    Electric Surge Protectors.

    Hi guys, I'm not sure if we have any electricians here? My wife has a side business making crafts using a commerical grade laser. She had a Glowforge for several years but she recently upgraded. The new laser is very expensive ($14k) and I'm looking to have a tiered surge protection system...

    Harbor Freight ICON Tool Cabinets.

    Guys, I was wondering if anyone has a Harbor Freight ICON tool chest? The 73" cabinet is now $ 2999 which is a great deal. After researching these for several years, in my opinion they're the best value (similar really to Kubota).

    Kubota is still offering the 0.00 APR for 72 months and the 0.99 for 84 months at least until June 30th for the BX1880 and BX2680. I'm wondering if this will continue after that for the second half of the year?

    Brick Chimney Teardown and Replacement.

    I'm a little premature here with a thread but I'm curious how many brick masons are here on the board? I have a very large brick chimney that needs a teardown and rebuild from the roofline up. The previous owners were elderly and weren't aware of any issues with the cap stone. Unfortunately...

    Laser Pointer Buying Advice.

    So, we had an uninvited guest ring our doorbell last week at 4:30am. The lady was working the "night shift" so to speak and had somehow ended up in my neighborhood. I thought she was a decoy for the rest of the crew so we never opened the door and the police were called. The neighbor found her...

    Winchester Model 1897.

    Hi guys! I'm looking for a pre-1899 Winchester Model 1897 shotgun or a Winchester Model 1890 22cal pump-action rifle. If you have any leads, please message me. Edit: Please contact me even if you read this post five years from now. This isn't time-sensitive.

    Time to buy?

    Hi guys, Is now the time to buy a new BX1880? Conditions seem to have improved with higher inventory levels at the dealer. The financing is impossible to beat - which is hard to believe. The rates advertised are still 0% for 72 months until June 30th. On a side note, the 80 series is about due...

    GR2120 Proper Break-in

    I suggest moderate use, nothing excessive, especially for the first 10 hours. They do make break-in oil that has zinc (ZDDP) which you should use.

    Tractor Turning Radius.

    Good catch, I corrected that. Only the T2290-48 uses the Hydro Gear G-730.

    Tractor Turning Radius.

    Those with a farm and an M59 might measure in meters but those with less than an acre need to think in inches. Everything listed in my spreadsheet is legitimate to those interested in lawn and garden tractors. Unfortunately, Kubota doesn't have much to offer in the way of small tractors. The...

    Tractor Turning Radius.

    Things are slow at work right now, so I took advantage of the downtime and played around with Excel. I do have a Kubota dealer just two miles from my house and the John Deere dealer is about twenty minutes from my house.

    Tractor Turning Radius.

    Good morning guys! I was looking for additional information about a few tractors which might help my buying decision. I'd like to compare the turning radius, uncut circle and verify the cutting height. Any help would be appreciated! Note: The GR2120 spec sheet says the minimum uncut diameter...

    Best Time To Buy?

    I'm wondering if there's a rule-of-thumb to when Kubota offers the best deals? The more I think about the GR2120, the more I realize that it's NOT a 2/3rds version of a BX. The engineering just seems novice level from a batch of recent engineering school grads, not seasoned engineers. You...
