Well, every thing I have read on the Kubota B2401DT has said that it is manufactured in Japan and the engine is manufactured by a engine division that Kubota manufacturer all its engines. I have been very impressed with the B2401DT . I have added rear remote hydraulics to my tractor and it...

Very nice work. I have not been welding for very long and it has been a couple of years probably longer since I have done any welding. I would love to be able to weld with your expertise, but I’m just going to have to get to work at it. I only have two cheap HF welding machines, a stick and a...

I just made one yesterday! I have a Kubota B2401DT tractor and I had not thought about needing one until I had a near rollover incident! I had an old metal box that was just collecting spiders under my shop lean to. It’s about 20” long x 36” wide x 12” thick or weight wise with cured concrete...

I was able to get my welder connected to power today. I did a little welding and I have to say I am a little bit rusty, so I will just get busy tomorrow and get some welding done. I sure it won’t take long to get back into my welding groove again! I got my materials together today so I am...

I agree with you. I believe that I have been procrastinating on it since my son in law owns a welding shop, I have just been having him weld some things for me! But now that I have been working on projects again, I just need to buy a welder. I need to have him educate me a bit on what I...

I did some work on the cultipacker today. I finally got it on the tractor with the 3 point hitch attachment that I modified it too! I tested it out and I am having a binding of the packer pipe and I have made a support beam to put across the cultipacker to make it a little more rigid so that...

I have two, a stick welder and a line welder. I just need to get them hooked up to my electric. Yes, I have been here for two years now but I am not the best at it. My son in law has a welding business probably one of the best in Eastern NC. Folks come from hundreds of miles away to get work...

After finishing the cultipacker as I had planned! I was not happy with it! My first thought when I started the project was to make it a 3 point hitch to connect to tractor but I didn’t because I wanted it to be easier to sell if I decided to sell it later. So I decided to change it to a 3...

Amen to that!

I have seen this type of thing before but I think it’s purpose is to break up the soil before planting. I have a cultivator that works great with the soil here especially in the woods where the soil has never been cultivated before. I bought it from an old farmer friend who had it laying...

Okay, I have read all the comments and looked at all the information provided. I know that there are many different approaches to making or purchasing the “cultipacker”. Like I mentioned earlier in my threads. I do most of my making of things just to get outside of the house and keep myself...

I believe that if you do anything to help the seeds make better soil contact when you sow them you will get better yields. I have a back blade that I use to blade my driveway. I could use it to get better seed contact with the soil by turning the blade 180 degrees and tilt the blade so that...

I have always loved being outside as much as possible so I have always had the opportunity to do things that I enjoy doing, hunting, fishing and other outdoor activities. “ my dad told me one time “if you sit on the sofa and watch the TV all day, they will find you in the same spot when you are...

Well, I have a friend who’s been using one for years and he said he has had very consistent success with his food plots since he started using it. He said that just throwing out the seeds and hoping for good germination will be a loss of about 50% of your seeds but by rolling them after you...
