    MX6000 Oil Leak

    You and you alone are going to have to track it down. Start from the top, get a good flashlight! You will be amazed just how gravity will snake a drip of oil all kinds of ways down to the ground.

    So, who are the potheads out there?

    CBD has been shown in randomized studies in the past couple of years to be no better than placebo..but hey if you take it and you feel better be my guest.

    So, who are the potheads out there?

    As far as the law goes even if legal in your state most compare it to alcohol...so if you are operating machinery and an accident happens you will be at fault. Just be careful!

    Lowes fires employee who had been with them for 13 years for trying to prevent shoplifting

    You can blame the lawyers for all of this...whether they are county prosecutors or general counsel for lowes.... I am pretty sure HD would do the same...I try to buy local. ....local lumberyard, local hardware store. Yes its more expensive but I can afford to spend my money on businesses I...

    New user with 2023 Kubota M62

    Mowing is about the only activity I didnt really enjoy on the M62. HST with no cruise makes my ankle cramp after awhile. Everything else was great. Nice heavy machine and very capable for its size.

    Moving trashed logs

    If there are only a handful do the first 2 solo then you can decide how to handle the others. Please put a damper on the tow line if you are pulling...just in case it snaps.

    Hydraulic limb saw

    Cant imagine how hard it woudl be to position the machine correctly on a limb to cut. I have a hard enough time with a handheld gas pole saw!

    Regen comparison

    Pretty sure the only difference is some dye. At least in my area thats the only difference. Additives are exactly the same save the dye.

    flat face connectors

    I just gave up and had a couple of flat face to pioneer short 1 ft hoses made. When I detach the grapple I just attach them right away to the grapple. Then I can just tap the pioneer ends when I am putting them back on the machine to release the pressure.

    Dryer cleaning. PSA

    Great to share. I have a home maintenance list that I keep up with (sends me reminders on phone)...and that is one I vacuum the external side of the dryer vent every month. I take off the inside hose every 6 months and vacuum it out.

    Wicked 55 root rake grapple .

    For the past few years, pretty much everyone that orders a grapple from EA is waiting for months. Demand was just super high. So yes I waited 4 or 5 months and you are waiting also. I ordered mine in late Fall 2022 so I would have it before this Spring when it was needed. I got it in early...

    Arthritis and maintenance

    Sounds like OP already has one (possibly). @Watchmaker you may be able to remove it from the manual gun. If you can you should be able to put it on the M18. I have one on mine.

    Canadian Wildfires

    Aspens around Colorado dont grow well in the same areas as fir. Aspens like wetter areas, and often do not thrive unless the are in those areas. For instance you will see fir at much higher altitude and up slopes. Aspens just dont like the dry soil. Not sure I like the idea of fir being...

    Canadian Wildfires

    Well you are reducing fuel. That will certainly make a difference. But at the edges of that 10000 acres it would just burn right around it. If the conditions are bad I dont think it would matter. Cameron Peak was 208000 acres. Honestly the way the fire burned (very amoebic) there are stll...

    Canadian Wildfires

    We have lived through extreme fire behavior. With 50 mph winds in dry beetle kill fuels (dense forest) there is NOTHING on this planet that could put out a 1000 acre fire except maybe dropping the ocean on it. You could have 50 tankers lined up and by the time they got filled and back on site...

    Canadian Wildfires

    There is a difference between a "natural understory fire" and a "crown fire". Crown fires are not regenerative, they are not natural. In this area understory fires (even those that cook the tree trunks and kill the tree) will allow the pine cones to drop and reseed. A crown fire does nothing...
