Did you embed any conduits or anything in weight box to be able to carry things in it?

Weight box has 2 3” upright tubes to put shovel and rake type tools in. There is a slide door to make it easier to clean out box if filled with dirt and stones. I made a 9x9x16” box to stop cement from flowing into that area. Six bags of cement filled weight box to with in 5” of top. There is a good storage area in there. Manufacture claim weight box can hold up to 800 lbs of cement. With the 6 bags of cement and weight of box I should be close to 500 lbs.

65°F and no rain.

Yesterday didn’t go quite as planned. No mowing done. Not complaining though. After getting back from town, got focused on my LS tractor. Bottom line, I need to take it in to Dealer. 80 miles away. It may be a warranty issue but diagnostics first. That’s a 2 hr min. 2 hours is $308. If I had tech come here or I take tractor to Hilo shop I also have to pay travel. If I take to shop it stays until fixed, but onsite would require multiple trips most likely.
Today I will get neighbors trailer to load up.
Need to check that tractor is road worthy. Clean it up some.
H&F this afternoon at friends

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

Just wandered around the yard, picked up sticks. Took pics. Looking at the bushes planted too close to the house. Spraying the bugs on back of house last week worked, only saw a few, not thousands like before.

Currently 60F, wet, and mostly cloudy @ 13:00, some thunderstorms rolled through a bit ago. Another line of them from up around Ron's place trailing down through Indiana headed this way.

LWS shows 0.55" of precip since midnight.

Calling for a high of around 68F today.

Got weeds in swale in front yard all cut down, then raked and blown out yesterday. Also did same in flower bed up in front of shop. Hauled 2 1/2 cart loads of debris over to the compost and dumped it.

Set the mower down to 2 1/2" and ran it over what was left to chop it up.

Was a very beautiful and pleasant day, high temp hit 71.8F. Too windy to do any spraying though.

We took a couple of lawn chairs up with us and spent a little time just sitting and enjoying the beautiful weather.

After we finished up I ran down to the corner and got 7 gallons of gas for the Cub and filled up The Woman's car. Then refueled the Cub when I got back.

Woman was up before me this morning and (thankfully) ran the Cub over and parked it in the barn before it started raining.

She's now off taking a neighbor friend to work who is having some work done on her car.

Probably spend some time out in the garage today cleaning and straightening up while it's still warm, maybe tie up some loose ends on wiring.

Temps drop tomorrow and then really fall this coming Sunday (44F/27F) ... then back to more seasonal temps after that with highs in the 40's and 50's.

Hope everyone is having a decent Thursday ...

Buppies, whenever I have gastrointestinal issues I think of the bathroom as my best friend. Way better than in the bed.

Back from town, picked up the bills/mail and am now working my way through a family sized bag of smokey bacon potato chips.

May have sound sleep tonight Buppies.

I won't swear to but as I recall those were a fairly low pressure system, I'm thinking maybe a bit under 2000 psi.

Nope. The D-17 has a high pressure, low volume system. Should be 3k if working okay (3200 actually - when new). The four way control for the remote supposedly has an internal bypass that limits the psi to ~1k, for the implement hydraulics. Once I get the gauge from NAPA, I can test and maybe/hopefully just remove the remote valve of restore to Allis's original design. I don't want to pull the back off this thing to fix a cylinder or internal hose (known issue).
