    A simple attachment for direct burial cable?

    Welding is not a requirement. I helped a friend bury some wire for yard lighting at a hunt clubhouse. We used 1" sch 40 PVC pipe, heated it with a heat gun (rotating and moving the pipe as being heated) put a bend in the pipe, WIRED it to the subsoiler. Buried 200-250' of wire in short order.

    Brittle Fender

    Mr Haney. I appreciate your sense of humor, I can relate! "I can survive this financial hit. I bought a used mower because I'm cheap, not totally desperate."

    1640a loader float?

    I've had a very similar experience. I believe what happens is moisture gets in that end of the valve and eventually some dirt/dust and rust begins forming. I remember finding all the components (just good fortune) after beginning and got it all reassembled. The mucky crud was cleaned and...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Be sure when you add the gussets you leave as much room as possible to get the pin and lock in the hole.

    Need advice on gravel driveway repair

    If the post is still attached to the concrete pretty good, put a chain around the post and if you have some hooks on your loader have the chain go to both hooks, the go forward, then backward just a few inches at a time until it loosens up more, then drag it out. Be gentle so you don't break...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    By your description you got the hammers on it? I have a 5' flail I use around some pine trees. It has the "Y" knives. I mow out in the open around the trees and then back into them. The mower gets under the lower limbs and when I pull out it looks like it's been mowed with a push mower. I...

    Need advice on gravel driveway repair

    Looks real good. Did you haul in any rock? On the post, if it's loose pull it out and set something deeper (and maybe a bit larger). Might be able to wiggle it back straight and tamp around it some. Just depends on how much it gets used and your 'want to".

    Awesome dogs / Crazy pets Thread

    Old Paint, my solution for stray dogs who are on my property on a constant basis is a metal oil drain pan setting on three dowels, made from a broom handle, about 3" above the grass. Mow the grass and wet it down before setting up the pan. A couple hotdogs and some gravy is the treat. The...

    Tractor step

    Sure enough, the front was met with one of those branches he frequently describes being in his path! After full analysis by FAA....operator error. ;);)

    It looks like the only problem is the paint was too thin. ;)

    Electric fan for B7100HST

    Look real closely and determine where one will fit! The belt on the fan hub powers the dynamo, so you'd have to figure that out also. Keep the screen clean and the radiator fins clean and the engine will run cool.
