    Using Railroad Track for bridge beams

    We are replacing all the 90 lb rail (90lbs/foot) at our plant with 120 lb rail to serve today's larger cars. I now have access to sticks of the 90lb rail in various lengths (most 20+ ft) at no cost. I need to build a bridge to get my Kubota M6800 across a creek on my farm. A couple of times a...

    Buying land that has a natural gas line on it?

    Not natural gas but a utility right of way situation... I bought several hundred acres of timbered land in West TN that has a TVA electric powerline running on the south end of the property. It is away from any potential building or lake sites so it didn't really bother me when I was looking...

    Strange things found in the forest

    A couple of years ago we bought 300 wooded acres in West TN. I was walking it shortly after purchase and ran across this section of pallet racking set up as a deer stand. It is at least half a mile from the nearest trail or road. Wouldn't want to be the guy that horsed those uprights through...

    Horse power vs tiller width

    I've been looking to get a tiller to use with my Kubota M6800. PTO HP rated at 62. Two "rules" of thumb in this thread: "Rule of thumb is 1 foot of width per 5 pto ponies." 62 HP/5 = 12 feet of tiller "Over here we work on 1 inch per hp." 62HP = 62" or 5 feet of tiller I don't have a lot...

    Farm UTV/RTV Purchase

    I have a Kawasaki Mule Pro FXT that I'm very pleased with on my hilly 300 acres in W. Tennessee. It'll hold 6 adults - it's intimate but can be done. The back seat folds up to increase the bed size and the bed dumps easily. I think it's one of if not the quietest machine in this class. We...

    Terrified of tipping - how about an inclinometer?

    I’m in the same boat... I bought a very hilly piece of property in west TN. Very nervous about some of the areas that need to be cut. I put this on my Kubota M6800. It’s more to help me learn where my comfort level ends than to push the edge of the envelope of the tractor’s limits. I used...
