When is an 18000.00 tractor not worth having

[edski]

However long it took you to till that area, I'd of spent twice as long trying to fabricate a 3 pt attachment to operate that Ryobi. /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif
Maybe using the boom pole, some pipe clamps, popcycle sticks, a couple of bungee cords and a roll of duct tape. Yeah...that's the ticket.

Good Point, tiller, tractor and FEL are in the big barn, right beside the area I was tilling. I would have been taken to the mental ward by the wife had I done that. But take pride, the area behind and beside the small barn got done today, and when I picked up all the tools, the little tiller went in the FEL

if you can come up with a plan for this, and find an engineer to make it, I will give it a shot. I have a vision of the little tiller hanging out in mid air. I am not much of a mechanical engineer, so fabricating will have to be done by someone else........your idea is well thought out though.

DannyD,
You're too kind.
I hope you realize that well thought out = same limited thought process used to "jury rig" every solution to a task. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
Except that I forgot to add lasers.
Needless to say, I think your $18K tractor is safe and worth keeping.

yep, sure do. lasers are one thing I would love to have. I need to learn to shoot a grade better anyway.

School of hard knocks, or in this case, flooding 101 is not getting it.

How much space do you have between the buildings.?
I have 2 buildings that are only 2 feet apart.

I plan on connecting them together in order to save on property taxes.

Have you considered this angle?

He didn't need a 3 point, the backhoe could have reached right up in between them sheds. Coulda mounted the 'tiller' handle bars on the hoe's bucket and that job woulda been a breeze.

 

[DannyD]

Now why did I not think of that................. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

 

[DannyD]

there is 3 to 4 feet of space. connecting them would mean the smaller one is now permanent and a taxing levy would be put on it. As it is now, NOT connected to the ground per say, it is portable, not taxed.
