Your son does reverse karaoke very well. Most folks buy the music to sing along but you Shorts always have to be different.
He sure makes that 6 string sound good.

There's a noreaster supposed to form up down here early in the week so you should get it by Thursday, In case you were needing some more snow.

Thank you sir. When he was a young teenager I bought him an American Strat. He was sooo proud to get it. He would look at it and was so proud to see "Made In The USA" on the headstock.

He played it for 3-4 hours every day and learned how to master it. He's playing that same guitar in the video. Some of the other guitars you see in the background was hand built by his little brother. Kathy and I are very proud of them.
Well we got a dusting of snow last night. I was kinda liking seeing the grass

Ha, I knew it, your wife is the brains of your operation, :thumbsup:I'm surprised you admitted it. seriously though you can't think of everything.
I think your wife should be in more of these videos, I would very much love to see her telling you what to do. or should I say showing you how it;s done. you two make a good team. Who does all your Christmas decorations ? you did a great job in another video I watched. I like that Christmas video. You two certainly know how to enjoy life. Once the kids are grown, Christmas is not the same, but for you guys, you keep it going. It was nice to see your yard decorated so well.
For other TBN members, Paul makes some nice videos, if you haven't checked them out on Youtube, you should.

Waxman the truth of the matter is she threatened me if I didn't give her credit :laughing: She's a great women and very smart. I still can't figure out why she even married me if she's so smart :confused3:

She is very camera shy. We've had to do national tv appearances in the past and she said "no way" so I had to do it alone with he standing just outside the camera lens. Not going to she her on many videos, there's a better chance of seeing Elvis on our videos than Kathy :laughing:

Well the Christmas decorations are a joint project. It takes us four days to put them up. Where we are located in the town is a great location for the display. People drop in from all over to see them. We actually won the commercial award this year for them but have also won in the past. We like to put them up so the children in town can see them. It's fun, we enjoy it.

Something's heading your way today and you'll see a bonus in with it. It's kind of like an award for the fine work you do so be on the look out

Gee Eric it's great to hear your getting somewhere with your charging issues. Good lord I've got to say that I'm really disappointed in Kubota building a new tractor and not designing it to handle some basic electrical components that it has.

Couldn't have been much r&d done there :shocked:

Hope they stay on top that issue for 60 series owners now and don't drop the ball. This is another reason tractor manufactures need to start using the latest technology such as L.E.D. Lighting. It would make it much easier on their electrical systems.

As for our snow. It's gone! All of it! We had record amounts of snow in December and in the last 12 days it's been warm with rain and wind and we lost over 101 cm's of the white stuff. We actually walked out on the bare grass and picked up our Christmas decorations last week. Crazy weather.

It was so warm here yesterday I decided to do a job out in my shop that was intended to be done this coming spring and it was just like spring outside. :confused3:

I completely agree with you. I was really surprised myself when I first saw the L60 series and found out that Kubota didn't utilize LED lighting. Seems like just about everything today is using LEDs and with the ban on producing domestic incandescent light bulbs, you'd think they would have jumped at the opportunity to start integrating them into their tractor line-up.

Glad to hear all the snow is gone. It's so much easier to move around and get projects done without all the snow in the way.

Also, nice job your new waste oil tank installation. In addition, I also really like your Fill-Rite diesel tank pump! :thumbsup:

Thanks Eric. Yes the manufactures are missing the boat on the LED lighting or maybe it's just to costly at this point to consider them :confused3: They got some catching up to do becuase a lot of tractor owners are retrofetting teir own machines now on their own.

We had some more snow yesterday but it rained again last night so most of it is gone again. They say IF you don't like the weather in Newfoundland just wait 15 minutes and it will change.

Glad you enjoyed the video. Did another one yesterday.

Your Kwik Con has many possibilities , When you build the hydraulic thumb you could make a wider, lightweight, interchange grapple bucket with the Kwik- Con mount.

I love using the thumb on my Bh92 The things I do with my hydraulic thumb are unbelievable, not to mention fun. You could even make a Kwik -Con "shear" for cutting branches with your thumb. Shear the branch while the backhoe holds it, then gently lower the small branch to the ground. Instead of what I do now just rip the branch from the tree with my thumb like some hungry prehistoric reptile.
You can also make an adaptor for picking up cut logs and splitting wood with the thumb. Pick up the 16 inch log lengthwise and use the thumb with your Kwik Con mall set up to split it? All items interchange in seconds as you have shown. Maybe the BX does not have the power or reach I don't know, but there could be lots of options now that you unveiled the....Kwik-Con :thumbsup: .

Here is a video I found on Youtube of something similar of what I'm talking about.

Thanks for sharing the video of your son playing the guitar. One thing I enjoy seeing someone play any kind of music, and it sounds like an oxymoron, you can see the music. And yes, its a classic song I hadn't heard in years.

 

[dragoneggs]

Another nice job Paul... and a great little project that adds to the Kwik-con legend that is being born!

 

[Jim Shooz]

Great project and well designed and well executed.

One observation of my own behavior. It was an automatic instinct that when you were welding I automatically looked away. Even though my head was telling my I was only looking at a screen, I still couldn't bring myself to watch the welding. Weird.

 

[wmonroe]

Great video Paul. I always enjoy watching your creations.

 

[rblochli]

Great job!

Waxman - that splitter would be a heck of a lot of fun!
