    lost nuts!

    When I was young, my Dad always blamed me and my brothers for loosing his tools out of his tool box! I have no kids so I guess I blame my wife? She's always using something out of my tools. When I find the tool and ask her about it she says "oh I guess I forgot to put it back"??? Lifes little...

    lost nuts!

    I also once changed the cabin air filter in my wiles Buick. But I used one of the magnetic trays to put the screws into. Ain't going to loose them metal screws! Putting things back together, you guessed it. All but one screw. I searched that car ten times, wife looked too. Frustrated I gave up...

    lost nuts!

    SO today after blowing snow I decided to adjust the shoes on the JD 54 inch blower. Had them way up for the first few blowing jobs. Was going to do it outside but it started snowing (lake effect) again! Pulled tractor into unheated garage and decided to us impact wrench (quicker, yeah right)...

    Detach 48x28 Garage - Footings

    Put it this way, 5 month or a year down the road, if the floor breaks or cracks from running heavy equipment over the threshold, $150 of concrete would look like if would have been a bargain. I'd run the footings with rebar. But it's your choice.

    Here comes the rain...

    Lots of rain up here! Started about two days ago. Calling for more the next 2-3 days, like they say least it's not snow up here!(UP) Leaves pretty much off the trees already. Wind has been blowing for two days and nights!

    Help us choose a dog

    Did not mean to sound a negative way. Just saying, we cannot say how long a dog will live, so you must be committed to the animal for life. We have had dogs for the last 40 years of our lives, and yes it is difficult in retirement to travel when you have a dog. I apologize to you if you thought...

    Tree cutting accident

    Not cheap? But it last for years so it's a very good investment. Once you have it, you'll always have it.

    Help us choose a dog

    If you cannot commit to a full life dog, get a teddy bear.

    actuator control switch.

    Does anyone know of a actuator control switch that could be used to control a actuator I want to use to control my shute deflector on my Frontier snow blower? I see them on the internet but the one I purchased does not reverse the direction. Thanks for any help!

    Joy Stick from ebay

    So I purchased a 2no joy stick switch to build a control for my frontier SB1154 shute. However the switch does not have a diagram for the elec. connections?? There are 4 screws for connecting the power and control for the direction you'd want the shute to move. But if I were to connect a + & -...

    Permanent mounted Christmas lights

    Do this every year now. Few years back I put up hooks on the roof edges then took a couple lengths of my snow rake and tapped a hook on the end to both put the lights up and down. Problem is every year it seems a couple of the hooks break off (plastic) so once in awhile I have to get a ladder...

    John Deere Bullit connectors

    Anyone know of a place to get the bullit style electrical connectors that have a short wire lead on them? LVA19138 has them, it is a splitter for rear lights on my 2025r. I'd like to add another light and keep is OEM style wiring.

    New (to me) 4100

    Owned a 4100 for over 20 years, brush hog snowblower and 54 in mower. Only thing I had to replace was the glow plugs and front wheel drive seals! Then I stupidly traded it on a 2025R three years ago! If it last half as long as the 4100 it'll be surprising! $100's are Bullitt proof! Tractor never...
