    In this time of Covid, I thought everyone might enjoy this Home test for Covid. Take a glass and pour a generous amount of your favorite whisky into it; then see if you can smell it. If you can, then you are halfway there. Then drink it. If you can taste it then it is reasonable to...

    A very elderly couple is having an elegant dinner to celebrate their 75th wedding anniversary. The old man leans forward and says softly to his wife, "Dear, there is something that I must ask you. It has always bothered me that our tenth child never quite looked like the rest of our children...

    Skidding Logs??

    You are very welcome. My point was/is to show that there are ways and implements designed to use with a farm tractor to allow it to safely skid logs even though the tractor was not designed to do so. Bucking, skidding, loading and any otherwise handling logs is dangerous work and one must...

    Skidding Logs??

    Another view of the forks on the rear of the John Deere. It allows me to hitch high enough to lift the log off of the ground and the wide forks prevent rear flipover.

    Skidding Logs??

    Skidding from the log's top end has several advantages. The top end is smaller/lighter so lifting it is easier plus it also shifts the ground contact portion to the butt so there is much less ground contact hence less dragging resistance.

    Skidding Logs??

    Now the fact is that logs should never be skidded with a farm tractor. Rear flipovers have killed many tractor operators. You are absolutely correct that if you do they should be skidded from the lowest point on the tractor to prevent a rear flipover. This point would be lower than the rear...

    This new scam is being pulled mainly on older men. What happens is that when you stop for a redlight, a young nude woman comes up and pretends to be washing your windshield. While she is doing this another person opens your back door and steals anything in the car. They are very good at...

    Skidding Logs??

    Use your 3 point rather than your draw bar. It's already been mentioned about lifting the "nose" of the log up to keep it from digging in. You can't do that with your draw bar. Whether you use logging tongs as shown or a choker attach it as close as possible to the tractor. Remember that it...

    Just be sure that you have natural overflow capabilities if the intake is larger than the pipe can handle.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    The spillway needs to be across undisturbed soil to be less likely to wash out.
