    Lazer Level

    So, at my jobsite I am hanging a barrier curtain. The curtain is 10' high and runs about 30' from a wall to meet another curtain of the same height. So I am thinking of a lazer that I can mount to the wall to get the whole thing level. Which Lazer level to buy? Any advice would be appreciated.

    New Holland Question.

    So, I watched one of the latest Messicks YT videos about a New Holland telehandler. Nice machine. I want one. Anyway, Neil says that Fiat owns New Holland in the video. That rings true with a quick google search. Therefore I assumed that Stellantis owns New Holland because they own Fiat...

    Kubota M62, Or used Commercial Case, JD, JCB. Or Mini Ex?

    I'm going through the motions and will be BH shopping soon. I'm leaning towards a used commercial JD, Case, JCB or etc unit, but a brand new M62 is on the list too. I know a big old used commercial Case or JCB will out-dig a new M62. But new is fun with a warranty. And, everyone seems to...

    Coast Guard Won’t Enforce Or Accept California’s Harbor Craft Rule

    (To the OTT Admin, this is non-political. Just facts). So, now even the Feds are against the idea of global warming restrictions from California. This will effect us tractor people. I hope the USCG Admiral keeps his job. Enjoy...

    Question for Plumbers

    So, this house was built in the early 1950's. The tub / shower combo drains very slowly. I want to replace the drain line from the tub itself to the main drain line "bell" fitting. My question is, what is the bell looking fitting and how do I address it? I don't want to remove it, but how is...

    Had one of these delivered last week. Primary use is for my Polaris Rzr. My Rzr is just like the one in the picture. 2 seater, Turbo. Etc. My concern is the hinges used for folding it. It's powder coated but it appears that the two hinges are 3/8" steel. With a 3/8" steel bolt as the...

    LX2610 Suspension Seat Mod

    I've got a LX2610 Cab model and I'd like to modify the suspension seat on my tractor. I'm 6'3" and although I am not overweight, I weigh about 230 lbs. I sit in the tractor and even at maximum setting the seat compresses down to the stops. I think Kubota designed it for Japanese rice farmers...
