Does a couple of barrels of starfish count as strange?

Makes a smelly but great addition to compost anyway.

It's strange to us!

not sure if this counts but used my loader to help set the canopy on another tractor I had installed rops on. loader didn't lift high enough so i chained a 3pt boom pole into the bucket to give more height and reach

About the oddest thing I moved with my loader is my gooseneck dumping gravel.

I tried to move a giant, muddy stump, but had to drag it instead. Just too big and heavy. I chained one stump in the bucket and hauled it to the burn pile.

The lighted cross is pretty neat installed on top of the barn each Christmas.

I got lazy jacking up my daughter's truck and used the loader again.

Probably the scarest was installing a 25 foot meter pole.

The culvert was the easiest.

Not all that strange really, but used the tractor to carry my broken down ktm up the road to the garage.

I though I was the only fool that picked up a flatbed trailer to dump gravel. I can get my 18'er almost vertical.

More power too you Lady.

Doing a little building & rearranging. Moved my fine trailer and the water tank that I'm building a new roller out of. :thumbsup::thumbsup:

I dug a stump out with my 3520 FEL. I guess its weird to use a bucket for that. It took awhikle and I had a nice big hole. i have two more to go so maqybe when I get around to it, God willing, this fall I'll post some pictures.

Working on my Sheep's Foot & Roller build today. First get the tank with sand in it out of the way. It may or may not be used for a roller.

Next move the old roller that will become a Sheep's Foot, around to the work area. It came up pretty easy even though it was still full of water. Easier to carry than to hook up and roll around.

I dont have a picture of it, but a few years ago when I was buying a used ride on mower, I used the guys kubota with the fel to carry the ride on mower by some chains, about half a mile, and put it in the back of my dads truck.

I have had all kinds of trouble finding an easy way of carrying rider mowers in the bucket. I finally came up with a good way. Put the bucket flat on the ground and back the mower into it. Run a chain from each side's bucket hook (you do have bucket hooks, right?) to each end of the front axle. Tip the bucket back and it picks up the rider mower. I know, it looks like a big tractor eating a little one, but it works.

I know we'd all like to see pictures the next time you do that kind of move.

I like your grapple/pipe grabber.

I keep several of my neighbors' (as well as my own) rider mowers going. I prefer bringing them home to work on them in most cases. When they have an issue that keeps them form moving on their own, the loader bucket seemed to be the way to go. That mower deck always was in the way. My method does the trick. And, if you have to get under it to work, push down on the joystick.

Other people have stopped me so they could get a picture of that operation. It does look pretty strange.

I have only done that once, I live in the city and this was at the sellers farm, he let me drive it. I do not have a tractor, although I wish I did.

He said he once lifted one from the stearing wheel, and it bent (I saw that tractor).

Sadly, about 7 years ago, I had to use my FEL as a hearse to haul my golden retriever to his final resting spot. Under a nice shade tree overlooking our pond.
