    Buying a Kubota tractor and building a Camp

    I did an afternoon visit to the recreational property this afternoon with one of my motorcycle riding/hunting buddies. Today, nothing Kubota related. We brought my Honda Pioneer side by side and three Stihl chainsaws, fuel, bar oil, and woods tools. Today's task was ride around on all of my...

    Shop/Shed 30x60

    PoTreeBoy, Yellowjackets. The spawn of the devil. CRC brand of Brake Cleaner in the Red Can. With the little red plastic tube in the spray valve. Nothing I have ever tried kills them faster. You can spray it down a hole, into a nest, or on a painted drywall surface inside a house. It dries...

    Buying a Kubota tractor and building a Camp

    @Runs With Scissors: "Just an FYI, Rumor has it that some municipalities, will require "building permits" and such. I have no idea if that's true, but knowing how .GOV operates, I would not put it past them." It might be true, or a rumor. But only if you tell them. There is zero zoning at my...

    Buying a Kubota tractor and building a Camp

    The place that sold it to me only sold two grades. Cargo ready and one trip. Mine is a cargo ready. The side of the container you cannot see in the photo has some good sized dents. From inside to outside, so at some point in it's history, it had internal cargo shifting. There are no holes in the...

    Buying a Kubota tractor and building a Camp

    I was rereading this entire thread, and I haven't done any real updates on the cabin, other than machinery for several years. We still have the white Old English Bulldog, who is the lazy project manager. We have recently acquired a new JR project manager. He's a Mini Bulldog. 3/4 French Bulldog...

    Buying a Kubota tractor and building a Camp

    I sold the John Deere X700 which was carbureted, and replaced it with a 5 years newer John Deere X720 which is fuel injected. The fuel injected X720 is much more fuel efficient than the carbureted X700. The X700 was a GAS HOG. The X720 typically uses about half the fuel quantity the thirsty X700...

    Buying a Kubota tractor and building a Camp

    The people here with good visual acuity may notice the differences in the very first and very last photos in the above post. Originally, I had four of the Amazon (China) LED light bars on the BX25 TLB. Alas, using the machine out in the rural woods has destroyed the left and right facing LED...

    9492 by cee_Kamp 32ACP, on Flickr We've had the 2011 BX 25 TLB since 2019, and have completed all the known backhoe jobs.

    Kubota Tractor "M" Series Automatic Front Locking Differential.

    I have seen many threads on this Forum usually from new tractor owners about front wheels not doing what the owner thought they should do in slippery conditions. Usually they notice one front wheel spinning, the other front wheel doing nothing. Power is delivered to the front wheel that has the...
