Thanks in advance for your help!

I have a Massey 2605H, (about five years old with a Perkins clone), that seems to be in "limp-mode". I was using it Saturday in the woods for several hours, sometimes running the saw, sometimes using the tractor, it was operating normally until I tried to start it after a few minutes of it...

I spent the last day reading about the VIOFO A229 Plus 2CH Front and Rear 2K+2K HDR 5GHz Wi-Fi GPS Voice Control Dual Dash Camera with Sony STARVIS 2 Sensor I have one in my VIOFO shopping cart for about $210. I was ready to pull the trigger until I went to Amazon and started reading the one...

That sure is a pretty tractor, nice score.

I bought one for my 2605H from the local dealer for under $100 a few years ago and just checked the *bay site, they have one for around $72.

I would agree. After you repair the drilled hole, you still have the same issue with the spun bearing, which would be more of a challenge.

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...

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

Bruce, Thanks for your reply! I like your design. It is so nice to have this forum as an aid in finding solutions to problems by great people like you! Xavier

Thankyou Hunt4570! During my search I've had the pleasure to read some of your posts. You and others on this forum are a great help in sharing your experiances and opinions. We will probably never meet, but if we did, I'm sure it would be a pleasure on my part. Xavier

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?

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.

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...
