I am posting this just so it's easier to find for knuckle heads like me using the search function. As a preventative measure to keep junk out of my tank, I ordered one of those SS coffee strainers from the Big A. Welp, I should have read the "entire post", cause it was way too big for my...

Well there I am 0600 out trying to continue the trail/track this morning, and it starts to get a little mushy.... Should I abort this small section of path, or keep going to try to make try to make it the last 10 feet to drier land?????......Its been getting sketchy the last 30 feet or so, but...

Had the kids over for dinner yesterday and as soon as my oldest Grandson walked in he says, "hey grandpa lets go play in the garage." It took him all of 20 seconds to see that press I put together and asked what it was. So off to the scrap pile to find some things to bend up. He had a blast...

So there I was yesterday doing some "trail cutting" . The trail is more or less for my grandkids to have a little "track" to ride around on. My basic plan of attack is to cut a path as wide as the "total swing" on on BH77m (so about 15 feet) So basically I go in first "ass first" with the...

So whilst checking my 'to do " list and 'multi-tasking" by perusing OTT, I inadvertently clicked on a link one of you scoundrels posted to "SWAG Off Road" and I'll be damned if I didn't get "bit" hard by the "you gotta have a press brake bug". I really liked their site and most importantly...

Ok...Well, the journey to add a "Top and Tilt" DPOCV is still under way, but a much needed "upgrade" to the Atlas needs to finally get done. I have been putting this off for many, many years for "one of a thousand reasons". Many, many moons ago, when I bought my Chi-Com lathe, it came with a...

Just thought I'd see what actual backhoe owners thought about their purchase.

About 2-3 months ago, I was reading about how guys "recycle" their used motor oil as a wood preservative for their untreated trailer decks. Well, while up at the cottage, I was just sitting there having a few, and I decided it was a good time to tackle this project. I have learned my lesson...

So my daughter had to get a tire replaced a few weeks ago and they told her that one of her rear tires was "wearing funny". So I put it in the air and sure enough, the left tire had more wear on the inner tread than it had on the outer. I inspected it, but could not find a "smoking gun"...

Well about 10 years ago I was "up north" at my buddies place chopping some kindling and of course, WHACK...... I layed my hand wide open with a hatchet. I should have gone to the ER, but I hate those places......So some "judicious use" of "surgical grade electrical tape" and some towels and I...

Ok fellas, I think threads that go 3 pages get too long, so here's the update(s) so far on this fu@@ing debacle. Part 1 link here for those that want a good laugh. First I would like to thank all for your help and advice. Although my execution of said advice might be a little lacking. I will...

I tried searching but couldn't quite find what I needed. When I originally bought my tractor, I purchased a QH-15 and had the dealer cut all the implements shafts. Well I forgot to bring the the QH-15 back the last time, so its uselessly sitting on the floor in the pole barn. I want to use...

The weather was kind of iffy this morning for fishing, so I decided to do some Tractor'n instead. We only have 5 acres and most of it is sh!t woods. Mostly 1 to 4 inch small trees and Vietnam thick. I have a blind out back near the property line and a small clearing for a "food plot". I...

So I have this little Wen log splitter that I got from of course Amazon, and man for the money it can't be beat. One problem I have in general, is bending over to pick the rounds up. Nothing crazy big either, I'm just lazy. So I bought a "hook a roon" from Fisker and it is F'ing amazing. It...

Hey all, my hour meter and my tach stopped working this weekend at 126.3 hours. From doing a search, I found that the most likely suspect is the drive cable on the right side of the engine. Is there anything else that I could/should look at? I'm gonna call the dealer today and see if it is...

So there I am yesterday morning gassing up the blower and my buddy of 40 years pulls up. As per usual, he has a car problem, and we talk for a while about the usual BS. Well of course inflation comes up and I say to him "Man I was pricing out riding lawn mowers for Bill (my FIL) and holy sh!t...

The dude that installed the decks on my cottage was on crack, or drunk, or both. It's like he had a box of miscellaneous screws and decided to build a deck in-between visits to Hunter Bidens dope dealer. He must have traded his countersink for "a fix" one time, because all the screws were...

Ok, so I find out that your supposed to roll the topsoil to compress it a bit before laying new sod. So I borrow my SIL's sod roller, and easily lift it into the bed of my truck because its empty. Well after that MF'r is full of water, things change a wee bit. OMG, I had to do the side of the...

Hahahahah....I love that back hoe. Simply put......pound for pound .........it's the best attachment I have........I might name it "Roberto Duran" Flat out, ........I have more fun with that thing than any other attachment. Wife: Paul, go hang up the Pinata for the kids. Paul: OK...

Ok, I can't help but posting, The Good, The Bad and the Ugly. I suppose there is value in posting mistakes, as well as triumphs. Background: In the year 2020 BK (Before Kubota), I ordered my tractor and and one of the things I wanted was a Top and Tilt kit. I had never even sat on a tractor...
