Here is my stump removal team! The one on the left took out a 28" dia. oak in one bite. Didn't even need to start my BX

I'm not afraid to flip it at all, the rear 3pt hitch dirt bucket is an ideal flipover limiter, that's why i use it in this scenario /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif
In Holland, an above rear axle mounted trailer hitch was standard for years and years, to aid traction on small 2wd tractors with singel axle manure tankers etcetera.
It seems that in many places in the world, this was prohibited, but it gave the Dutch traction /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif
Nowadays with mfwd tractors, low drawbar is the norm, with a 2 or 3 ton tow eye load, to transfer the weight directly to the rear axle and aid front axle traction because of the lever effect of the below rear axle mounted pulling point.

I know this is off topic, but I'm intrigued when you say you're from Holland. This isn't meant to be picky; I'm just a big geography fan. When I look at the atlas, there is no Holland. It shows that North Holland and South Holland are two provinces (along with Friesland, Oberjessel, and the original Zealand, among others) in the nation called The Netherlands. Is this right? Do people tend to say they are from The Netherlands, from North Holland, South Holland , or just Holland? Seems like saying one is from Holland would be like one of us saying we're from Carolina or Dakota. Someone we're talking to would probably respond, "Well which one, North or South?" Just curious.

I can answer part of that. Renze can fill in the parts I missed. Holland IS the Netherlands but many people from there (like me) refer to it as being from "Holland" or also from "Nederland". It's kind of like saying your from "America" or "The United States". Most of us here say we're "American".
When I lived there as a kid (1952 to 1957) it was not as sectioned up as it is now and when you said you were from "Holland", there was no question where you were from or from what part of it. It is so small a country, it's comparable to size like that of Los Angeles or San Bernardino counties (in California). I can remember my parents refering to being from "Holland" as back then it was more know than being from "the Netherlands".
...even more off topic...
and yes, we used to wear wooden shoes over our regular shoes when it got muddy and shoshy outside and skated on the canals to school.

That's really interesting. And I do apologize to everyone for hijacking this thread. It sounds like the confusion between Britain and England. Great Britain supposedly includes England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland, but England sort of dominates the others. I've heard that Scotland, N. Ireland, Wales, even the Isle of Man, each now has it's own assembly. If this is true and those assemblies makes local laws, Does the British Parliament make both local English law and at the same time federal law for all of Britain, or is there a smaller assembly that handles local law for just England?
And at one time there was the Commonwealth which also included Canada, Australia, NZ, etc.
Again, sorry for hijacking the thread.
