    Firewood pallet

    I think IBC totes are probably the best option and a great investment for someone looking at a long term of using them. Being ultra frugal, I just wont spend what the market demands. I like the winter scene in you picture, the mittens demonstrate the cold like nothing else. Enjoy the rest of...

    Firewood pallet

    Good thinking! I like the idea, The pallet supply around here has been scant, unless you are willing to buy new ones. I do have a ton of rough cut lumber from windfalls that were too nice to burn that I will build pallets, and your design of firewood boxes. Thank you for response! X

    Firewood pallet

    I saw pictures of someone's homemade pallet for storing wood but don't remember what thread it was in. I've gone through the last 400 pages of "Tractors and wood" without finding it. It may have been in a different thread. I don't remember. The design used one and two inch lumber, the side...

    Without reading through the whole thread, I'd like to ask the question; If you are, borrowing, the truck, what did the owner tell about the truck's operation when you borrowed it?

    Chain lockers

    I keep my "chainsaw" tools in a small ammo can. I wrap my sharp chains in rags and stuff them in with the other tools. The rags cushion the chains, I haven't ever noticed them getting dull.

    Ford Superduty 6.2 questions?

    Slowpoke, I think that the tow/haul shift points are set the way they are to protect the transmission from the high torque the engine can, (and will) produce. I use the tow/haul when I pull our camper and wince when climbing hills and the engine just screams it's way up the grade. Maybe your...

    Best Chainsaw Sharpener under $300

    I love my HF sharpener. It does a better job than I've ever been able to do with a file. I don't believe it takes an excessive amount from the tooth, it takes very little with each motion. As far as I'm concerned, the chains I sharpen cut very close to as well as a new chain. I am somewhat...

    Tractors and wood! Show your pics

    SR, That is an interesting grapple hook on your loader, did you build it or buy it? Can you tell me about it, please? Maybe more pictures of it as well if you wouldn't mind

    1-1/8 x 3tpi ACME tap???

    Besides the acme thread, there is a look-alike, I think it's called a "square" thread.

    wheel spacers for BX23S

    Ok, enough is enough. If you replace the original studs, or lug bolts with longer ones, you don't need the extra complication of adding a stud into the spacer. Keep It Simple.
