Lots of folk said "now it won't snow for the rest of the year etc." Hahaha, they were wrong.....it didn't snow anything measureable for three years. I got to use the salt spreader a few times but that is not much fun TBH. Looks like I'm gonna be able to get my new 3 year old weapon out...

Well, I think I have purchased only one HVAC in my life and sold my house recently thereafter. It was dual fuel goodman. My house is all electric so I will be replacing a Rheem 5 ton heat pump. Not sure what the seer rating is but the compressor is "kaput". I had a leak in the coil anyway so...

Just finished my job. TEN 80 lb bags (800 pounds) of Quickrete mixed up in the little BX bucket. Piece of cake. As soon as I finished the pour I drove over to my woods and dumped a tiny bit of leftover concrete out and drug the hose over, rinsed and not a singe grain of concrete in the...

I borrowed a buddy's wheel barrel to mix up 8 eighty pound bags of concrete the other night. I need to mix up about 11 more bags. He took his wheel barrel. I do not own a wheel barrel and would rather not buy one for this project as my bucket on my BX23s is my everyday wheel barrel. Anyway...

Been a while since I started this thread but I want to keep it going...it was a great thread for me with lots of participation from many pilots on TBN. I have right at 175 hours now and finished my check ride in October. I bought that 50 year old 182 that you can see earlier in this thread...

Here she is.....

Thanks to everyone's contribution to the other thread. I have started this thread to document my progress (or not) of getting my private pilot's license. I found an instructor who will fit my country boy profile to the "T". He grew up in a crop dusting family. Been flying since he was legal...

Not sure if my best, but one of my favorites. Plantin corn for my whitetails....

Oh, hey...you don't have to get the cube lights to replace the factor work lights. I actually opened the factory work lights on my Kubota and placed aftermarket LED bulbs that blaze the night in the housing.....Pretty neat setup. The Kubota factory housings for their cab tractors on the newer...

To the 1 or 2 people following this thread....I have FINALLY figured out a solution to the top work lights. If you all think this is worth posting in a another thread let me know and I will for future Grand Cab Owners. I origiginaly cracked open the factory housing and purchased some H3 LED...

Thanks....and you just gave some amazing advice yourself. Everyone want to use their tractors to spread fertilizer....but I spread 200 lbs of fertilizer in this spreader Sunday over an acre in 20 minutes from start to finish....that included cutting open bags pouring in etc. etc. This thing is...

Okay, so a friend (more of an acquaintance) of mine got his pilots license. He first started with a Cherokee 180 which he still owns. He also bought a Piper 6-300. He put instruments equipment on the 180 and is learning to get is instrument license. Anyway, none of that matter except in...

I bought this used....so I don't think the previous owner ever did anything to it. But as you can see in the photos it slicked up really really nice....It is a 2013 with 320 hours on it....it slicked up and is more shiny than my 2017 BX 23s sitting right next to it with 28 hours. They are...

So I have been "loving" on this tractor some here at the house before she goes and lives at the farm permanently..... Can ya'll tell the before and after pic of the polish? I am sorry but you absolutely have to click on the picture to get it to turn right. Before After

Yes, you can....I said that earlier in this thread you can swap them out. It was post #20 as a direct reply to you. Here is the completed project of me swapping out my factory flashers for LED rear lights. Af first I used 20 watt cube lights but switched them out and went with round 30 watt...
