    Looking for advice on (temporarily) plugging a culvert

    Thanks, I'm still leaning towards trying to insert something to extend the culvert into the pond simply because it'd be a lot less hassle, but if that doesn't work out I'll probably go with what you're suggesting. To make sure I'm clear on what you mean, you're talking about something like the...

    Looking for advice on (temporarily) plugging a culvert

    Okay, here area few pics. Hopefully they show how the pond side of the culvert is recessed into the bank (I think the dam actually starts below it). Please let me know if I'm missing something, but I think I'd need to somehow extend the culvert if I were going to attach one of those gates you...

    Looking for advice on (temporarily) plugging a culvert

    Ideas for storing fasteners?

    I use those clear plastic drawer sets like the kind in the pic I'm attaching. You can't see in well enough to tell what's what without opening them, so I label them with duct tape on the front of each drawer. You can pick them up for cheap at thrift stores and yard sales, and I just use the ones...

    Opinions on my first tractor purchase please(L2501)

    Thanks again for the help everyone! Bought the tractor and am very happy with it. I just thinned about 30 decent sized trees to get some more sun into what will be a pasture for the goats, so the tractor's job so far has been dragging logs up the hill. I've got the logs cut into 16' pieces so...

    Opinions on my first tractor purchase please(L2501)

    Hi all! This is my first post here, and I'm new to tractors but having been doing a bunch of research the past few weeks (mostly just reading through this forum and watching YouTube videos). I'm trying to buy my first tractor ASAP, and I'd appreciate any input as to whether what I'm considering...
