That is bad - the bag label says Made in Japan, I guess the bag was.
I bought a glow timer on eBay. I knew it was a Chinese knock-off. When I got it, the package said Made in China. But they had copied it so exactly 'Made in Japan' was molded in the plastic case. And the label was clearer than the original.
I bought from messicks to sure the genuine article as many fakes are available on eBay and Amazon, Even though the package looks the part. I’m sure this new bushing is high quality, it feels and looks like it anyways, excellent tolerances.

We finished the winter/rainy day cigar lounge today hardware/shelves/auto vent mechanism)…still in a bit of a stand off that is not a greenhouse.
Curios where you got the "cigar lounge", we are looking for something similar. Thanks!

Cleared one bay of the garage this weekend for the LX2610 (arrives Tuesday). Part of that space clearing involved moving 1500lbs of poplar base/casing that I have to paint when it warms up and install in the house. Set up some additional "industrial racks" and rearranged the garage a bit.

I also found a little issue with my LX. Noticed in the photo I took that the third function hard lines look tweaked. I compared to another member's DIY thread of the same kit and his install is what I'd expect mine to look like. I texted the dealer owner on Saturday and he said he's going to look into it Monday supposedly... They already have my money so hopefully they actually look at it and correct the issue (if there is one) instead of BS'ing me.

Definitely have them look at it BUT I tweaked mine by hand a little when I did the install to get ‘em even. Took about 3 seconds.

Also, make sure to get some caps for whatever fittings you end up with for your 3rd function. If you get ‘em after (like this idiot) you have to take the fittings off to put ‘em on. Not really a big deal but I’d rather do a job one time instead of two.

Glad to hear it is a simple fix if they installed correctly to get the lines leveled.

Doesn't look like my FEL fittings are capped, I'll have to get some. What did you end up ordering? The fittings for the rubber hoses at the valve do have caps.

Today I plowed about 6ac of food plots with it and changed the oil/filter.
Probably run the L3560 tomorrow

If you want to be OCD
There's nothing "OCD" about using the correct terms. Sometimes, it even saves lives. There is no situation where incorrect terms improve anything for anybody.


don't be incorrect yourself , its feller not faller.

You can have The Idiocracy's Encyclopedia (founded by a couple of hippies as a rebellion against "the Establishment". Fact. Look it up.), and I'll take the term the fallers themselves use.

Machines exist which are called "fellers", but the fellers that do the falling call themselves fallers, fella.

They are never called fallers here. They are called fellers.

I know sometimes when things go wrong, such as getting stuck so thoroughly a real recovery effort is required, it’s easy to forget to take pictures. You needed get your tractor unstuck and I respect that, but WE need pictures! 🙂

I lubed the FEL yesterday. Today, I hauled about 12 bucket loads of nearly fossilized cow manure to the garden.

Some fellers are fallers, some fallers are fellers. Some fellers who are fallers drink soda. Some fellers who are fallers drink pop. Some fallers who are fellers drink soda. Some fallers who are fellers drink pop.

Not that it really matters, but if you say it wrong enough long enough, people actually begin to believe it!
