    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Congrats on the new job, or condolences as the case may be. I remember my conundrum when I bought my LX. Do I get up and go to work or do I just play with the tractor. Decisions, decisions. Seriously, I hope you enjoy your new job as much as I did my career before big company mentality killed...

    We called this the "MST", Maximum Smoke Test. Wherever it smokes the maximum is probably where the problem is.

    Did you modify the OE blade? That sucker should have some SERIOUS lift.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Me and you both. It was nice to be able to actually touch something before paying for it. 10 times out of 9, when I order something like that, what I get looks nothing like what I need, and rarely fits. That was my own fault if I picked up a part that I could see would not fit. It isn't my...

    I tell Myself what to do all the time. He doesn't listen. I think he's hard of hearing.

    I have the same loader(LA535) on the LX2610SU model tractor, to which I added a Long Hydraulics 3rd function. The 3rd function I added disconnects in a blink because it’s on the RH loader support on the outside, right next to my right foot on the treadle. I put 1 male and 1 female on each boom...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    I have to say that I'm glad the only thing I need a blower of any kind for is leaves. In the 'kept' area of my yard, I simply bag them with the little orange 'tractor', dump them in the trailer being pulled by the LX, and haul them to the 'unkept' area where I have plenty old erosion ditches to...

    That's why they made the square pizza.

    Yeah, I don't think they're intended to be mufflers so much as spark arresters. Thus the regulations in most State/National Forests. If a tiny piece of sawdust makes it through the carb and into the combustion chamber, it's coming out as burning ash, and probably resulting in a fire if the...

    Or you find a square pizza at Walmart, or Domino’s skips the triangle thing and chops it into squircles (squares from a circle). It’s the indication that someone thought you were actually catching on.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    I think we’re in agreement. I don’t have any Stihl equipment. Not because I don’t like it, I just don’t like the price. The primary manufacture of MANY brands is with pure Chinesium and assembled in Mexico with different plastic to cover up the business bits and call it a different brand. Sadly...

    Oh, I knew you wouldn’t have left it that way without some pretty specific (if not errant) marching orders. That’s why it puzzled me.

    She’s brilliant. I’ve watched her videos for years. Pretty simple, really. If you keep eating and stop pooping, you WILL stop eating. If you keep eating more than you poop, it’s gonna build up somewhere. I was fortunate enough to take vocational agriculture (FFA) in high school in the’70s, and...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Haven’t had that problem. I mix pretty rich, but not so much as to foul the plug. My saw and power head for all my Trimmer Plus attachments and the Husqvarna blower thank me.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    When I first looked at the pics, I was wondering why all the buildup with the lumber. Then I saw some of the lumber was actually a concrete curb. Are they really just gonna back the RV over that? Better not be a trailer involved. That’s a homeowner claim waiting to happen when someone trips on...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    I did a French drain on the front apron of my shop right after I finished building, but put the French drain in the wrongest place possible and also used cheap fabric. I’m paying for those mistakes now. The perf pipe is full of mud, the fabric didn’t stop a single weed/tree root from sprouting...

    So you've also noticed that not all Category I hitches are created equal, have you? That's what about half the challenge is in buying implements for a SCUT. Yeah, adjusting the QH is a lot more of a PITA when it's bolts in the hook. I like the pins you put in it. I REALLY need to spend the...
