    B2620 thumb operation

    +1. This thread needs pics. My thumb (on my BH77) is also manual, but I can’t picture what the OP is having trouble with?

    Recommendations for Chain and Binders or Other Tie Downs for Tractor Transport.

    I have the binders pictured on the right for my 2501. They work great, but as pointed out above, I think I would go with straps for a “one time” move. I transport mine on a “quasi-frequent basis” so I chose to switch to chains and binders, but in all honesty I never had a problem/concerns with...

    Funny that you should bring this up. Last week I bought a 1/2 inch drive “Chi-Com” knock off impact cause it uses Dewalt batteries. Although it removed my wifes minivan lug nuts, it did so “just barely" So here it is, ready for the “return voyage” home…….. 900 FT-LBS. my a$$…………….Their...

    Good luck to all the “deer hunters” out there……Caution lots of "gruesome carnage" pics...

    The last time we made a claim, my wife wanted to “wash the blood off” and I told her “no way, thats our ‘proof’” 🍻

    No, surprisingly/thankfully they did not. The airbag sensors are located on the "radiator core support”, just a 1/4 inch below the headlights. The “core support” was wasted, “just above” that part, but amazingly the "sensor area" was unmolested. I had to replace “basically everything”...

    Pic update: Here she is “all dolled up”. Sorry for. the “night pic”, but with that damn daylight savings time thing, our schedules only have us cross paths when it’s dark out. (come on retirement!!!!!)

    Locking Gas Cap

    If you have a 3D printer, or access to one, a "lockable cover’ would a fairly simple thing to “print out" Side Note: My dad had device that kept me and my brother from F’ing around with “fuel caps”…. It looked like this…..Pretty sure he got them at K-mart’s…….

    must-have workshop features

    I got’cha…. (y) (y) The older I get, the more light I seem to need/require….. So “stupid’ly bright lights” are a must have for me. I also paint the floors and walls “white" to reflect as much light as I can. I agree with the “tallest/biggest doors” possible crowd as well. (insulated too) A...

    Smart guys, SOLAR

    Nice use of those old sh1tty scuba weights in your top pic!!!!!…… (y) (y) After accidentally dropping one on my SIL’s toe, I scrapped them all and bought the soft weights. I hate those damn things.

    must-have workshop features

    What is the “primary focus” of your shop? Tons of great ideas above, but I think it really depends on what “type” of work/play you have in mind. My "garage shop" is primarily automotive focused and my "basement shop" is primarily metal working and reloading/gun focused. For me, I would like...

    As Ted Nugent would so eloquently say……”Whack’em and stack’em” my friends. (y) Last week my wife unfortunately "filled her tag” using the mini-van. Man….3 deer strikes in 4 years is getting ridiculous…... The important part is that she has not been hurt. The guy that stopped to help her...

    A better way to power the fuel storage tanks with the aid of some "pack rattery" and repurposing

    Nice solution! I love “repurposing” things…almost too much some might say. :cautious: How fast can it fill your machine?

    Shear Bolt Price Explosion!!

    My guess is that Messick’s is trying to be as competitive as they can, since it only takes me a few seconds to click around and find another dealer with better prices. I have no idea if it’s tariffs, greed, or the cost of steel, or American wages Vs. Chinese wages, or fuel costs, or the...

    L2501 runs rough

    I have no idea what the difference is in regard to CA diesel ; however, in MI the only differences that I am aware of, are the color……. and of course, 60 cents in tax. I would also suggest making sure the tank is venting properly. If it is building a vacuum, that could cause it to bog.

    Kubota l3300 starting issues

    Although it has been eluded to, Be damn sure that NO PERSON is “in the way” when you jump that starter. Bad things can happen if the tractor starts to move unexpectedly. Just sayin…. (y) 🍻

    Need advice L3302 HST

    I would get photos of what they are talking about ASAP. As well as ask them to put that on the invoice. It might help with your insurance claim. (which I would try.) I am no insurance pro, but if you “hit somethng” that seems like an “accident” that they might pay for. (but I am frequntly...
