    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Just had 4 yards of 3/4 marble chips delivered. Got to drop a half dozen buckets around the property. The previous owner has it all around the house but some areas are down to the fabric beneath. Should get a good bit done tomorrow.

    Photo shoot anything lately? Random Photo Thread

    I did shoot it with a monopod years ago when I shot high school football. Never could get comfy with that setup even after many hours of trying. Ended up using a Wimberley, even for shooting air shows.

    Photo shoot anything lately? Random Photo Thread

    Good shots! No substitution for length when shooting birds. I picked up a used 400 f2.8 years ago. Even tho its a heavy bugger for me now I keep it for those times I want to shoot some flying buddies. I have to put a 2X or at least 1.4X on it and shoot on a tripod.

    Stupid me

    on second thought . . . that should be an easy project if you have a brake switch and you have some kind of electrical switch(es) operated by the treadle pedal (forward and reverse) My treadle must have those switches. If I stand up from the operator's seat and press the treadle in either...

    You are probably the only one on this forum that has ever done that!

    Would you buy the same tractor again or a different one?

    This L3800 is my 3rd Kubota. There are times I wish it had more lifting ability. It's essentially the same machine as my previous L3400 sans backhoe. Would I buy the same tractor again? Well, I pretty much did. Today I'd buy 2, one a little bigger (probably MX) and one smaller (BX??).

    Autumn

    Very windy here yesterday - took almost all the leaves down from the large hickories but the oaks are hanging on. Used to really like riding (mc) up to Vermont this time of year in the 70-80's. Then traffic got too busy to enjoy.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Service day today. Oil & filter, fuel filter and full greasing. It took a lot longer than I remember doing it last time :) Why is it I can never do a servicing without spilling something on the floor?

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Today was the day for chipping the load of branches I pulled down and the small parts of a tree I dropped last month. Having the chipper on a dolly makes life good when mounting it: Before - I had pushed most of the branches into the woods but some were covering some implements and after...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Yesterday I resolved an issue I had with tree branches rubbing against the guys for my new tower. I used an 'antenna launcher' - similar to a spud gun but shoots a 2oz lead sinker - to get a fishing line over several branches that needed to come down. Used that line to pull up a 1" line that...

    My new (used) Kubota L3200

    Very nice looking tractor. Good luck with it! About 5 years ago I picked up a used L3800, pretty much the same machine. It had just over 250 hours on it. Its been great for me and now has just over 600 hours.

    Snow removal

    Every commercial plow guy I used over the last 30 years, for a building I owned in another town, had a rate sheet based on the number of inches in the storm. I did change providers a couple of times when their snow depth seemed really out of whack for some storms.

    Daily Chuckle

    My wife has never forgiven me for this and its been about 6 years now. . . I got a remote controlled mouse (she claims it was the size of a rat). Carefully placed behind the toilet in our bathroom. I waited about 2 minutes after she went in and pushed the remote into forward, full speed. Let's...
