Wow…that will be a great set up. Well done. 👍

I don’t use / turnover much fuel so I use Hotshots EDT + Winterizer (all in one) and you can buy in small dose sizes so I don’t waste fractions of a bottle. Plus it’s from THE great state. 😉 get your greasin’ done before the snow flies.

I think the original post had a typo. I think they meant strawberry scented hand cleaner. 😉

To me it seems like some cheap drainage…maybe to get water away from a building but someone not want the pipe in the yard to mow around or have to move…seems strange drain pipe that close to surface. I am assuming it freezes where you are in NJ, no? Drain pipe should either go to ground on top...

Good day. sounds like it’s just about a done deal…congrats, almost. couple more things I would offer: I have a BH92. I did not need it when I bought it, and I dont need it now. I foresee using it in the future as a hydraulic arm and shovel though. However I wanted it and in my situation I...

I dont have Catawba brand grapple, but I do have both styles. 1. LP clamshell (originally I got for use with BX, now is mainly used with my B, but have used on occasion with MX). IMO it is Great for picking up straight logs 2/3 or smaller diameter than the grapples opening size. It’s also...

I agree very much with @McMXi about trying operating first. When I went to buy the L6060, I came home having ordered the MX as that was my spousal unit’s preference for her visibility over the hood (I did not see a difference and would have liked to have the Mid PTO option to later add a...

I might be slightly biased😉…but I just glanced at the site and saw there is incentive on an MX thru September. I did not look at the other models I was more shocked at the price of the L you mentioned and MX. at a glance everything has gone up quite a bit since I picked mine up. also the item...

Yep…I don’t have same level of experience, but that has been my struggle so far with mine…departure angle and top link a real pain at hook up time…but it is nice to be able to trim to suit once attached. So far I have only used the cat 2 pin points but may well use the cat 1 locations depending...

I’ve found Nestwatch to be a pretty helpful site. (In a lot of cases they offer simple plans). The site has a lot of interesting info beyond just nest size and plans. It’s not the most intuitive, but lots of good comprehensive info...

That’s great. I put up a barred owl box early last year and I have no evidence they have moved in…although hear them regularly. That’s pretty neat you got video!

A few pics from past week in upper Great Lakes region…(I don’t believe my photography skills are kind to the beauty of of the landscape vs seeing in person)

It’d be hard for me to judge the pivot titty without have ample time to tweak it. 2 are better than one IME. 😉 snarky comments aside I think you are doing great with your skills / home made solutions. 👍

Enjoying the upper Great Lakes…

Good day. I don’t think anyone knows your situation but you. with that said: 0. Both brands you are considering make quality implements. 1. When I compare implements, i look at weight / dollar first, then quality of weld and paint (assuming similar construction and functionality) 2. I’d...
