Is it possible to get a decent robot vacuum? And if anyone says AI is going to take over I'll introduce them to my robot vacuum. We got the two we have now last time i was laid up. The one is an irobot i3 and i don't know how many times i kicked it back to its docking station. The other one is...

Thoughts on a salt neutralizer. been using this Eastwood Road Salt Neutralizer Gallon it is not cheap. used about two years, but is it really making a difference or is it just that we are washing the vehicle more? leaning towards switching to this 3X Chemistry Salt Neutralizer, Gallon it is more...

I have a 7753 had it for ever do all my own work on it and I am the one to use it, so i know it rather well. My questions is this, do the lift lock vales fail more often then one would want? It lifts slow, tilt is fine. The issue started all of a sudden. does not appear to labor when it lifts...

This year I gained my winter weight way to early. I am naturally a skinny guy so gaining 8 lbs in the winter just tightens the jeans. However this year I gained mine way too early. They say gaining the winter weight is a northern thing. Am I alone here?

that is the EweLink app on my smart phone. Has all my garages on it. It ROCKS, in the loader have an opener, on the lawn tractor have an opener. Need to pull some one else's car in, you have an opener! I had the silly flo light interference issue, cutting down the opener range, problem gone. In...

Do I Need a USDOT Number? | Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration According to the above if you are a commercial vehicle over 10,001 combined gross vehicle weight you need to have a DOT number. My pick up is a commercial vehicle and pulls a 12,000 pound trailer, so you need a DOT number. I...

Finally got smart and slit a 2" chunk of sch40 pipe and put on bucket cutting edge, big difference. You can still dig up the lawn but have to work at it. Thought would be issue on concrete, still scrapes it clean. Picks up just enough on gravel, leaving it in place. Did find one draw back...

My 7753 started making a different hydraulic noise, lets call it a whine. Now when she goes into a pile it doesn't have the power it had in both the bucket hydraulics and the drives. The engine is not bogging down. It just is not there. When I replaced the filters the two metal return line...

So, what is everybody's thoughts on how to route these hoses. Cause the way it is now is not going to last long. In the short term I am leaning towards just rotating the t on the bucket, such that they face up. Then I need to figure out a way to keep the coupler from sticking out so far.

Built this so that I could get low and under the tong when it is on the ground. Also don't have to grab the forks. boxed in the pin hone This should get you the length the other one is at a 45 this one is at ?, think you could get away with another 45, I just matched what was on the bucket...

Am I the only one bothered by this?

In this months diesel progress. Diesel Progress North American - November 2015 Above is the link. Now if they could do it on a smaller scale costs effectively. For those that can't open or follow the link basically, they generate electricity, use it or sell it back, where they payback is they...

Don't know what everyone else is using but this is what I found works best for me. It is 1/2 inch rebar 5' long, buy it in 20' lengths, it is in the ground about a foot. On top is clear soda bottle with reflective tape around the out side. I like the rebar, because you can hit it, it bends over...

The car is just the body. Once I waked off a chunk of the c channel/fork extensions and used that instead of the angle iron, things worked better.

Replaced the cub cadet, it was time served its purpose well. It is a gravely 252 like it. Cut mowing time in half. Scary on the hills, but it is do able. Installed mulching kit, works OK...., don't have to worry about where discharge is going anymore. Verdict is not in on how much I like it.

The attached is from this month's issue of diesel progress. Paints are fairly accurate picture of tier IV on the industrial side. Interesting read. Steve

17 years ago white pine was planted on about 10 acres. In some spots the trees did really well and every tree they planted came up, so I have some trees 8' apart. Now they are between 20'-30' in height, nothing is growing on the forest floor. They are fighting for light as in some spots have...

Works really well! swear it will go a mile. When you pump 130 psi into it is kinda scary as you can feel the PVC expand.:cool2:

My 7753 aux hydraulics will not work electrically in forward or reverse. I can hot wire them and get it to work. Has not worked since new and previous owner messed up the wiring. Below 19 is the control switch. It would be nice to know how that works schematically inside. The dealer wants $100...

Rebuilding the control station on my 7753, here is the before Still cleaning the manure out of it after 15 years. Pulled everything a part blasted and powder coated. here is the link to my post on how I powder coated everything...

This is the last hose and then I will have replaced every hose on my 7753. OK, except for right driver motor and aux hydraulic hose on right. This is the only place I have seen them but.... these hydraulic fittings are junk! The nut appears to be steal and the JIC seat area is brass, and for...

On the 7753 Bob cat loader on either side of the chain case all the way to the back are two holes that are open to the bottom of the belly pan. When you get in mud such that the belly pan scrapes bottom mud pushes up through these two holes like play-doh in a play-doh maker. When the dirt mixes...

I am using a pump sprayer for my automatic transmission fluid and a hand pump for the 5 gal bucket of hydraulic oil. I'm looking for a cost effective way to dispense gear oil. In most cases a funnel doesn't cut it. The pump sprayer works great for the trans fluid, just think gear oil is going to...

It is not a snow attachment, but maybe post snow:cool2:, spring is here:dance1:This is the third season I have had the Shindaiwa Power Broom, this is the first time I have been able to physically use it. This is the slickest thing since sliced bread. For the real bad spots I just drop the bucket...

Yes that is the wife's oven. Figured out a use for a perfectly good oven, and now i can feel better about paying to replace it.:cool2: I'm going to figure out how to powder coat my welding projects. I am sick and tired of spending hours on making something, then paint it, which takes almost as...

Have two linear actuators on the blower for the skid loader. Wanted small toggle switches mounted in the skid steer control handles. Also didn稚 want to run a bunch of wire. With this circuit I can control both really motors by running 4 22awg wire, the green on the attached schematic. The rest...

Pole building. Recently had surgery so can稚 do much so figured I would lay out our new building project. We had two shelter logic tarp storage building, for 8 years now. They are filled and we have just out grown them. Every time we go to pay our tax bill I will miss them. We ended up with a 30...

When you push both sticks forward all the way one side goes faster than the other. You have to bring the other stick back to compensate to keep it straight. A quick look and a linkage issue are not jumping out at me. Don稚 know if it is related to one side or the other. Just have the kid...

Built this A frame hoist, followed plans I found in the forum, can稚 find the post to give him credit. Works slick. Only modification I made was adding the jacks, so I can raise and lower for the different heights in the ceiling. Then I can raise it way up and tuck it in with the car lift. Steve

Built this just recently. Got tired of everybody leaving me there useless SUV and borrowing my pickup truck, bring it back and complaining about how my truck was a piece of junk. Dimensionally it is the same as a pickup truck bed. Has hydraulic surge brakes and the axle is rated for 3,500 lbs...

The issue we were having is we were getting way to much water in the air for our bead blaster. I you look for a good drier costs upwards of $1000, which is more than we paid for the compressor. So what we did is put an after cooler between the compressor and tank. The air temp out is 220 and...

I have a 7753 with the BOSS controller. The dealer is clueless on how it works. There was like only two of them made. The BOSS controller will not pull in the auxiliary hydraulic solenoids. I have the solenoids hotwired so to speak. It is looking like the controller is not pulling in the...
