It would be a little awkward to pick a bale up with the 3PH, but if the bale isn't too heavy to carry, would be safer. But putting it down in the barn would have its own set of problems. I'm puzzled: when I was a herdsman (in a previous life), the folk who delivered hay would put it wherever we...

Good luck with that! If you do have to buy one, I learned a free lesson a month or so back: the newer welders use aluminum in the winding; you need to find an older welder. I found a couple on CraigsList that were so old that I got them for just a little less than their new price had been.

roy2636, everyone these are all good suggestions, including the ones that suggest you do try to move them. I'd like to make a different suggestion. But first, you need to provide a bit of information. 1) Is the hay yours, or are you buying it? 2) How big are the bales, and how green? If you...

Haven't yet, though I've given a lot of thought to it. The initial investment kept me from pulling the trigger before now, and since I've added diesel, more complicated. I'm just north of Atlanta, lots of hills and trees but it does get awful hot. My thought was to build a concrete-block shed...

Too late for me! I sure would have liked to see your pics last November, but the feedback I got on WFM and TBN persuaded me that SCUTs could dig, so I stepped off the cliff, and a month later, got turned onto the PTB. ***9835;Happy days are here again!***9834; Bambam, I'm wondering: if you dug...

I'm puzzled why you want to get the weight to the exact pound, even to leaving out a BH bucket's weight. I think in actual use, you seldom would need to move the whole rig, yet that's what prudence demands you figure -- with fudge factors, not exact measurements. IOW, figure 4 tons for the...

Hey Grump, have you described how you do the blasting? I'm guessing you must do much of it, like the differential; front-end; etc., by shrouding the workpiece. I'm curious how you control the dust and how you contain and recover the media.

<chuckle> Busted! However, I'm actually ambidextrous, or IOW, Multiple Personality Disorder. In addition to the oval, there's the finish flags; the snake; ram's horns; and of course, that old fish. Yes, I understood the lesson, and admire the measures you took to free yourself from that...

Whew! When I clicked on the link, my heart was in my feet (it's a HUGE challenge to me to avoid pangs of jealousy when I am confronted with someone's beautiful welds!), and seeing that camera shudder hid those welds let me admire the job without having to deal with the envy monster! <blush>

I think that Tomcat may have already done one; you might PM him about it. Please keep us updated on your progress and results! And remember the admonition many (including Tomcat) insist: "Without pics, it don't happen!"

Never seen a resource like that. Why wouldn't you just measure your hoses? I'm very curious why you would want a set of hoses - does it appear they are all about to fail?

Nice gauges! Sorry they've revealed shortcoming in your elec. system. :eek: Also sad to hear of your issues with a tack. Since I'm operating a B6100, I'm in the market for a tach, and the pucker power of info regarding your bad unit is considerable!

I'm totally ignorant of the model, and I'm skeptical that you can get it up to snuff for only 1k or 2k. Have you looked at TractorHouse.com and TractorData (Kubota) I found them to be very valuable when looking to buy a tractor. Good luck with your acquisition! Keep us posted on the outcome!

Have you ordered the Operator's Manual and Workshop Manual yet? That should be your first task! Hydraulic filters. Your other objectives look dead-on.

Bruce, your document didn't identify those. Care to give a reference to the method you're promoting? Thanks!

It was my intention to take the tooth bar off, since I planned to put in a path and a patio, and wanted to back-drag to level and pack it. I'm still working on clearing, but I've found that the Piranha gives me the same smoothing that the bucket lip would do. (I expected the build-up behind the...

Wow, D2, you got the Big Orange himself to take charge of your issue! You rok, dewd! I gotta see 'bout adding yew ta mah buddy list, see if that power rub off on me!:D

Wow! I thought I was doing good with my (Turkish-built) 2010 Transit Connect, having to replace 2 brake-light bulbs! Guess I need to buy an old Cheep. (But they don't seem to make tow vehicles, which is where my interest is since adopting this Kubby.)

DT, I'm truly sad you won't be getting a nice Lincoln welder. But since I was shocked that you would have found one you really liked at Lowes, I'm sorta glad you're not making that purchase.

The jury's out on whether the lesson was truly learned...
