    Landscape Rake wheels

    I've had no problem with mine which are identical to the Ignite ones. There really isn't a lot of stress on the down tube during operation. The highest bending moment is up at the attachment to the rake cross bar.

    Landscape Rake wheels

    The Ignite wheels are identical to the set I bought from Atwood's but at a much better price than I paid. I have been very satisfied with the wheels.

    Raining mud!!!

    A distant tornado can lift dirt high allowing upper winds to transport it a long way before it finally rains down.

    Building a machinery shed

    As long as snow does not build up a lot it should be fine. It would not survive at my location in NH. That 3ft rise in 20ft is a 1.8/12 pitch. A roof pitch of at least 5/12 (that would be over 8ft rise for your 20ft length) is needed for snow to slide off a metal roof. In any case, I'm sure...

    LX4020 Recall

    Actually when they called to inform me about the recall they said it would only take about an hour to do the fix. My only concern was their reluctance to commit to how soon they would return my tractor. Tentatively we agreed they would come and pick it up on April 7. I delayed it since I...

    LX4020 Recall

    The Kubota dealer called informing me that there is a recall on my LX4020 for a problem with the cruise control not releasing (staying on) and they want to come and take the tractor to fix it. I never use the cruise control and have no need for it, but will probably get it serviced provided...
