What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

[dirtydeed]

New sewer connection. Evidently, these are real money makers (more like cash grab) for the municipalities. This one went without a hitch. Beautiful soil with very few rocks (but, many roots). Access was limited, but made it work.

and done...

Watched rain wash bird droppings off it, they like to perch on the steering wheel and make a mess of the dash board.

Post up some pics! I actually Scrapped a few corvair motors earlier in the year. We pull them out of the old volkswagens and put vw motors back in them. That’s was the hot swap back in the day. Until parts became obsolete

Just had to reply about the Corvair thing,in 1974 my buddy had a 66 Corvair convertible with a bad top bearing,we took the motor out and took the upper half with the spun bearing to our local Vocational Education Center. I was in Machine Shop and he was in Welding. I set up the engine,bored the bearing hole .015 oversize,bought .015 oversize bearing race and fixed it. Damn what a trip down memory lane. Thanks for the memories!!!

I’ve had a few different ones. A Manx, a mini t and a few sand rails. I miss Them for sure. But the lack of places to ride them in New Jersey makes it tough to own

It will. I flip the seat up so I don’t get my bacon fried when I get back on it. Helps prevent a very wet butt too. Speaking of which, hope you folks in the northeast get dried back out soon. Sounds like you had one of our afternoon shower up there.

If by afternoon showers you mean 11" of rain in about 6 hours...

 

[Old_Paint]

Yep, that's exactly what I mean, and most of it comes in sideways. And today, beautifully sunny day out there. Need a few to dry back out, but the news announced the rainy season just started here. Based on the previous 8 months, that is NOT GOOD. The data's gone now, but the neighbor's Tempest weather station was reporting over 70 inches of rain so far this year. Not sure we can stand a rainy season. Wondering if the Tempest folks cleared the data for some reason.

Doesn't cover the whole wheel.

Took Katy out with her new fork setup to see if we could find some saplings needing clearing. Found a few (loads). She can definitely carry more on the forks than on the bucket.

Lubed up the tractor, checked all the fluids, cleaned windshields and inside the cab, tightened/checked bolts. Then we mowed and got it all dirty to be cleaned again.

I have to admit, I like these cooler temps.

 

[gmbc]

Washed and cleaned up tractor then put back in shop

Retrieved some big cherry logs I cut earlier this year. Ripped out another small tree. Some of these I'm not going to get out unless I get a stump bucket.
