    2022 vacations ?

    Wife and I saw a friend of our daughters at a local restaurant last week. She said forgive me if I sound confused and slurred. She said she was in Nashville with friends and they were directly off Broadway and a guy came up out of the blue and punched her in the face. Hit her so hard her head...

    Fuel prices

    I used to work in a beryllium factory. Never grind it or melt it without proper masks. N 95 are not enough. in its solid form it is fine. I’ve even showed friends it’s safe by licking it. BE copper is in more than you think, everything from circuit boards to ping golf clubs. You are correct that...

    Fuel prices

    I thought the same thing. This seems very dangerous to me. Even if a tank is plastic the drill sparks a lot.

    Fuel prices

    My F250 needed filled. The pumps were raised from $100. To $125. before shutting down. I always fill until the pump nozzle shuts it down. So I then renter my card and top off. Last week I ended up putting in an extra 1/4 gallon.

    Craigslist score!

    What do you guys use to search. I’ve tried tractor implements, 3 point hitch implements and only crap comes up. Not looking for anything now as last month I ordered an EA box blade and a 55 root grapple. But one never knows what you may find and need.

    EverythingMoneyAttachments. All the money up front?

    I am a nearby business. I am available during business hours I just don’t sit in the office all day. If I knew the day I probably could find maintenance things to do around the facility, but if I am inside the climate control building I wouldn’t hear them anyway and would still need a phone...

    EverythingMoneyAttachments. All the money up front?

    So Yesterday I finally pulled the plug. I called to order a box blade. After speaking with Travis I ordered the 60” for my LX 3310 with 1.5 inch spacers on each side. Ballpark is 5 months! I told him that I will be calling in a month or two to order a Wickeder 55” grapple and that I would need...

    Alternator upgrade kit ?????

    If you did not need bearings that could still be used. It’s not optimal but you could put the ring terminal under that nut. Just make sure to pull the stud up as it most likely has a plastic insulator that is shaped like the stud so to won’t spin as you tighten the nut.

    Alternator upgrade kit ?????

    OMG I rebuilt hundreds of those And made them like new again. Easy rebuild if parts are still available. When I left over 30 years ago filed coils were getting hard to find. Some places started winding them on site. We did not.

    Alternator upgrade kit ?????

    Take it to a starter, generator, alternator rebuild shop. I used to work at one and the post you broke is easily replaced. I did it all the time. I worked at a place that rebuilt all those above from cars to tractor trailers. If the bearing is shot it may have taken out the armature or field...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Thanks, been itching to install it. I have a Blizzard 8.5/11 plow for that F250. We own a self storage facility and it is difficult to plow at times. I have run out of room to push snow and paid a guy to put it over the fence. Now my plan is to let the Mrs Snow blow around the outside drives...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    WOW what a wonderful view. Although that is a lot of driveway.
