    When men were men and boys were men!

    Back when I was 14 and got a job at a tree service…was handed a Mac 1010 chainsaw and told to get in the back of the big truck and lay down all the branches. These days they need an app to figure which way to do the LEAST amount of physical effort to do anything. Physical work these days is...

    Photo shoot anything lately? Random Photo Thread

    Yeah. Last year was great. Normal year that area where my feet are, about 7100-7200’ would have been covered with about 4 up to six feet about now. This year is another dry one so far…not much rain, warm temps and no snow pack for run off in the spring.

    Clearly I had no idea how to grease trailer wheel bearings that have zerk fittings.

    Tear apart a hub and take a look at it…learn why the manufacturer says what MapleLeafFarmer posted. There is an external spring in there that expands and settles pushing in the center of the hub to keep grease packed in there as it heats/cools and spread out or leaks out. Couple pumps and that...

    Do you buy yourself a Christmas present!

    Gotta love it. Only on a tractor forum does the Christmas thread turn into a gun/shooting thread. Oh, and you free state guys are really pissing me off with all the cool toys and evil parts…damn. Keep the pics coming!

    California to up its recycling game

    ‘Naw…you give us too much credit. We have perfected aggressive stupidity. The worst part of some of this is that we currently are getting Hetch Hetchy water which is spectacular for water quality. There is constant pressure out here to REMOVE existing dams and water storage. They have...

    California to up its recycling game

    This fight has been going on for decades out here. The biggest opposition is fire unions. San Jose and other cities have been implementing tertiary treatment so that the discharge does not screw up the salinity of the Bay. They were putting out too much good clean water and needed to get rid...

    Identity Theft

    We had that too. The single best thing we found is do a credit freeze, do your kids names too. These aholes will figure out names from online school year books and steal kids names cause nobody is thinking about that. It is some work but there is ZERO CHANCE they can steal you then…nor open...

    Electric Cars - 12 minutes worth watching

    There is some serious denial going on. The fact that we have this discussion on a forum for tractors, typically DIESEL engines, is interesting. Something that also gets lost is collision repair costs for EVs is way higher. The WSJ just had an interesting article about it. I am in Tesla...

    Interesting video. That guy sure has a dull chain… I worked for a tree service many moons ago. about 1/3 of the tree work we did was removing home owner felling from some of their garages or homes! I cut one 4’ diameter tree up in a master bed that had fallen thru the guys roof when he tried...

    It's a tractor, not a 4 wheeler.......Meet the 8th dwarf ........."Happy DUMBASS"!!!!

    Every time I have managed to mismanage my tractor into a quagmire of some sort…I have found that BH a great get outa jail tool. If I think I might get stuck I have a bucket on the front and BH on the back. Lay the front bucket flat (after stuckage) and claw my way out. Welp, OP…now you have...
