Don't feel like the Lone Ranger, the Kubota B-3000 has an undercarriage that the Front mount blower is attached to.... first couple of times it was a real hassle mounting it by myself. But it's well worth effort once it's mounted and up & running. Now it's a piece of cake to put on ...

Hard at work at my local airport this morning....No job to big for a OSHKOSH SNO-GO

A welder friend whipped this up for a customer. Looks like the real deal for being a handy add-on.

I have a Mazda Miata Convertible, which replaced my Honda Goldwing GL 1800.

I've never been happy about the factory cab mirrors on my Kubota B-3000 factory cab. They tend to move around and I'm always having to open the cab doors to re-adjust them.

How I spent my Morning, ..... blowing out my first early Blizzard of the season and in the lap of luxury of my Kubota B-3000. :cool2: Enjoy Winter!

HELI-HOG'N on Vimeo :licking:

This was just down road from me about 6 miles and I saw plenty of black smoke from the high winds fanning the flames. No cause has yet been determined, and luckily no workers injured. What the fire didn't get , smoke inhalation did....

Hi Dave, That's I-90 near Fairmont, and over Iowa Lake. And of course a Selfie ! I'm just fiddling around today learning Photoshop and my new Windows 7. This surely does not top the 'African Honeymoon Safari', but only because there's no new bride on board . :)

As long as my Kubota Cab's Heater stays working , I'm Happy ! :):thumbsup:

To add insult to injury !.... I found a good local TIG welder who could fix the leak in a grand fashion..... no leaks, and No Charge ! At least I have a spare condenser now.

Sorry, but that equipment was from a previous generation of farmers who really worked for a living, and that is a two bottom plow. The aerial shot was from my Kolb Firestar, I never fly without my camera on board......Thanks for the feed back. Enjoy the Sunset !

From my Kubota Cab,and my Plane..... it's just about perfect weather, Enjoy! :thumbsup:

One last clarification: A failure to communicate , ... I was told over the phone by the dealer rep. it was the [compressor] that had failed. I just got it home an hour ago and it was the [condenser] that cracked and was replaced. I looked at the cracked condenser and It looks like an easy fix...

Only a year after the new tractor warranty on my B-3000 Kubota expired the air conditioning compressor cracked and was not repairable, due to the very thin walled material. A brand new one will cost $800. plus labor and will take a week to get the new unit. Plus I had to haul it to a dealer an...

Now here is the Kind of Camp-Fire I can really enjoy, while watching my Kokopelli's humpbacked flute players, as I roast my Wiener.

Grazing on the green grass, a simple scene that is dissapearing from the American landscape.

Every year we do a burn of tree trimmings from the previous season. Great time for a wiener roast. :fiery:

About 15 years ago I torn down my old barn, A neighbor stopped over and took some pictures. Today the same neighbor dropped by and gave me these rare photos of the old barn. We saved most all the lumber and build a new frame hobby barn and sided it with the old salvaged barnwood boards. Enjoy...

Thanks..... This one just showed up!

Let keep the grape Jam & Orange slices out for these beauties.

Runway Maintenance Kubota style This late wet Spring has allowed the grass to get too tall before the first mowing of the season. This 3000' grass strip is used mostly by Light Sport and Ag Planes.

I've owned many motocycles over the years, but this 1998 GL1500 SE was my favorite, as I did the most traveling with it around the country.

After a lifetime of motorcycles , I got out of Motorcycling last year. Here was my last one..... A 2006 Goldwing.

As a pilot , I'm all for some rules of the road , so to speak. It would be only a matter of time before a midair fatal collision occurs with a passenger plane of some sort. Best to get some sensible rules in place first ! The FAA is doing something right this time.
