My 48v battery has a 200a bms, which means 10kw potential. That's a lot of juice. I could hold a 2kw generator to charge battery, then go to inverter, then to run pretty much anything.

This is useful. I'm working on the solar racking and I can put the welder in the cart and drive where ever I need without lugging it around. I want to install an inverter so that I can power it right from the cart.

I cleared a little track to take the kid on in the cart. I thought it was pretty flat, but I was wrong. I also learned that I desperately need new shocks. Fortunately all new shocks is only about $70 on amazon.

I've learned not to flinch when stuff hits me doing my welding in flip flops. Hot embers hitting my feet, legs, arms, and shoulders used to make me flinch. Sure there are going to be some burns but they're pretty small and don't last.

It's not that they get dull, they get short, since they're plastic they wear down. Also those worried about safety, I weedwack in flip flops, and in 5 years never had one come off. Their locking mechanism is solid.

I've got the 3 yellow blades on my weedwacker, I change them maybe once or twice a year. They're cheap and last a really long time unless i'm hitting something like concrete.

What used to be 5 trips hauling 50lb bags on my shoulders, or 3 trips with the wheelbarrow over uneven ground, or going to the back to get hte kubota and put 5 bags in hte loader, to move 250lb chicken feed 75 yards, is now tossing 5 bags in the back of the cart and driving over.

It is really convenient. They're not the cheapest, so for bulk orders i'll go a bit further. but for something small i'll pop over there.

I was putting the doors back on the cart, i left one hand go to drop the pin in. It slipped. Right onto my big toe. Right where the nail comes out. Fortunately i was wearing flip flops and could make a quick assessment of the damage. Lots of blood nail is black, broke the skin under it.

It has doors with windows that open, but I had them off to make it easier to work on. Fully enclosed cab was a requirement due to rain/snow. My primary use case will be hauling 5-7 bags of chicken feed at a time, rather than carrying one bag on my shoulders 50 yards from feed storage to the...

Got it sorted out. Still a couple wires need secured, but new battery on lithium, charger, all new wires, fuse box, converters, lights, the works.

Second spider web. Looks exactly like the ones on mine.

Got the radio and speakers wired. I must say, it sounds pretty good. Got the flood light wired and the rear view camera off the fuse block. Got the fuel gauge wired. Got the charger pedistool cut and drilled. This actually increases my water wading clearance to 18" from 12". Not that I'd want...

This is delicious. Some website was having a sale and I got 6 cases of them.
