I mean, who wouldn't like a trencher attached to the rear hydro PTO on the 3pth of the 446? :rofl:

I’m up on a ridge this afternoon. Thought I’d snap a picture of storms moving In before I head back down to the river valley.

Nice to see some green. :thumbsup: at home we still have snow in the woods and shady areas but can at least see the brown grass. This afternoon I drove three hours north to the cabin.

There's still two feet of snow on the ground and 10" to 18" predicted for tonight.

I was toying with the idea of a little trencher, sometimes I need one for wires and shallow water lines. I had ran across a small one with a bad engine and was thinking about converting it to hydraulic drive and running it off the 4118. It sold quick and I missed it.
I don't think a trencher is a much used attachment for the average person. :D

We’re getting some heavy storms right now but yes things are greening up nicely around here!

I sure hope all that snow you all still have up that way doesn’t give us floods down here in a month or two!

Last major flood we had was in 2019. River was within 6 inches of the record. Here’s a couple of pictures of the levee we build to protect our little down town area.

That’s me on the neighbors then new Kabota hauling sand bags when the river was still rising.

Ya, if we get a fast melt it's coming your way. :112:
I came up to get my boat home to be ready for the walleye run. The Wisconsin river has been pretty low but coming up with the melting. :cool:

Wow! - Sincerely hope you don't see flooding like that again... once in a lifetime is once too many - I'm always amazed at what determination and countless sandbags can do to hold back the water... :clap:

Because the more time I spend examining and pondering the rear axle in my 4000 series, the more delicate it looks!

It seems like only a crazy person would hang a forklift or a big thousand pound trencher assembly off the back of this axle.

Bob,
I recall Steve from way back in the yahoo group days, when it comes to imagination and fab skills you two could be twins ;) :hm: Maybe triplets if we count Elon for doing what people say is impossible, then just doing it anyway :rofl: For example 180+ successful first stage rocket landings and counting :thumbsup:

:cheers:
