    who has the most hours on their Kubota BX?

    515 hours on my BX24. New in 2008. It’s a real work saver on our 19 steep acres. BXpanded accessories have extended the tractors usefulness. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro

    Implement & Gravel Size?

    I have a 1/2 mile long driveway with a 21 percent grade. I have a BX24 and a Land Pride grading scraper. I have learned to use 1 1/4” gravel.

    DR Power 3 Point Hitch String Trimmer

    Will do. I only have a couple of trees and posts that my trimmer has to deflect around. If the trimmer was rubbing against a chain link fence a lot of the time the ring would experience wear. I thing it would need occasional repair or reinforcement. I will post an update after I use the trimmer...

    DR Power 3 Point Hitch String Trimmer

    I ordered the 3 point hitch string trimmer because I have about 3 weeks of string trimming every year on my property. I am 75 now and I want to minimize my time swinging my heavy duty brush cutter. The pallet arrived at Yellow Freight in Portland and the cardboard part was crushed but everything...

    Had some gravel drop spread

    I have a 2200' driveway, parts are 20% grade. My neighbor and I rented a huge vibrating roller for $800. For our steep driveways this is a necessity. Only needs to be done once every 10 years.

    Poor man's logging winch

    I already thought of the bucket of damp clay. I was going to put the outriggers on the ground. Maybe better to leave them close. I am going to align the tractor with the pull and use a snatch block if necessary. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
