    PipBoy Holders... The FallOut Series..

    I watched the first few episodes of the Amazon Prime series FallOut. Having played and gotten immersed into the various renditions of the Bethesda games, for YEARS. I am rating this series at about 60 percent good.

    Lost the Pooch

    Against my wishes, my wife took our dog 'Bow', out for a late night free run a couple nights ago. At 2 AM. As she tells it, (I was asleep), after a slow walk, he took off after something. Full run. He ignored her commands to return. Lots of large coyote activity lately. And although we...

    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...

    Need a Boost in the Wallet?

    If I only had this energy today... In my case.. It's too many ex-wives. Too much alimony. Too much beer or whiskey. Or, Actually... Too many excuses.... There is no excuse. Go. Do it. Make it happen.

    Folding ATV, UTV, Golf Cart Trailer

    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...

    Confessions of Kubota Owners

    So, I'll start. Open station verses a Cab: In my life I've operated both. They trully are different machines. Open station is a tractor in it's true element with nature. A cab is a comfortable small home on a tractor. Now, I prefer a cab, everytime. Especially now that I'm old. But a...

    Grease Gun Coupler

    I'm having a devil of a time getting grease into the zerks. No matter hard I push into the zerk, or adjust the angle of the coupling-tip, after it snaps on, most grease squirts outside the zerk. Any coupler advise as to brand or type would be appreciated. I'm using a Lube Shuttle pistol grip...

    Roku blues...

    So, a couple years ago we ditched the satellite system and bought a Roku. It's been awesome. Saved us over $100 a month or more. A couple weeks ago, my wife gave me an earful for 15 minutes about saving energy. She woke up before me in the morning and saw that the television was on. All...

    To Plow or not To Plow

    I have a long driveway in the forest. In a couple spots, one 30 yards long and the other about 100 yards long, it's moderatly sloped. I get the best traction on the sloped areas in unplowed snow. Snow is about 7 to 8" deep now and my SuperDuty is tall and glides over it with it no problem...

    So, I bought the parts (heater unit and cord) to install an engine block heater on my 2017 SuperDuty with the 6.2 gasoline engine. The dealer wanted a lot of money for the parts and installation, but he had the courtesy to tell me that "It's an easy installation, just have a little...
