I agree that care and common sense are vital, and I was well informed of that when I posted pictures of the 2 cranes I built for my B series. The smaller one is used to move long logs about and work in tandem with a skid with wheels on it, new revision under construction- it is kept low and it...

I used the light angle that the triangle mounts to and added 2 short angle sections to that. Drilled 2 holes through the plastic box and used 2 multi-hole pins to locate. I only use this for some tools, pins and light straps, nothing heavy like chains. Removes in seconds when access is needed...

I put on a coat of rocker guard with added rubber. Worked well on my Allied. The paint finish on these Kubota blowers is very thin. You can get it at Canadian Tire, Dominion brand. http://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/rubberized-rockerguard-undercoating-0477935p.html

This is a quick and cheap tool storage I mounted onto my B2301. Don't know if it is what you are looking for or whether it will fit.

I assume you bought your wife new pots for Christmas!!! Nice build and a good use of old weights.

I totally agree with the benefit of a front mounted blower, I had a 72-inch Allied rear blower on my last tractor and although knowing you could blow snow from Ontario to Manitoba without an issue it was hard on the back and neck. I also automated my front blower this year with chute rotation...

Having looked at the wiring on my 2016 B2301 I would not use any of the factory lines, they are very small gauge wire and the protection is OK but not great. I would added an additional fuse board and then power everything from that. You can direct feed it from the battery or relay feed it if...

Having used the manual rotator and no chute control last year I decided motorisation was required. Mounting a window lift motor for rotation and a 4-inch actuator for the chute I looked at how I was going to control these and the location. As everyone is well aware space is at a premium so...

Finally, it is done. I decided that as I drop the ROPS in summer for grass cutting and one of my doors is a little low I wanted a system that allowed for the quick and easy removal of the light bar. I decided to use track section and drilled and tapped 2 1/3 inch fixing into the ROPS, this will...

The cables both internally between components test OK. The external cables from ground to clamp and terminal to torch also seem OK. I have only visually inspected for cuts and loose terminals and carried out a continuity test. The welder works but just low on output, max stage 2 is what used to...

I also use a Mr Filter unit and have seen a small amount of debris but so far no water. I only buy 5 gallons at a time as I don't want to have summer in when it turns cold.

Well, after a couple of years of good service from my Harbor Freight 170 amp welder it decided to play up. I had just finished welding some 3/8 inch angle to a heaver section of plate and all was well. I then started to tack weld some grate sections and the power went down. It is still welding...

I only fill 1 55 gallon drum and I use a waste water pump with a gas engine, I use an HF 12-volt pump for watering, it is self-priming and does a good job. I would be careful with 2 drums on the unit at the same time. If your ground is very flat probably ok but if you take the weight 2 x55x...

The unit has an intake on the back and had a length of pipe with the unit but no regulator. HF sell the regulator, but, I only intended to use gasless wire so the fact it was optional was no big issue. I bought a replacement warranty for $30 for 3 years - swap out at the store. I thought if I...

I have never used a post hole borer but I did watch a video on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DcsHPPJRd5Y He talks about moving the pin on the boom to the higher hole which gives greater lift force, this one shown is for a compact they do one for sub-compact BX which I don't think...

I am in awe of the quality and variety of welding equipment, skill, and knowledge. I only have a Harbor Freight 170 amp 220v mig welder, it was on special $139 and thought it would be a good starter. I changed the tip to Lincoln .35, use a gasless nozzle by Lincoln and .35 gasless Lincoln...

You are a prince, amonst men. I will in the future post my pictures and you do the magic, I will continue welding and turning my tractor into Chitty Chitty Bang Bang]. Deal. Incidentally, I am Scottish - so a dram all round.

The last set was only 1 in 4, I am getting better. Windows 10 with the window viewer add-on. Taken with a Casio digital camera. The strange thing is, I import the picture, check rotation, close the folder, reopen and they are correct and show that way on the viewer, photo, Picasa, when I add...

Sorry about the neck strain, I have downloaded windows viewer but when I look at the pictures they are in the correct orientation. Anyway some further work has been done and for those who got excited at the small lift, this might be too much. I have this unit so that when lifting the carry...

Just finish my front brush guard, it is made from tube and all the sections are doubled up with a tube inside a tube. As I only use my tractor for cutting grass, blowing snow and some lifting and carrying no forestry work I thought this might be enough. I made it so it tilts forward for hood...
