Early FEL training.. Was moving organic matter into the compost pile. Had the edge of the bucket against a small tree, dumpped the bucket and hit the tree.

Like we say in the shop "we learn through suffering and we are learning a lot". A small car jack and some shoring and you can straighten that bend right out in ten minutes

Those buckets on a 1846QT are pretty flimsy to begin with , I bent mine on day 2 of the learning experience:). Like Buck said, a hydraulic jack will put things back to normal. I ended up welding some 3/8 reinforcement plate along the top and back of the bucket, along with some hooks. no problems since.

I wish it was that nice here in Nebraska!! And I love to see some fresh dirt tilled. Honestly the bucket on my Koyker isn't real thick either, maybe more than yours though. Glad you were able to play hookie today!

Went on permanent suspension. 10yrs. in a few more weeks. I get up if or when I have to. The if I ever get again up wasn't a very good one.
And it's is funny that I rarely even drink a Beer anymore either. There's a few in the fridge that's been there for weeks. New Years I bet....... I'm also with you on the garden delights. I actually had to break open a can of Collard Grns. just the other night. I literally ate the whole can.............

Thanks Kenmac, I will need it.

I am in the same boat Clemsonfor is, it is still a hard winter here. I am patiently waiting for spring to arrive so I can get some more seat time. As for the beer part, well lets say I have enough stress to justify my beer fridge being full for now.
