I really like your road grader ( pic 1-2-3 ) and how does that tractor game work ? That looks like fun

I put on a tractor rodeo (tractor driving competition).
Here is the link to the tractor rodeo rules:

Here are some pictures of the tractor rodeo:

I like the tractor balance thing, and the short trailer backing that must be hard to do and I have the idea of the tennis ball thing now.
What size channel did you use on your road grader/land plane? I've been wanting to make one like that.

Love the log splitter, although I think that the beautiful green paint my have a little to do with it. The christmas tree holder is great, the little glass tube on the side makes it superb. Outstanding work.

That leveler is 9 foot wide so I used 10 inch channel iron. It works very well.
My Father built one that is 6 foot wide and used 5 inch channel if I remember right.

WoW!! thats heavy. How long is your boom pole and how much do you think it will lift straight out horizontal? I have one that will pick up almost 1,000 pounds

I believe the boom pole used with the fork lift attatchment as pictured has lifted a 55 gallon full of solid concrete. My Dad thinks it weights 2000 lbs. Actually the boom pole is rarely used. I think if Dad didnt lone me his loader tractor it would be used much more often though.
