Got the wood shed topped off, 1-1/4 loads with the 4×8 trusty h.f. trailer

Very nice!

"I used to live in the Bryan/College-Station area where the water was so soft you could never feel like you got all the soap off. Yuck.)…." I get that, we always tell customers that "if the there is no soap suds left on you, then the soap is off." And also to "use less soap then they are used to"

I dont want to stray too far off topic here but I want to clear a few things up that may be beneficial to you or other members that read this. First off I don't work for Culligan, and at least in my area they are one of the biggest contributors of customers to our small bussiness becuase they...

Unrelated to the thread but They make ph neutralizers for low ph they use calcite to brings the ph up. The calcite dissolves thus bringing the ph up I work for a water treatment company and could get you more info if you are interested.this would make ur life easier for fixtures and pipes in the...

I You are not wrong, I work for a h20 treatment company and well water can vary substantially withing just a couple miles.

That's awesome

My "walmart" light bars are holding up just fine after 3 years on the tractor. The one on the truck is going on 3 years as well. The truck isn't garaged it gets left out in all kinds of weather. Granted you can't buy the ones I have anymore but they where under 40$ each with the harnesses...

Nice addition to the family. I know the old land dump feature all too well, thankfully most of the "buried treasure" on our 5 acres is in a relatively small area but i have pulled above ground treasures AKA, a few washing machines tvs lawn mowers etc our of our wooded section.

"58, that is hardcore" It's really not that bad

To the earlier battery question by the OP I rotated the tires on my ram 1500 today 4 tires 5 22mm lugs each torqued to 130ftlbs (I use a t wrench everytime for final torqing) . and it used barely 1/4 of a 3 AH batterythat was off and then zipped back on . I know that isn't much of a test but...

Thanks, that was one of my first projects when we bought the place and I learned quickly its a tad too small, but way better then nothing like I grew up with. I've got more hardwood then I know what to do with at the moment, as a guy down the road was building a house last year and I got cords...

Started moving wood front the front "seasoning pile" to the woodshed in the back. My father has my 4x8 trailer, so just used the bucket to transport. It's slower then loading up the trailer but I can put the FEL right at waist height for loading and unloading so not nearly as much bending over...

That's a tough one, I don't own a lot of "fancy stuff" not that, that should matter. I have however clawed, and fought for everything I do have. Albiet it isn't much. I am hesitant to borrow stuff because even though I am responsible and careful, stuff happens and I ussually don't have the...

I used 1"×18 for boom amd 1"x16 for curl, but I used dual cylinders for both. And as NIW said you NEED a subframe it is not an option. Even with 1" pistons the loader will lift scary/damaging amounts with the correct geometry. I know my build is a lesson in "how not to weld" but it details...

"except the Bud Light ones. Now I find unopened ones 🤣" Well played

Lol yes I would be south west from you,

Just do it lol they are only going up in price

Hudson River, that's in my backyard, but I'm up in orange county. I didn't realize you where that close I like other suggestions of gently used higher end or a basic low$ new, so long as ot doesn't get too battered it could always be resold

Nothing wrong with ryobi for occasional use, their tools (ie 1/4" mpacts and 1/2" drills) tend to be a little bulkier but that ussually is not an issue for a "weekend warrior" they also come from the same parent company as many others including ridgid and I believe milwakee they just have...
