Very nicely done! Good idea using the lead from the gun range.

I have turfs only, not filled, very nice on the lawn. Better than expected in the snow but I do use chains when it gets slick, especially in front for steering. Turfs are awful in the mud or if you need to bite in to move a pile, even on grass.

Don't confuse "Gear Box" for "Geared Transmission". As Caden stated DO NOT put SAE 15W-40 in the transmission! Your geared transmission must use any universal UDT transmission oil. The engine can use SAE 15W-40 designated for diesel engines. Don't use the same stuff you put in your non-diesel...

Yes - we don't want to loose you because you were reaching that last 2" because you didn't want to get down and move the cage over. :(

1,100 hours / 25 years = 44 hours / year. So it was used 3-4 hours per week in the summers which doesn't seem abusive. Rough ground and hills may be it's undoing, hard to tell. A lot of parts for the T1760 have been discontinued so buyer beware. Like Caden mentioned the mower deck on my old...

Not true. I built on a lot that's nothing but clay - little did I know when I bought the property - nice view though. We dug down and put in road cloth as North Idaho Wolfman suggests, then laid layers of appropriately sized stone over that, hasn't moved in 18 years. Have even had multiple...

Not sure if you could rent them for less than your budget but have you looked into crane mats or rail road ties? Put them down - pick them up.

Just went by the same station as in my post #29 to grab some milk. Diesel was $5.899 Friday - today, Monday, it's $6.099. $0.20 over the weekend. WTF! I know a lot of you guy are paying much more than I am but somethings not right in the world!

I believe he wants "quick-connect/disconnect connectors". Something like these...

Have you checked with your Kubota dealer, the sales department / whole goods? Maybe call Messick's or Coleman's.

That's a lot of rock. Whoever coined the phrase "dirt cheap" had no idea. Nice job!

Very true, that's why I filled up before going there, used just over 3/4 tank up and back. Problem is the people that live up there (middle of the Adirondacks) have no other option. All the other stations in the immediate area have similar prices and alternatives are miles away. Captive...

Built a rock screen, used old and new wood and ¼” hardware screen fastened with deck screws and washers, got about $75 into it which kept my CFO (wife) happy. I have two piles from when I scraped off the sod for the retaining wall and the blueberry patch. Piles have been sitting for a couple of...

First three things I'd check. "clean all battery connection" Did you clean/replace the ground wire from the battery to the frame or just cleaned the battery terminals? Clean and repair any and all ground wires to the frame first before proceeding with other repairs. "when I turn the key...

The average price per gallon of gas in the Mohawk Valley NY the end of August was $4.05. Below is a picture of the price of gas at a major water slide tourist trap in the Adirondacks Aug 24. Diesel was almost $7. How is that even legal?
