    First one of the year

    I almost mowed over one today. Finally dry enough to mow the bottom of my hill and found one all curled up in the tall grass. Took it a while to stand up and then wobble off into the woods.

    What's cookin' boys?

    Fired up the grill. Biggest bakers I have ever cooked. 8 potatoes in a 10 pound bag from Costco 😲. Makes the ribs look small.

    Z421 Normal Operation --> Start jumping battery to starter --> No start at all

    My Z726 blew the main fuse a couple years ago and did the same thing. Fuseholder was under the seat with a $8.00 pink fuse blown. Replaced the fuse and all has been well since.

    Plasma cutting

    I think any type of dryer will interfere with airflow when added to the input side of a compressor. Probably gonna need an additional dry air feed. On a unit like that I wonder if providing a remote air feed will up the plasma output power because a built in compressor must draw quite a bit of...

    Plasma cutting

    With my Hypertherm 45 quality goes down as cut speed is increased past the voltage setting requirements. A 1/2 inch material cut by hand is tough to get perfect and takes quite a bit of air. My CNC monitors cut voltage and the cut is very square but dross can vary. Looks like they show an...

    RTV900XT Top Speed 17 mph

    My new RTV X tops out at about 18 mph in high on level ground. About 6 mph in low going up my hill. They are way underpowered compared to what they advertise. Was told it's normal for them. 25 hp ain't much for a UTV I guess.

    Vacuum sealing pew pew seeds

    I do not vacuum seal them. High vacuum can dislodge the bullets in the loaded ones and be a problem later. Vacuum can cause moisture trapped in them to boil and create gas also. Try sealing an empty magazine to see if the bags are being punctured. I find mylar bags are tougher also.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    My recommendation is don't buy a cheap auction machine. Most of them have low quality components and zero support. You get what you pay for. I went with the Huayee SHY (dealership model only) because it has top end components with a real Kubota engine from Japan and dealer support with a 3 year...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Sure did last fall but couldn't move it with the 8 ft root ball and drought hard soil. Finally yanked it out today and started filling the hole in

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Pulled a giant stump out. Used 4 snatch blocks and the 5000 pound winch to give it super power 😲.

    Got some advice for a “3 way” ……….(from my wife…;)…..(she thinks it’s better in the front, not the rear?)

    I asked the wife your question and her answer was " You want rear, it's gonna cost you. Go pay a hooker and hire a lawyer" 😲. There seems to be a price on everything anymore. Thanks for the entertainment.

    OK smart gardeners

    Put a camera pointing at it and you will know. Probably a squirrel looking for his burried nuts and finding a darn tater. Try Yukon golds someday. They're our favorites.
