hopeful the dirt will wash off and leave the top layer of rocks. I'll make a few more passes once things dry out. It certainly make a big difference.

Nice job, how long is that road. Looks to be a good distance. It seems the only way you can go wrong with a cab is if you are constantly in the woods with low hanging branches. Other than that the cab wins

Thanks. The road is about 1600' in length. I have a lot of trees to trim up but for now I just try to stay clear.
