get 'er while she's hot, boys!

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: 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!

Had a look at our site provider and the virtual machine on which the forum is running was simply turned off. This is the 3rd or 4th time this happens, so i opened a sup...

A bit of loader work

I had a dead tree fall down in a storm the other night. I was very fortunate it didn't hit anything. I knew it was dead, but I didn't realize how far gone it was. image.png Nothing to do now but clean it up. I could go through and cut it into little pieces and haul it with the wheelbarrow, but where...

Re: It's winter - at least in the north..how do you manage to paint parts?
