    show off your "on" tractor toolbox

    I have one for using my pole saw or extension ladders. You can see one of the brackets in this picture, sorta obscuring that valve body/hose. Note how it slides into that upright tube.

    Quote on a hydraulic thumb add-on to BH92 - Want to confirm

    Man, things sure got expensive. I paid 600 for the add on weldment and claw. I added the two valves for my TNT for about 800 and the I bought an after market cylinder and two hydro hoses for about 800. That is the best feature for me…love that Thumb. But jeez things have gone crazy for costs.

    Mechanical Thumb Question

    Backhoe Owners poll.......

    You already saw my post in your rock sorting thread. Iffin’ you got rocks or hard soil…yep. whatever you do, get a full frame mount and not that three point stuff. I beat the hell outa my set up trying to get rocks dislodged and there is no way all that torque on a three point would survive.

    Woodpeckers are doin-me-ead-in!

    We had them real bad..tearing 2-3” diameter holes in siding and doing a lot of damage. They are very common up here and most folks use fish netting, metallic streamers, fake owls and pellet guns. Nothing would stop them. One guy asked if my house was a dark color…why yes! Painted the house...
