What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

[edritchey]

With the 60" mower you should be good. It's the 54" that has clearance problems.

I beveled the edge of my UHMW edge at about 30°, using my tablesaw. I left about 3/16", so it's not a 'knife' edge, and it'd have a bit more wear resistance. Seems to have worked...so far.

I upgraded my backup camera in my MX series tractor - I decided to get a bigger display and go with a wireless setup vs wired so far I really like it. Also gathering the stuff I need to convert my quick attach coupler to make it hydraulic operated.

I had a friend stop down at my land and used my L2501 to open up some of my two track to my tractor shed. I use a wheelchair so its not an ideal situation for me to get my Jeep stuck on the way to the shed! Now that we are in a weather pattern free from serious accumulations for a week to 10 days I hope to get some of my other trails cleared now that I can get to the shed. I think it was a good thing I did not try as he got his Chevy 4x4 truck stuck part way to the shed.

We went to the farm yesterday and dropped some old dead trees, cleared out more brush, and worked on pulling out more fence. We have to be careful cutting the trees and brush with all the fencing material mixed in. In addition, we found an old cattle feeder, a washing machine, and some other metal items that we just couldn't figure out what they belonged to.

You will love hydraulic operation of your SSQA.

Yeah our wheel loaders and skid steers all have the hydraulic couplers so this tractor is going to too because we switch between the buckets and forks all the time.

I'm also going to setup some way to operate the 3 point arms from the rear of the cab like the bigger tractors do. I don't know why Kubota doesn't off that it seems like it's needed on any cab tractor no matter what size it is.

I cut some firewood yesterday. I had dropped two logs to move some others before the ground got too soft and when I picked them back up, I got a lot of leaves. I didn't notice from the tractor, but it looked different from the front.

What brand of wireless backup camera did you use? I am thinking of adding one to my tractor this spring.

I used this one from Amazon it got good reviews and it was real east to setup.

Finally got some use out of the snowblower!

No, no snow, but it is adequate ballast for the big sections I'm dumping in the woods. Just have to be real careful with that boat hanging off the back. Fortunately no 'oops' yet. I just don't want to tear up the back yard more to get my ballast box.

We have had essentially zero snow so far this winter. I can't remember anything even close. Plenty of rain so the ground is soft.

Got a couple of good hours in today. Cut up a bunch of firewood sized logs with my new battery chainsaw. Used the grapple to haul a load of dead / starting to rot wood and drop it in the 'dry water course'. Seems a shame but anything on that trunk much over 16" (most of it) is going to get dumped in the woods.

I just went to Amazon, and they have a new model for the same price with a 10" monitor. It can also accommodate up to 4 cameras. I am thinking of this one for when I am driving my antique car because the mirrors on that car are so small. The nicest part is that it appears that it can easily be transferred from vehicle to vehicle. thanks Dusty

Is it all punky?

No, quite the opposite. Only the top 20' or so of one of the big oaks was ratty. I'm guessing, about 4-5 years ago we had a lightning hit on that side of the house and that's what did it. I really don't know what killed 6 or 7 really big oaks a couple of years ago.
I spent a couple of hours cutting and hauling. More tomorrow.

Not today....but, last week. I finally dyno'd my L2501 Turbo!

Those are pretty sweet. I need to learn how to weld. Maybe one of these days.

Very nice work matt-m

Here is a pic of a trunk cut. It's about 50' from the base. These pieces are too large for me to handle when cut to 24-30" long pieces so I cut them to about 6' and dump them in the woods. Ya gotta love a grapple!

Dump them in the woods?! All I see are BTUs! Haha.

Beggars can't be choosers! Some neighbors watched my dogs this past weekend, stopping by four times a day for three days. They repeatedly drove over 4" to 5" of snow on the asphalt driveway and parking areas during their visits. It started to snow the morning I left so I knew I was going to be dealing with the aftermath for weeks to come.

Picture from yesterday but more of the same today.
