Pontoons

[David Page]

Hey is there any of you that know how to attach pontoons to my tractor and an air boat fan blade to my PTO. Also thoughts on how to liquid dry my firewood. It has rained, is raining and is suppose to rain here in Maine. Thanks for your wisdom.

When winter arrives in a couple of weeks, the dry winter winds will help to dry out the wood.

Don’t need pontoons. Need bigger tires.

Mitas Tires dives into a pond to demonstrate the capabilities and benefits of tire flotation.

When the goal is to float a full-sized tractor in a deep pond, the first thing you do is the math.

Given your question it isn't wisdom you're looking for.

When you figure it out, David, be sure and let me know!

I might be able to run a mower over most of the place tomorrow, but it's going to look like hell with all the clumps of grass.

I have a section of my lawn I haven’t mowed for a month or more because it’s too wet. Yesterday, there was this big strange yellow thing in the sky, so I took advantage to mow the lawn before it rains again tonight. I resorted to mowing with my old Simplicity Sovereign 7116 instead of the Kubota because it is lighter and leaves less tracks in the lawn when it is wet. We are up to 12.67” of rain for the month of July. Areas around us less than 10 miles away have seen more than that. I definitely can use the pontoons when you get them figured out.

Not sure how well the old Fordson setup would work on water but, it sure goes on snow!

Just imagining the look on my buddies faces when I pull up to the ice huts or shacks in that beast.

Same here....

It was not too bad. I only had to use on the BX low range, 4x4 and the differential lock once.

I wonder what weight oil was in the engine on that Fordson tractor?
