I have both rear tires filled to the top with RV antifreeze and about 400lbs hanging on the 3 pt hitch.

pallet fork extension/lifting boom

A fun little project with the lifting boom. Building a swingset/play fort, and I need to lift this little playhouse up onto the platform, 5.5 feet high. The little house is very delicately built, so it only weighs 80 or 100 lbs. But you can't just grab onto it anywhere: you have to spread the lift a...

Definitely not mine. If you've ever searched for the elusive "LGT" series Cases, I've found one for you. No blades. And the spindles need rebuilt. And she apparently smokes pretty bad. But hey, you can't beat that color scheme. Am I right or am I right? https://m.facebook.com/marketplace/i...

Re: Shop tool

I have a digital version of the same tool. Very very handy when you need it.

Accurate to 1/3rd of a degree, which is plenty for my needs.

Re: Post your winter tractor setups

You guys are SO LUCKY. We never get snow here. Maybe 1/2" of slush every other year, gone by the afternoon. And a full on ice storm, where there's an inch of pure ice on all the surfaces. With no salt, the roads are impassable, and all the tree limbs fall down due to the weight, which knock dow...

We live in a world run by idiots.

I would say, "end of rant". But it's not a rant. Merely an empirical observation!
