Well, you failed miserably! I'm offended that you told about my toothless mouth but left out my name! :p

What makes you suspect that?

Hope you make her wipe her feet before going in! That issue is a result of settings in the bowels of the forum software; all pictures are presented in portrait mode. Live with it; always hold your phone/camera vertically; or edit the pics to make them taller than wide (or square). I don't...

Fell off my chair, laughing so hard. You guys make me historical! :D:D:D

Yep, properly torquing is the key. Moreover, when a fastener is properly torqued, no other restraining should be necessary. Lock washers (or serrated washers) cannot add to the tension of the stretched threads. (There is much engineering data about this; just Giggle it and be persuaded, or not.)...

Really nice, Hfrs7, I'm inspired as well. (Not to make a metal toolbox; mine will be plastic. I'm actually inspired to get you to "run over" and do some creations for me! :D) That mount looks hefty enough to stand on -- what is your intention for the open space, any plans?

LMAO!!! <crum!> OTT won't let me post less than 10 characters. So: "Did you check it with a square to see how close to vertical it is?"

Hi, m7060, a belated welcome to the forum. Your profile doesn't list your equipment; what did you put the camera on? What was the reason for turning to a camera? Also, let me warn you that a number of folks on OTT snarl: "Without pics, it didn't happen!" So if you can, snap some pics and post...

roverbug, that is a beautiful machine! It seems to have been cared for pretty well, except perhaps for oil changes. However, you will notice that the motor oil in diesels turns black just moments after pouring it into the engine! :D What D2Cat said! That may clear up the smoking. If not, it...

Mactool, I'm having trouble finding the crow; more trouble than you had finding the 'dump spot', and the missing hose. Sounds like you went over and beyond. Keeping the loan for the life seems like a good plan, considering. Going with your original plan, but banking the payoff and making the...

"Lock" washers don't, really. (May be a thread on OTT about that, but the bottom line is a flat washer is more effective, and if used, a lock washer should be used between a flat washer and nut. When looking for a Nylock-style nut, be sure to get one that will leave one and one-half threads...

I think I know the cause, but first, a question: when you pinch your grandkids' cheeks, to they get bruised? I ask cuz I suspect you're 'bout twisting that key too hard. Aftermarket keys will twist in two, but Kub keys are stouter and will let you twist 'till your fingers hurt. (Don't ask! :p)...

Hmm... I'm not using 3PH ballast yet, though it's on my "project list"; you raise a question that hadn't occurred to me. My 3PH leaks down in about 5 days with only a Triton 3PH hitch on it; however, I doubt I'd have that problem while running the loader. That being said, I'll be interested in...

HJT, it sounds like you're so close to being able to fit a tractor with R1s that it's time to do some 'tweaking' on your garage door. (No, I din't miss the fact that you're getting R4s!) Most motorized openers set the upper limit switch well forward of the end of the rail, leaving ~4" to 6" of...

Wow! What's your source? I need some fill in my backyard. I'm not that far from you, about 45 miles north of Atlanta. :D

Hi, and welcome to the OTT forum. I am very ignorant of the intricacies of hydraulic systems and have no advice to offer, except to be patient. So far, there have been only about 25 viewers of your post; some of the gurus will eventually come along (prolly typing their well-researched responses...

Jesnell, this is a question the gurus will have to answer. I suggest you PM (send a Private Message to) North Idaho Wolfman and Service Dept Vic, asking them for their wise counsel. From my days as a grunt in a NAPA machine shop, I would say that the inserts you describe should be flush, not...

Crum! DieselBob, I am very sad to hear this; my B6100 is a lighter, less powerful machine so you have around 300# on me, and prolly more like 400#, given the way you loaded your tiers. I'm running Ags and often find traction a problem, and "rutting" (git yer mind outta de gutter, skeets!) so...

K30Cody, do you know about AuctionTime.com and TractorData.com (Kubota tractors) I've found them to be great resources when looking for a Kubota beyond my local area.

That's a great tool, Anders. Elegant in its simplicity.
