Liked when "New Posts" was up at the top in the quick links. Now I have to click twice to load all new posts. Small personal inconvenience, all other forums I am on have it there, and so did this one. I miss it already. Life continues.

Update received today. Ordered 4 May, sent email asking for update 4 June. Today, got an email that my order is in welding and will ship in 1-3 business days. So maybe I'll have it right after a few days of rain so that I can't go out in the pasture and use it on what I wanted it for initially...

Anyone use the Tractor supply pine straw rake? I have a ton of pine trees in my horse pasture, and it looks like nobody that every lived here before us raked up a single pine needle. Wondering if it's worth skipping the EA one and saving a few bucks.

I ordered mine on May 4th, just the first email that says thanks for the money, sucka! Sent a follow up asking for a status 4 days ago, so far no reply. I have almost completed the work I specifically wanted it for, 3 days of working a hard packed dirt mound versus what I expect would have been...

Luckily my land is bumpy, but flat, so that danger is reduced and the bumpiness keeps my speed down. I will keep this in mind if I ever help a buddy out and encounter this type of scenario though. I have mine financed, so it's full replacement insurance with Kubota.

My salesman said with a BX no ballast was needed due to the limitations of the FEL, and I could lift a full capacity bucket no problem. In my situation, it would be extremely rare for me to ever try. I have no ballast, and no plans to get any. If I pick up a FEL full of rock and end up rocking...

Ribs on the slow cooker while we were on the river feeding crabs our bait. And a baked potato.

1. Went out to mow, took the loader off. 2. Wife..."Can you get this stump by the porch out so I can plant this azalea"? 3. Put loader back on, grab shovel and axe, remove stump. Easy enough. 4. Loader off, grass mowing time. 5. I found every piece of bale twine that has EVER been in the...

May 4th order place, May 4th money taken. Nothing past an email stating my order was placed so far.

I've been known to ratchet strap pretty heavy things to a dolly (hand cart) then ratchet strap that up onto a trailer. Not always the safest thing, especially by yourself, but it's served me well in the past. My dolly has 4 wheels, handle changes it to a cart, so not too difficult to get things...

I went a different way.

Parking stand?

Sure ain't. I was QUITE surprised. Glad the wife was out on her horse and didn't witness the shenanigans.

I cut some grass, and took out 2 branches with the ROPS, nearly flipped over backwards on one. Foot came off the HST pedal a bit slower than in my younger days. Quite surprising when your tractor's front end jumps up over your head.

So 2 minutes after this post, they called me back. They "came to an agreement" amongst themselves that it probably isn't recommended, even though Kubota says it's a BX series match. They say they "think" the 3rd function will drop pressure a little, and that operating at 6 GPM is with no load...

Is that with an auger and the QA mount? If so, I'm already sold, the 900-9 looks like it would work on a BX, and no way LP can beat that kind of price. Still no callback from the service manager. Shocker....not. Guess Land and Coates of VA gives a crap about you after the sale.

I put in a call to the dealer, waiting on service manager to call me back, but the Kubota site says the SA20 is BX, L, MX, M Matched series, so I imagine it should work. Can't really find a price anywhere on it so far online, but I imagine it's approaching 2 or 3K. I will be using the tractor...

I second this, though I only stopped working for about 30 days after 25 years in the military. Now been a federal civilian coming up on 2 years.

Does anyone have the LP SA20 auger and use it on a BX? It says 6-30 GPM, and the 2680 says it has 6.2. I know I can hang a 3PH one much cheaper, but I am about to do a bunch of fence, and I think forward is always easier than backwards. PS...I am not renting a PHD, I already have a 1 man PHD...

The best thing I found in 25 years in the military working on heavy equipment in a concrete floor shop is a wire wheel on a grinder.
