I have the screen brightness set to maximum, and haven't had any problems yet.. but I can see where that could be an issue. I'd probably just rig some kind of temporary sunshade out of cardboard and tape it to the iPad. As for an older iPad, yeah that would definitely be a possibility. Just...

That is an excellent idea. Got me thinking about bending some heavy steel strap into a kind of upside-down U-shape, with some right angles at the lower end of the arms, to bolt to the bucket. Make a protective cage, sort of. Please keep us posted on what you come up with. I'll do the same.

Yup, here it is: https://www.amazon.com/Dashcams-Parking-Recording-G-Sensor-Support/dp/B0B7WND1G2/ref=sr_1_4?crid=17RJ3CSB5O005&keywords=arifayz+dash+cam&qid=1690655628&sprefix=arifayz+dash+cam%2Caps%2C141&sr=8-4 When I bought it in June, it was around $45, but now I see it's dropped to $39...

If I'm just using the bucket for moving a large rock or a dug-out stump or something, the camera stays put really well. Those magnets are some pretty strong rare-earth types that hold on tight. But yeah, I've smacked the camera a couple times when I'm using the brush forks that I bolt to the...

I've been wanting a way to see exactly where the front lip of my loader bucket is, especially when I'm trying to slide it under something to pick up (also when I have my bolt-on brush forks attached and I'm lifting trunk sections of trees I've taken down). Hopping off and on the tractor, to see...

Springer - Very cool, but I'd definitely think twice before running out in the dark knowing that big ol' furball is out there! Lil Foot - pretty convenient that elk has a dark spot right where a heart shot would go!

My 16-year-old dachshund Crisco, doing what he does best.

First, thank you Wolfman for keeping this thread going. I’d like to offer another view on Covid. I am a participant in the Moderna vaccine trial. No complicated reason, I just got damned tired of feeling helpless in the face of this mess. I’m just short of 70, a cancer survivor (10 years now)...

It's worth taking time to read Grant's Memoirs. I dove in looking for a strategy-level look at the Civil War, was surprised at how articulate Grant was. Also had not realized just how good the team of Grant, Sheridan, and Sherman was. After years of bumbling Union leadership, these guys...

Planted these in late fall, covered them up with straw. They're about 6" tall right now, and I expect they'll grow much faster now that the ground temp is starting to warm up. They were specifically developed in Missouri so they do pretty well here (I'm in east-central MO right along the...

Pretty cool article about 40-year-old JD's. Even though they're green, it's good to see them still working hard. http://www.startribune.com/for-tech-weary-midwest-farmers-40-year-old-tractors-now-a-hot-commodity/566737082/ Was Kubota building tractors back then? Anybody know who on the...

Got a Water Furnace heat pump 3-ton unit installed, with three 100-foot wells for geothermal source. It's a dual capacity unit, runs on low speed most of the time. Has a 10kW electric heater for emergency warmup but it has never been needed (knock on wood). When heating, the unit also heats...

I've got an L3400 so I'll assume our wiring is pretty much the same. Look under the rear wheel fenders for this pair of wires (for an optional light kit). It's switched power, only hot when the key is on. Yellow is hot, black is ground. Instead of cutting and splicing, you can just get the...

"... A word of caution on that mini ex ad. I used searchtempest.com which checks all Craigslists if you select "within any distance" and saw that exact add on Craigslists in Rhode Island, Fargo ND, Houston Texas, Colorado and Sacramento Ca. Its definitely a scam add...." Yikes - good catch...

I had never considered either a backhoe or a mini excavator until the rains this spring caused all kinds of erosion damage I need to fix along driveway (1/2 mile long), couple of logging trails, and a french drain I need to make. Question to you guys with digging experience: would a backhoe on...

Will this damage the tractor if it hits a root or large rock? It's not mine but I was thinking of welding one up.

While I would probably never buy a battery at a dealership, I gotta ask... anybody know who makes the original equipment batteries that come with the tractor? Reason I ask is I've still got the original battery in my 2006 L3400, and it has never given me any trouble. I have always kept a...

My L3400 is serial number 60992, and I bought it in April 2006. Not sure how close that is to the actual manufacture date, but the dealer seemed to turn inventory over fairly fast so it shouldn't be too much earlier than that. So I'd guess yours is maybe a 2005 model. Hope that helps.

@Charlie Foxtrot - where did you get the switched power to run to the new fuse panel? Did you splice into a wire on the ignition switch? I'm looking for a source of power for a very low amperage feed to a video camera and monitor I want to mount (so I can see the front edge of my FEL bucket)...

I've been mowing my lake edge and inside dam face by moving in reverse, either down the dam face or backing out to the edge. I only go far enough that the brush hog tail wheel and maybe a little bit of the housing touches the water. Then last week I read JR4AL's thread about his Kubota ending...
