    Utility trailers

    @Missouribound what size of tow vehicle do you have? If you have at least a 1/2 ton pickup, I'd be looking for a 7k GVWR trailer. I know the price will be higher, but you'll find more uses for it and will for sure feel safer. If you have a little SUV, stick with the smaller trailers.

    Halifax Nova Scotia Dealership - Re-stocking fee

    Just pay the "Oops, I didn't diagnose it correctly fee" and go on with your life. It happens!

    Auxiliary PTO

    Alot of older tractors didn't have loaders on them. The hydraulic pump that was installed, wasn't enough to move a loader around. When a loader was installed, they'd use a PTO mounted hydraulic pump to power it.

    Skid steer

    If you don't mind making a few modifications and spending some extra bucks on it, a Chinese unit can be had for relatively cheap, if you have any auctions nearby.

    Security Camera Battle

    Skeets, you could use regular security cameras that tie into the recording device with cabling. You can also get converters that will change the HDMI output to a coax connection that will allow you to run the video feed over a long distance, back to a monitor/tv/etc.

    3rd function not working

    Is it a true 3rd function or a diverter? One button or two on the joystick control?

    When the wind blows too hard

    I didn't read the article, but normally they'd shut them down when wind is up. You'd think the centrifcal force when spinning would help keep them upright. :cool:

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    You got it! Pit/hole, I'm taking the dirt out to be used elsewhere.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Spent a few hours digging a borrow hole. The top soil/brown dirt along the side is anywhere from 2-3' deep.

    I always stop by the liquor store and ask to help stock the beer cooler.

    Thread sealant that works

    Teflon hasn't been a problem for me and I'm assuming the tractor fittings are NPT, correct? Using the tape, only wrap a few times in the correct direction. Then press the tape into the threads to help keep it from getting pushed up the fitting. I use the cheap teflon tape too.

    I've seen as much as $0.70 difference in the nearest local "big" town.
