What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

How wide is that plow? I'm kind of looking at one for my B2650 but not sure how I like all that width and weight out front, but I guess it's ridding on the ground so you're really doing "work" with it up in the air like a bucket.

Our little private road needed some attention. Wheel tracks were worn in just enough to create a little berm between the wheel tracks and ditches, which is often the beginning of decline of gravel roads. There was plenty of gravel at the edges of the road so I decided to break out the old Leinbach backblade that’s older than I am (that’s old) to windrow gravel back toward the center of the road. Yes, I can pull it back to center with the boxblade but the backblade works better.

Have to watch traffic and what you’re doing to the road. Today, a crew from the power company was running new lines to service an adjacent development under construction. They had one lane shut down in front of our road with flaggers controlling traffic. Didn’t speak to them due to the noise of each other’s equipment but they saw me and made it clear they’d stop traffic for me for a bit. That was nice and of course I thanked them.

For grading, hydraulic toplink and sidelink is nothing short of amazing for an old guy like me that’s turned turnbuckles for decades.

I think that settles it, I need to add tilt to my hydraulic top link set up and use that second remote I added!

The high torque m18 is an absolute beast of an impact. We use em all the time at work, love it.

Siesta, what would probably work easily is to us a two bottom plow to form your terrace. That's how they get maintained once they are built by Natural Resources Conservation Service, except they use a 5 bottom plow.

Interesting. Thanks.
I do have 3 plow row cultivator, it's not offset like a typical 2 bottom plow. But has similar type share(blade), I refer to them as a shoes. I guess I could cut a line and then use the grading blade across it.

You know I'll figure this out once I finish the last swale, lol, that's how it usually works out.

Homestead makes some nice stuff and they have great customer service.

Gave my L3130 a colonoscopy, as recommended by @North Idaho Wolfman due to my glide shift trans not responding well to the hydraulic fluid I had in it.

Also bought it a new friend for it. Just arrived before dark today, so no time to unbox. 48" from Titan attachments. I know there are "bigger/better", but I am a light duty user, and I have CNC plasma and several welders if I decide to beef it up or add width.

Looks well made to me!
