shameless plug.. I have a complete FRONT blower setup available. As new, BX2810 "K-Connect" BX2816 50" blower. used a couple of snows on a BX2860. Literature indicates it all fits 2380, But IDK. direct mail me if interested. It's just sitting...

Is this a case of a factory solution to a problem that doesn't exist?

Nice thing about this scenario.... "Life" can not be invented. It takes a special spark!

4x4 gauze a couple triangular cravats a couple rolls of cling Good tweezers and a small hand glass. Always in the truck, Lots more in my work vest ;-) (ski patrol)

I'm trying to think of a single situation where I would like to have the hydrostat disabled by the brakes. Might save trying to drive with the brakes on, but that... I can tell.....;-)

If you are not pulling plugs, (or drilling ,as in post #3, It's a waste of time and effort.

Art and beauty. Nothing a machine is or does can be felt to be such.

Amazing what could be replaced with a turnbuckle and a short few lengths of chain. Lift links are not sacred , nor magic.

Nice fab, and a very nice tool! I wonder what it might do that a planting of radishes and alfalfa would not. Such "organic" means have been effective in my area. The benefit is literally TONNES of organic inputs. And you don't need to do more than scratch the soil surface.

I've bought enough "log loads" over the years to question that same measure. My orientation has always been "A cord of wood is a the amount contained in the volume 4' wide, by 4' tall, and 8" in length. That's a difficult measure when carried random butts on a logging truck. So one year, I...

8 feet? Your loggers are only half the men that work here in New England!

I don't pay a gym membership/ I'm 73 yo, working up my winter's heat for the past 40 years. But felling, topping and cleaning up, 6 cords of fire wood is just a lot of work. It makes the $1000 a load seem like chump change. And the same money into the oil burner would get me a couple of...

18-22 has been my experience. Might be a local thing. Trucks are one thing, pup trailers are another// eta Think of the tonage when encountering a loaded rig on the roadway! Dang, don't get on the wild side of a wreck with a loaded log hauler!

I've got the B2601 set up for a hydro top link, have the cylinder "mostly" ready. But even a top link from Tractor supply doesn't fit the winky support wire offered by the factory. What great solutions have you come up with? I have been using a loop of clothes line cord. (para cord what...

I'm setting out some sad hemloc logs as cribs in anticipation of the load delivery. The spot is best served with "custom lengths". ;-)
