    I have been looking at rotary cutters for my new (to me) tractor. It is a Kubota L3710. As I have been looking at them I have learned that some are rated for 40HP and some 65HP or 75HP and some are much heavier built than others. What I mow is pasture that is mostly bahai grass about a foot...

There was a man at the sale (Son in law i think) who was familiar with the tractor. The owner had it since it had 6 hours on it. The guy knew what kind of oil it had in it...

    How I replaced my Kubota L2900 Radiator for less than $640.00

    My Radiator started leaking on my L2900 so I took it out (actually my youngest son did) and found a long crack across the bottom. I called the nearest dealer and they were very nice and even apologetic that a new radiator would be $640.00. I took it to a local radiator shop. He informed me...

    Smartphone Photo of the Day

    This an ocean going coal barge turning around in our power plant canal after unloading. They don't have much room to spare. The barge has thrusters on the front sides that do most of the work. The tug at the side never tightened the line or touched the barge while I was watching.
