It has always been my understanding that generally coarse threads are preferred in soft materials such as aluminum. Coarse threads will resist stripping or ”pulling” threads when over torqued compared to fine threads.

So far so good! When we cleaned it out before moving I could not see any rusting that would affect it. I also never cut any holes in the bottom of the culvert section for air flow but the type of fires and frequency of use seems to be working. I was basically given the culvert section which...

Beautiful spring day here in Central Wisconsin. Years ago I put together a fire pit/ring using a culvert section and retaining wall blocks. I did mortar the blocks and my mortar job was , how should I say, "sketchy" at best. :ROFLMAO: I now own a 12 x 12 canvas style outfitters tent which I...

Without getting my owners manual out for my late model B7100 HST that sounds right in the ball park. The heaviest 3pt implement I have used on mine is the King Kutter standard duty domed 4ft rotary cutter which depending on source is listed at about 425 lbs. My tractor never had trouble...

Looking at your 3pt picture it looks as if your top link is a aftermarket. Perhaps it is not the same length as OEM. I have a late model B7100 HST with OEM top link with it being handy so if you need a length I can measure it for you . Your check chains/turnbuckles look different than the...

I took the liberty of cropping your photo and adding a blue line to show where the front steering stop bolt hits the casting on the front axle.

Others will verify but there are two different runs of B7100 HST's. I believe yours is the first run. Do you have 4 or 6 lug bolts for the front wheels? 6 lug is the second run. I would guess that is a reason your finding two different manuals. After looking closer it does look as if yours...

I think that 132 lbs is the bucket weight. Loaders net weight 478 lbs according to Tractor data.com. kubota-la344-specs-review

This looks like a good resource that should answer many of your questions? pb-pp-eng.html This looks to be the rule that would pertain to you cruising north into Canadian waters. Reporting exceptions Foreign national boaters If you enter Canadian waters, you are not required to present...

Typically King Kutter's XP series of implements will be painted orange while what they call their "standard products" are going to be painted their yellow. I believe perhaps the professional series might also be available in a green but normally again , in yellow.

I would guess the 5 footer King Kutter is the XP series? If so, they are designed to fit better on sub compacts with a "limited cat 1" hitch. I purchased the 5 footer XP King Kutter as it was a better fit on my B7100 than a standard cat one implement. I run it on my L2501 without issues but I...

My local fleet farm , when paying cash, always uses the pen to check for counterfeit bills. When they give me my change I make them verify and use the pen on the bills they are giving me! lol. :ROFLMAO: I am not sure they see the humor in that!

I would also say this. The type of business I was in had somewhat of an impulse buy element to it, with prices for items that cost several hundred dollars. I always thought that the sales generated by accepting CC's offset any possible fees I owed to Master card. Sales I probably would not...

At the time , at least in Missouri, I could not "add" a extra fee for a customer using a card but I could offer a discount if paid by cash or check. I know, a silly play on words right? I do not remember if that was state law or a rule imposed by Master Card on me as a merchant. I am not sure...

Things might have changed but when I was in business (1980 to 2002) the rate that I was charged for credit card transactions was 3%. That rate varied by the annual amount that I would run thru the credit card company. I was a small business and averaged about 375k to 475k in annual sales. I do...

Ron, There are many more dimensions and component differences to the equation other than WB and Length and width. A 56.6 CID engine compared to the L2502's 100.5 CID for example. I would assume, yes I know, lol , dangerous to assume, but the L2502's engine is going to weigh more. Tires...

Good luck on your hunt! Decades ago I hunted turkey down at my Missouri land but never took it very seriously . After buying my Wi land and working on decent habitat I hunted again out of a box blind I built. This nice tom was the first for me and taken out of the blind. Something special...

Thank you! It was a fun day for sure. I also took some video of the action. Sorry for the shakes and wind noise. I do not have a 10k dedicated video camera with a wind proof sock over a decent mic but did the best I could. This was after he knocked the decoy off the mounting pin. I think it...

Crazy opening spring turkey hunt! Not a very nice spring day, rainy , cold, windy but my buddy and I planned to meet at my land and hunt from my box blind. Figured it would be more of a visiting day than anything else. Birds really where not talking, guess due to the weather. My buddy had...

I sourced the seed from Shooting Star out of MN and Prairie Moon out of Wisconsin. Both companies will collect seed and sell you seed that was collected to close proximity of where it will be planted. I guess this keeps the genome of the seed more consistent to what was native to the area...
