What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

[ctfjr]

I think I've been to that cemetery. What town is it in? Bethlehem?

I am curious, who decides a hand washing station is needed, and why is it needed?
Residence don't need it, visitors won't the there long and no reason to get dirty hands!

Probably new federal regulations!!

Probably new federal regulations!!

or perhaps the Jewish tradition of washing one's hands after leaving a funeral or cemetery.

I changed erl in da B,, only took 5 hours, after trying to take the FEL off,, I dont know how I managed to screw that up but I did, and it only took about 3 1/2 hours to get it back on so I could take it off again,, this time it popped off just like it was suppose to, what I did any different I havent a clue,,, Then took the mower deck off, that went with out a hitch,, yeah I know I dont have it back on yet. Now to change erl,,, filter came off new on easy peezy. I went to pull the plugs,, ahhhh 14 mm dont fit, 15mm dont fit,,, 16 mm fit but was making me pucker, cause it felt like it was stripping the bolt heads off,, I had to take the plugs to the flap wheel to get 2 mm of paint off them now a 14 mm fits. SO it all sits and since it is raining I guess that would be a good thing today to get it all back together,,, after I go over the MMM and see what fun that brings

All I did was mover her from inside the mancave to outside for a few days. Once I get the 2 post lift installed she'll be back in her spot.

Took the excess driveway material from yesterday's regrading and used it to make a tractor pathway. Since I put in a new lawn last year I don't want to destroy it just yet with the tractor to get into the front woods area.
There was a really steep drop from the driveway but this excess material made it passable.

I may add a little more fill at the bottom

Yes sir. Fountain Hill. Good eye.

again. Correct.

ok, finished the cemetery today. It was a much better day today. Squeezing in to do some backfilling with the hoe and then a rough grade. I can't do much more with it with this machine...

bucket lunch...

My VERY good friend was buried there a couple of years go. He was born in Bethlehem but I met him in the 70's when he was living in Easton. We rode together for many years.

is that a modern water fountain made to look old or is it an old fountain that was already there and just replumbed?

 

[michigander]

Got to wondering about on fuel consumption. I have a excel file with how $ spent on fuel. Back tracked the receipts to get the gallons purchased.

B2601 165 hrs. has used 101.99 gallons of diesel = .61 gallons per hr. $293.96 total cost , all road taxed.

.61 surprised me I figured burning closer to .8

It's a new Murdock Post Hydrant...they run over $1,300.

Finished the carryall today. I made a hinged shelf and can turn the boards on the end gate into a work bench. Also made chainsaw scabbards by scarfing out 2x6's and mounting to the sides. Now all I need to do is get it dirty!

That’s very similar to my B. If you want to avoid the tax go to where the farmers get it. As long as not for a road vehicle it’s no issue legally, at least not that I am aware of where I live.

Very nice! The idea of a bench top for field work is spot on. I bought a carryall last year but have not had time yet to do anything with it. The shelf idea will definately be part of my future design!

Changed the engine oil on my B6200 and B7500. Probably will grease them tomorrow. Replaced fuse for hazards on the B6200. Big day for a retired guy. Ha Ha

Put in the french drain for the Chicken Mansion then spread 2 yards of 5/8- on the neighbors driveway where we put in the culvert a few months ago......

 

[fj40dave]

Like KISS say's...now it get's rough!

That gem was the size of a small car...ain't no way the BH77 was getting that out. And yes, I did hit a tomb, but I don't think I disturbed the occupant.

and one more of the bucket brigade passing screenings over the fence...oh what fun for all. Will be back tomorrow to finish it. Water line install for a hand washing station.
