    Clamp On Pallet Forks

    I had the Titan ones and always was apprehensive when I went to use them. Got tired of worrying and got a QA set up for doing it correctly. Got a few other implements as well. I should have got the QA set up years before…

    B26in Dump Trailer

    I use my dump trailer that is 14’ for my L series. I have two rear Jack stands on the trailer and only load/unload with it attached to a 3’4 ton truck. The other thing I did was weigh the tongue and make a location for the center of the rear tires so I know when the load is where I want it. I...

    Box Blade - Top Link or Not for New Tractor?

    Get TnT and you will thank me later. If you are going to have stuff added…get both valves and rams now. Total pain in the ass otherwise.

    Pretty much guaranteed our power never goes out

    when the power is out the gas stations can’t pump gas…around here anyways. Also, this damn state has basically made it impossible for commercial businesses to meet air quality standards to get a permit for one.

    Photo shoot anything lately? Random Photo Thread

    Took this a couple days ago skiing at Big Sky. We skied down the backside of that peak up there. Pucker factor was 10+…but at 67 I did well. My son and niece were with us and they looked better than me…

    Should we stop using Red and Tacky type of grease?

    Been using that stuff for decades on tractors and trucks. Not one problem…regardless of temps. Gotta love the internet. Seems everything I do, say, think, believe, use, wear, drive and most everything I own is wrong, lame, bad for the earf, mean, not fair to the animals and anti everything...

    Oil Extractor Recommendation

    OP, I have a manual/air extractor that works great…but the best thing I have found is this. It gets used a lot and has been very handy. Not cheap…

    Photo shoot anything lately? Random Photo Thread

    Went sailing the other day off Santa Cruz. This is the end of the pier being repaired. several hundred feet fell off, with a restaurant on it, last year and went south, literally. They are stabilizing the remain part.

    Welder Advice

    Go on Cyberweld and look around…great prices and equipment. Look at Miller 211 for some capabilities…good rig too. Not cheap but should do everything you want and has settings to help you learn.

    Electric Vehicles. Can anyone make this make sense?

    And this is the real problem out here. They have mandated away under 25hp already…and ALL ICE in ten years. They have some screwball rules about eliminating trucks and railroad diesel as well….yeah right…that will end well.

    Electric Vehicles. Can anyone make this make sense?

    Out here, hydro is NOT considered renewable nor clean energy….stupid. We had the largest solar plant…already too expensive to operate and is currently returning to dust… We have 40 million people…and no plans on how to deal with how to actually keep the lights on…

    Electric Vehicles. Can anyone make this make sense?

    Welcome to our Hell OP. CA has had grid/supply issues for decades and it is getting worse. We also have the insane set of mandated policies that will continue to make it impossible to continue on the current course. No ICE vehicles in the next decade and the already prohibition on gas...
