Woohoo I bought my first attachment.

It's not much, but I'm excited anyway. I bought a 5 foot box blade made by Wallace Mfg. on Saturday for $269. I know it's not the heaviest built out there, doesn't have the nicest paint, but I think it will do the job for my little 22 hp. When the red paint fades off (which won't take long) I can paint it orange to match the Kubota. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Enjoy, should work fine. I keep thinking about painting my attachments but never quite get around to it. some of my attachments came from the fifties from my Dad's 8N and I don't think they've seen paint for 20 years.

That's about what I paid for my First Choice 60" box blade (actually $285, I think). I think I've seen one like mine for as little as $265 in southern IN last fall. I don't think I've seen the Wallace box blade but sure hope you'll be as happy with it as I am with mine. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

On a totally unrelated note, I thought I knew our state fairly well but have to admit total ignorance to the location of St. Anthony, IN. Could you tell me where it is and what's there?

Hi Gary. St. Anthony is in Dubois County about 8 to 10 miles southeast of Jasper. It's a small rural community where I grew up and plan to spend the rest of my life. Besides farming, the major thing in this area is furniture factories. Ferdinand, which is 5 miles south and a little west of my home is the home of Forest Park High School (my almamater). Forest Park just played Cass in the state championship. I know Cass isn't real far from Fort Wayne.

Let's see, Patoka Lake is 15 miles to the northeast, Lincoln State Park where Abraham Lincoln grew up as a boy is 15 miles to the south, and Huntingburg where the movies "A League of Their Own" and "Hard Rain" were filmed is 6 miles to the west. How's that for location? /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif
