    Terrible looking but functional tiedown bracket

    a good quality helmet is worth the investment. i spent years using one of those super cheap ones. i swapped up to an adjustable tint battery powered one a couple years back, and wow i couldnt believe i was able to weld using the cheap one lol

    Lowering the Roll Bar and Canopy Shade on a Kubota Tractor

    the height of the roll bar is likely set where it is IOT prevent the tractor from going all the way belly up. when you see videos and pictures online of roll overs with ROPS it seems as though most of them just laid down on their side. shortening may prevent it from keeping the tractor from just...

    How would you fall this?

    How would you fall this?

    this literally just happened to my neighbor a couple weeks ago. he did the "top down" method as mentioned before and the last 6-8' or so of tree just slowly stood back up. then he cut it off as close to the root ball as possible. he is a wiz with a chainsaw and made it look super easy

    Backhoe tips and tricks (asking not giving)

    on an HST how can it do anything? leaving in gear and the peddle in the neural position in neutral. park on a slope and the machine can roll under its own weight. You wont damage it leaving the HST selector engaged.
