    Box Blade Width - Your Thoughts

    First off I own a L4600DT with R4 tires. I have a land plane, so the soon to be purchased box blade will not be used for road maintenance. I intend to use it mostly for moving dirt, ripping up some roots in areas I have cleared and a ballast when doing loader work. What width would you...

    EA Attachements-Aerator

    My EA Attachments 60" core aerator was delivered a few weeks ago. It is a beast, used it twice so far first time to get a feel for it and to see how much weight I would need to add. It weighs in around 650#'s so I added 200#'s to it, which seems to work great. Much of my property is hard from...

    Had Katie for 5 years now and moved quiet a bit of dirt with her but never lifted anything that I knew the weight of. Last night came home with pallets of corn that I needed to unload.

    Game Processing

    Good afternoon from soggy NC, our deer season is nearing an end, bout 3 weeks left. Curious how many process their own game or do you carry it somewhere to have it done? Too me processing it is as much fun as actually hunting or planting food plots, scouting, etc. My friends and I all debone...
