    Tools Used

    Personally I have a cross toolbox in my pickup that has a fair assortment of tools. Sockets, combo wrenches, hammers, punches, miscellaneous wiring tools and some miscellaneous "junk" parts. A leaf blower would be nice for cleaning plugged radiators. As a person who grew up on the farm we would...

    Kubota Financing is insane

    Explore a bank loan and pay the cash price. Most likely equal out or be better than Kubota finance. I have used Kubota credit and Deeres credit also buying Kubota for cash. Ask the difference between cash and credit. If the dealer doesn't want to cooperate find another dealer. You are paying...

    Operating BX's FEL on pavement?

    Ballast? I figure with enough weight on the 3 point hitch it should not be a problem if certain cautions are observed. One caution would be to not overload the bucket. I would suggest a little trial and error on level ground to see how it works out. Keep the load low and go slow in treacherous...

    Early Father's Day Present

    Need that gnome for my son. As far as dads go, mine passed on in 2011. I have some memories of his wit that my siblings do not share, such as "That must be jelly, cause jam doesn't wiggle like that" when seeing a woman "We need to stop and get some space bread" when driving through Cosmos...

    Pallet fork; drill a hole?

    There is an attachment available for forks that uses both forks and has chain to wrap to the frame so that it doesn't pull off. Although it may not apply to you, a hole in a fork is a safety infraction, not allowed in industry.

    50Hr service-BX2380-which manual is right?

    Just as a point of interest, when I changed the fluids on the BXs, I backed the rear wheels up on car ramps, then used the floor jack to put stands under the front. Makes access easier.

    My thoughts also. Then you have the generator for emergency use at home and other things.

    What size land plane for BX?

    Go with the land plane as I find it easier than a box blade. I have a 60 inch Frontier land plane which I have used with my BX2680 and my JD 2032R. I find with the BX that if I load the plane up with gravel I will run out of traction. The Deere works better but is substantially more tractor. In...

The one meat market is one of the best known in southern MN. People travel long distances for their products. I can get thick cut bacon as easily as asking...

    Do you have a vanity plate?

    One thing about this kind of plate, it is easy to remember when the operator does something stupid. Most of the time it is better to not stand out. Also my father said about taxes "Why give them more than you have to?"

    In driving thru the country I remembered an old Ole joke. Border dispute Way back when the borders between the states were not well defined. Ole had a farm along the Minnesota/Iowa border. He was never sure how much was in MN or IA. It came time to align the border so survey crew was hired. The...
