I was thinking about making a poor man's pusher out of a farm tire and quick plate, it's still on my mind but I like to roll the piles to save room, and for my son to go sledding. I could switch to the bucket for that and even though it wouldn't take much really don't want to be constantly be...

Is that a gravel lane or just a mowed path? I have some With the lighter snows I've been playing around with the rear box blade and using the bucket . I've been really thinking about a pusher. You're right it gets old floating the bucket, tilting the bucket and chasing windrows.

I paint all my implements either with rattle cans or paint brushes. The running gear was fleet farm rattle cans. It turned out the best and hasn't peeled, cracked or faded. These other implements. I used tsc brush on paint. The colors were off, very runny, and faded bad.

Here's my 2610 from April of 23. It seems like in some pictures the loader I'd brighter but not as off as yours.

I like to have 1 tool for multiple jobs. The box blade seemed ideal for dirt and snow.....pros and cons but for what I paid for the rear blade it can sit behind the barn until I need it. Or sell it for something bigger.

Nice to see another SE Wisconsiner on here. I also own a lx2610. This is just my opion but I'd never buy a new blade........just seem very light duty and all look/designed the same. Online you can find used ones but usually over priced(cheaper than the dealer though), beat up and rusty. At...

I worked at a cih dealer that sold Kubota and delivered a tractor set up with one like that. A pretty interesting piece that could eat some drifts. Today we're supposed to have freezing rain and 1-3 inches of wet sloppy snow from 6 am to 2 pm........looking at the hourly maybe a dusting at 11 am.

I did a lot of research before buying my box blade. I've watched a ton of videos of guys using them in snow. I really like how close I can get backing up to a building, I drag the snow away......just not roll it over, I can dump the snow and push it into a pile. The funny thing in guys...

That's the other thing. A 3 point blower can go higher to take a top bite then bottom bite out of a bigger drift if it has to be.

Seen a few jd guys with a set up like that.

When buying my Kubota the funny thing was my whole package deal was cheaper than the competitors tractor alone. My dealer was having a promo so much % off if you got 3 attachments. I decided on the loader, mower and rotortiller he gave me a quick hitch for very little also which for most of my...

I agree with you. I like the idea of " double tools" or techniques for the snow. I just came across those pull behind blowers. It reminds me of a silage chopper. I'm still scratching my head on how well it'd work or why . The rear back up blower would be nice to eat drifts.

I agree. I'd like to keep the loader on the front for back dragging and everyday tasks. I've read many debates on front vs rear blowers and each of their own and the operator's preference. I think rears are easier and cheaper to maintain and sort of 1 size fits all.

That looks really sharp. I enjoy giving life back into old equipment. Exactly like what you said some smart, parts, grease, and oil and you got something useful. I saved an ih plow, and jd cultivator from a fence line. 100.00 each. 1 week in the shop I have some nice implements. This is what...

Thanks. Yes part of the excitement is the hunt. So far an hour has been my limit but if I go further......out of state I could convince my wife it's a family trip.

Thanks . I think they would also to a degree. On the farm the 1st loader tractor had them, but then the next one didn't. I remember 1 fall needing them on a tractor to chop corn silage. I believe I read you'd need spacers for chains which if chains help, and would speed up the process...

Being laid up I can't justify a blower yet and I think the season is winding down so I'll keep an eye open during the summer or fall. I found 2 old v style blowers for 600. I think I'd like something nicer and newer . I found a nice 50 inch farm king for 2k about 2 hours away. If I had the funds...

Thanks. Growing up we'd try to have our crops off by Halloween cause we could have measurable snow from October to March with major snow storms in December around the Holidays. Now it seems like January to Mid March we get snow and every so often get dumped on. I usually try to Stay a head of...

Nice to see another Wisconsiner.......I'm SE though. Just near the IL boarder. My inlaws have a cabin " up north" in Mercer though. Glad I'm in the same boat. I'm not on here much but see you respond/give very good accurate advice. The four wheeler is fast, and doesn't seem as much as a chore...

Considered a snow fence, never put one up due to time, and money after my injuries and itd block some paths for the farm. The wife planted a row of spruce trees when we 1st moved. They're after 4ft tall and help to a point. Using the atv I do short runs so I had more piles of snow which...
