I use a 12v "ATV style" 35 gallon tank sprayer that I inherited from my dad in a similar fashion, utilized his truck hitch cargo hauler with a 3 pt 2" receiver hitch. The sprayer originally had 2 arms/3 spray nozzles to spray horizontally but I adapted it so I could spray at 2 different...

My Kubota sometimes sits for a month or two with no starting at all, I run Battery Tender Jrs on just about every thing I have that is like that, 6v John Deere M, Kubota, ATV and generator as well as a couple of spare batteries I use for mobile needs. They seem to do a good job overall and are...

Many if not most homeowner insurance policies have an exclusion for "intentional acts" which has historically included self-defense acts including fist fights, punching, knife and firearm related events historically. Each state will have its own case law (and insurance policy) but it is pretty...

At least you have a chance I was plowing with sweeps behind me that got caught on a root and broke, tried backing up to get the root to release and backed over the broken sweep... cut a 12 in slash across the rear tire. Called dealer (semi-rural area) I use for tires and said I need a R4 for my...

John Deere relay survivor here... It made my JD loving dad feel warm and fuzzy knowing my Kubota was starting with the assistance of big green... not sure he liked to admit it but there were many times he chose to get on my Kubota instead of his JD

I never fall into deals like that but I’ve got a buddy that attracts them like a magnet...

I purchased a similar sized sub-soiler by accident from a different vendor my tractor would barely clear the ground unless I had the top link adjusted to tilt the top way forward. The accident part of the purchase was I paid for a middle buster/potato plow but they loaded the sub-soiler in...

Last weekend I disked up the 3 garden plots I turned back in January and then attached my hiller/fertilizer distributor and laid out some rows for my early stuff. Planted broccoli and collard plants as well as seeded mustard, turnip and rutabagas. Also planted 10# of new potatoes and about 200...

Pinocchio, Snow White and Superman are out for a stroll in town one day. As they walk, they come across a sign: "Beauty contest for the most beautiful woman in the world" "I am entering" said Snow White. After half an hour she comes out and they ask her, "Well, how did you do?" "First Place"...

My in-laws appointed me to be their PoA and Personal Rep and had completed their will, Healthcare PoA and everything written down for final arrangements. Their plan was a basic cremation, no service of any kind which went against my personal opinion and experiences but other than arranging for...

Well we had a "real" ice storm in early 2018 with downed power lines and everything so I guess snow is not totally out of the question but probably not to plowable levels and certainly pretty rare. When I first found OTT I read every "plowing" post until I realized most were talking about snow...

Took off from work Friday a little early to load up the tractor and prepare for Saturday morning plowing (dirt not snow :D)and of course it would not start. I had noticed the battery was getting weak and it was last replaced April 2011 so even on maintainers they have a life span, flipped on...

I prefer prism sights for SD use because even w/o the battery there is still a reticle and with the battery it can be illuminated so you get the best of both worlds, also takes away the astigmatism issue for red dots. I have a couple of the Vortex 1x prisms and Primary Arms has a similar...

This was a pretty cool story other than the part about she and her husband being afraid to register for all of those years. 82 Year Old votes for the first time and then dies
