I would like to pull water from a pond up the bank and install a cattle trough to keep them from eroding the bank. I would say the rise is no more than 10'. The pond is about 2 acres, but the level can be 3-4 feet higher or lower depending on the rains. It is about 2 acres and 10-15' deep...

I am still researching a MIG. So far, I am sticking with the "name brands" that I know: Lincoln, Hobart (Miller) and Everlast. What I **think** I want is a 110/220 capable machine and - can use large spools (8") - capable using flux core in addition to (argon+co2) with wire - do NOT need stick...

I am considering an electric leaf mulcher, such as the Worx or Sun Joe model/s. Not certain what to call this type of stand-up units ? I have owned a couple of the electric mulcher blowers - the ones with the bag on your shoulder. What a pain. I am DONE with those type units. You have to be an...

I'm certain this may have been discussed previously, but has anyone found a product or treatment to stop grass from sticking under the deck ? I have heard / read of several things to "try" and claims this or taht works, but have not found these work for me. Ideally, there would be a spray or...

Found a box in the garage I had forgot about. Was purchased for my 2014 Cruze Diesel, but is expired and I am not risking putting into my car. What to do with the old DEF ? Being Urea, would it be okay to spray as fertilizer or... ? Unsure if there is a use for it ? Hate to just dump it...

I have a 6" water well (capped off) that an oil company drilled to fracture a nearby well. Best I recall, the well is about 330' deep with water level about 70'. I am considering using this only for cattle and a backup "prepper type" supply (not connect to the house). I have had a water well...

Any advice on blades that will better handle grass with stems ? I am considering "gator blades" which I had on my previous mower, but perhaps there are better options ? In general the stock blades will get the job done, but I have to re-mow some areas to get it all.

After a few years of continuous weeding, I decided to create a buffer zone around my entire house. These "flower beds" extend 8-10' all the way around. I chose to use landscape cloth and top this with "small" washed rock. The rocks are say 3" down to .5" washed gravel that I can get locally. The...

I am a complete NOVICE welder. I purchased (at friends recommendation) a Miller Thunderbolt 225 AC / DC several years ago, and still own this machine. Over time, have discovered that most everything I weld is "thinner" metal. What I would like to do is sell the Stick welder and purchase a...

Has anyone used the wedge lock system ? Considering to try, but interested if anyone else has used. Unclear to me if you can stretch barbed wire to these corners and how sturdy / how it would hold.

I have a couple of slopes that water, will at times, run across. Unfortunately, the cattle need to get thru these same areas. Been asking around to see what types of material one might use on the ground (if anything) so they will not carve a cattle trail thru this area. Concrete is out of the...

Considering a purchase. Anyone recommend a manufacturer / brand ?

JD2355 Cat 1 and Cat2. Having a lot of issues getting equipment connected to the 3-point. I have the sway blocks set for Cat 1, but when I go to hook up (3-point sprayer for example), if I do not position the tractor exactly right, I cannot get both lower pins on because one arm will hit the...

I have an old Turbo Spin 3 point seeder / spreader. Having issues that I am not certain about and could use some advise. Just put out fertilizer (bagged) the other day. I tried to set the gate and drive speed for 100 LB / AC. The gate opening numbers are worn off, so I had to guess the setting...

I have a 2" SOLID diamond configuration tool bar. Trying to find the brackets / connectors for this size. Ultimately, want to "plug-in" some coulters. The only source I have seen for solid ones, the type that are shaped, without U-Bolts, is from Lorenzo. However, their number seems to be...

I have a FEL and am finding the need to carry tools along with me, shovels / rakes, chain saw, barbed wire, posts.... Any thoughts on a good 3-point carry-all ? J.

I am in the market for a MIG (wire feed) machine. Have been looking at (seems like) 100's of models, but having trouble with a selection. My basic requirements are up to 1/4" steel; however, 95% of my projects are geared toward "garden / home" projects using tubing / thin wall metal. I would...

I am trying to understand what tool bar I should get. A tool bar (to me) includes the bar and the "3-point" "frame". What I am trying to understand is: - is there a "standard" or rather, a "common" size for the tool bar ? I see various sizes 2", 2.5".... on and on - also, even in the same size...

I would like to have some attachment to break up the top hard pan soil. What I am imagining (but, I do not know if something like this exists) is a set of knives / chisels ? I sold my 5 shank renovator some years ago. It was difficult to use for me (55 hp), the moisture level had to be perfect...

:confused2: I just purchased a Wiley 100 Gal 3-point sprayer with a Hypro Silver (8-roller) Series pump. The reason for my concern is I previously owned a sprayer (tow behind) with a Hypro blue pump and had all kind of issues. I only spray about 2-3 times / year, so the sprayer sat most of the...

I was wondering if anyone sells a combination disk, renovator, planter unit. I had a renovator, which I sold a few years back. I believe it was a Hay King model (5 shank). I routinely had to raise (2) shanks to use since my tractor was only 55 HP and had trouble with 5 shanks. The reason I am...
