BX24

[djwill]

Today I finally pulled the trigger on a new BX24! Should be taking delivery on it early next week /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
I keep looking out the window already...waiting for it.

Months ago when I found this site I knew nothing about tractors...still know very little about them. But what I did learn from the many great posts on this site is that the BX line is a good sub-cut and will serve me well for what I want it for.
Thanks all /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

How much did your BX 24 cost?
Thanks!

Nice looking machine! If you have an area on your land that you don't care about... take it out there and use it to get some practice. When I got my B series I would mess the ground up just to smooth it back out again. It's good to get a little experience with it before you tackle more sensitive jobs.

Good luck and enjoy!

The brush forks really work better than I thought but, as good as I'd hoped. They are NOT a root rake but can dig, or be forced under, brush that is not still rooted. Example: brush covered with mud/silt in a creek.

I did have to beef up the 1/2" x 2" bar clamps cuz after a while they would loosen up due to flexing when I would flick them to throw entangled brush off of them. It was kinda fun to watch those forks fly for a while but got tired of having to put them back on /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif
