2008 Kubota 2350
Hi all. I really enjoy this site. I was raised out in Missouri and worked on a large farm (1000+ acres) growing up in the early 80's (soy-beans, corn, milo, and feeder-cattle). I got to drive big tractors (at the time anyway) like Case 2590, 2090, and Allis Chalmers 7060.
I live in a somewhat rural area in MD now, and finally got a used tractor for myself to play around with. Its a Kubota BX2350 with a few attachments like roto-tiller and 60" belly mower. Of course i got a nice carry-all which i love.
The tractor was somewhat neglected when i got it as the paint was really starting to fade, the fluids had not been changed in several years (as per the date on filters). It only had about 200hrs on it (2008 model) so its still pretty young. I changed the fluids and filters and spent a bunch of time cleaning gunk off of everything.
Here is a short clip of the rig:

Happy New Year to everyone.

Thank you TexasJohn. Appreciate the kind words. My next project may be a snow plow for the bucket. I thought about buying the one from BXpanded, but it might be more fun to go buy an older used myers 6' blade/plow and fabricate something custom that would keep as close as possible to the bucket while still allowing some angle. However, if I go that route.. it means i will need to buy an Acetylene or MAP torch outfit, or a plasma cutter. $$Ouch!

Can't have too many tools to make good stuff for your tractor!! Numerous threads on TBN mention various ways to cut metal and the pros and cons of each...search is your friend.

Welcome to TBN. Please edit your profile and remove the youtube URL from the tractor description.. It's spilling out onto the page and overwriting some of your text.
