    TYM vs Yanmar

    Cash, Cash only. This is the WAY. The FALLACY of investing the cash and paying by month is a FALLACY. There is 10,000% more chance of you losing that job, your wife losing hers, a major health issue that has you not earning for a year, or just an accident that removes your ability to earn and...

    How much ballast for a 40hp machine (TC40DA)

    I've a 26hp subcompact, and I while I have a cobbled rear weight of about $300 pounds, I just keep my tiller on the rear. Balances enough for what I should lift. If it feels bouncy, I'm too loaded up front. Drop the amount of wood by 20%.

    Cabela's Tractors

    Likewise ,I've still got mine. I finally broke down and bought a zero turn mower 2 years ago, and gave up on using the belly mower. Ztr is 3x as fast as the tractor with a better finish. So I'm only at 400 hours on the tractor, low use, but it moves lots of stuff with forks that would be hard on...

    OVERHEAD LIFT QUESTION

    Darwin still exists and is happily working on taking another victim. You are stupid to "hang" over a ton from your rafters. It isn't a few pieces for wood, but a ton. Just don't

    Mid Mount Mower Stops

    On my Tym there is a valve that manually regulates flow to mid and front loader. Might look for that. Most probably too far in one direction

    Geotextile fabric between gravel layers (driveway repair)

    Nothing is going to stop weeds growing up. Every rain, every day more trash will get in the rock and in no time, you will have weeds and grass growing in the rock. Spray and kill.

    Barndominium/Shop or "real" House?

    "Had to go out and buy a new truck" really? And you didn't get what you wanted? Would have been better getting new tranny put in. 10% the cost of that new one. Good luck with the GC.

    Leaking Fuel Tank

    Mt TYM/cabelas 27hp had cracks around top gauge attachment where it was improperly sonic welded. Would leak if over 5 gallons was added. Cabelas replaced just before shutting down

    New Railroad ties used for structural support.

    I had been given about a dozen old power poles when the local coop replaced lots when the added fiber cable about 5 years ago. Poles were 20 to 30 years old and you could still smell it when you got within a few feet of them. Get real beams made with zero preservatives for indoor use.

    Financing question for unhappy customer

    Uh, I would have had them load the POS back onto the truck if it was leaking and not to bring g it back until it was repaired. But you are passed that. Like most financed items, you have a limited lemon law time.

    How do I send a fax from Office Depot?

    I had to fax paperwork last year. It was something financial,I forget what, but I was at my local bank. And I was able to use their fax for free. Just sayin. I wouldn't do an app. I'd go to bank or office depot or the like.

    Researching a mid mount mower deck

    I've a 60 inch that goes under my tym. Used it for 5 years. Never satisfied that lawn was well cut. And 3 acres took a while. Bought a ztr, this is 2nd full year. Love it. Way better cut and 2x faster
