    It amazes me how few people actually saw or remember that movie. I LOVED that movie. Especially that part.

    When I grow up, I wanna make pretty lumber like @Magicman. Getting ready to pull the pin on a mill. I have quite a few oak and pine logs to learn with and some will test any skills I think I might have. First practice piece is gonna be a big curved fork for slabs just to learn how to cut...

    Haven’t read all the replies yet, but that receiver hitch is gonna fill up with dirt if you put it in the blade like that. I thought about that same idea but talked myself out of it. I am working on a design that I can hang on the blade and lock in place, but easy to remove so I don’t have to...

    No heat other than a little propane salamander thing and an even smaller oil bath heater (1500W). . I want to put in a wood burning stove that I fed as a teenager, but chimney material is stoopid expensive. If the local building inspector sees it and I can’t prove it was done by a ‘professional...

    Dirt is paintable. I have quite a collection of multi-colored dirt that I chipped off when I need to weld something that the dirt won’t hold anymore.

    Actually yesterday, but did the 400H service on my LX2610SUHSD. I learned (the hard way) that a 5 gallon bucket of UDT2 is not quite enough for the transmission and front axle. The axle wants 5 quarts and the transmission wants 20. My cipherin’ and gazintas said that won’t come out of a 5...

    My wife said I'd use a Buick to kill a housefly. My reply was "the fly would be dead, wouldn't it?" She hates it when I use logic.

    That may have been me on one of the rare occasions I was in a Starbuck’s. I fit the part.

    I'm doing the 50/50 Diesel/used oil mix. It's a trailer, not a show car. Got the first coat on before screwing the boards down, and will be putting a second coat on after I get it finished. Probably be slicker than greased monkey snot on a boiled egg when it's wet, but I'm not typically using...

    Yeah, it's the way of things these days, but here's hopin' some good ol' Murican parts will start showing up over the next 4 years. I kinda figured they were Chinesium parts, to fit a Japanese tractor, assembled and sold in the USA. I'd say our tractors are quite culturally diverse.

    What year model is your SU? Mine's a 2019. Can't say I've ever left the switch on, so I wouldn't notice the problem. Hope you're enjoying your SU as much as I have mine.

    Got 'em at the dealership, so where they actually come from, I can't answer, but hopefully they're still genuine Kubota filters in genuine Kubota boxes. The guys at the dealership are pretty good and very knowledgeable. They probably wouldn't intentionally steer me wrong. They're pretty happy...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Picked up my filters and engine oil at the local dealer today. They claim 5 gallons will do the trick to refill the tranny and the front axle on the LX2610SUHD, so I guess we'll see. Gonna try to meter it in rather than just glug-glugging it into the tranny first, and hold off on the front...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    I have my 400H service due right now (399.6 on the ticker). I didn't bother with just a filter change at 200H, I went ahead and swapped out the UDT2 when I remove the filters (had the wrong one for the suction filter, didn't I). The pressure side WILL NOT fit on the suction side. Note to...

    I'm more interested in the tool rack I see in the top edge of the photo. Care to share a closer photo of that?

    Their standard duty grapple actually looks pretty robust. What I like about it is the gripper teeth on the clamshell. That'll stop logs from rolling and slipping out. IIRC, it also has gussets where the bottom teeth meet the cross brace. While that may dig a little wider trench than you...

    If #6 occurs, and it happens to be an adult cicada or large bumblebee, it's very possible to need emergency care. Don't ask how I know. Then again, had I been riding at a reasonable speed ......
