It is definitely a very suburban neighborhood over there but I have no problems driving the tractor around for farming supplies. I'll be driving it down Oakland St to the feed/grain store in the fall for a load of hay for the goats

LEGALIZE FREEDOM!
Had my Farmall 806D out today to mow a little bit of hay with the IH 990 mower conditioner. Only cut about 7 or 8 acres.

Purchased a used JD 336 baler last week with electric controlled thrower for $2900... get to bring that home tomorrow after work. Speaking of work, I almost mowed over this little guy last week while doing roadside mowing... poor little guy could hardly stand and walk. Fortunately, it lived to see another day.  " />

oh for the Pile of shiat crowd scrap is $2.85 a hundredDon't feel bad about the box blade work. They take some getting used to. I have a 5' Woods BB and I address the gravel drive and it's potholes at least once a year. I tend to leave it too flat despite my adjustments. Really I need a bunch more gravel to really have much to work with. Oh and my lawn looks like that with stuff that I'm not scrapping (tractor implements and stuff). I am resisting packing it all into the new garage while I have all the wiring, ceiling, insulation work to do yet. |
Used my '51 Super C to ted some hay this past week. One field I mowed was extremely wet, and made for tough baling...

Welp, my old garden boxes had to go, after 5+ years they were getting rotted out and I have no time to even care for a garden with my schedule.
Used my 1975 case 446 with the plow to knock down the dirt and spread it out, some i pushed off to the side to fill in low spots in other areas. Planted grass seed yesterday and did the tear out Friday after work, there was three 4x8 boxes, the first photo is after i built the first two in 2011, the third i put in later that year.

Used the 1025R around the house area helping the wife with some ornamental plantings (moving dirt & mulch, removing unwanted ground cover, etc.) After everything was in, went around doing some watering. Used a rig I set up a while back for use on the gator - an old plastic pickle barrel + 12v bilge pump = portable water. Set the barrel in the FEL bucket & powered it off a jump-box, the chain holds the bottom in, a strap around the top is looped around the chain at the back & keeps it from tipping out.
After the watering, she cleaned & refilled the bird baths...

I've been fighting the kink where my hose goes over the top of the barrel for so long. Thanks fish, don't know how common sense didn't get me there but you have shown me the light

Mowed some of my friends property today. Perfect day for it, mid 70's with a constant breeze and plenty of sunshine.

I'm building a 'tiny' cabin on my hunting property. It's located at the top of a hill and the road hasn't been passable for the pick up truck so I used the Kubota L3400 to haul materials and tools to the site.
 " />
Since I'm doing the construction pretty much single-handed, the tractor came in handy to lift 5/8 x 4 x 8 plywood sheathing up on to the rafters. They were too heavy for me but the tractor was up to the task.

I just lay a 35 gallon barrel horizontal in the FEL and have a hose plumbed through the bung. Raising the FEL generates head for decent pressure. A nozzle on the hose controls the flow. Simple, but to be honest I like your setup since the hills at my place make raising the loaded FEL dicey in some spots. |

There's and old hay field line up. 
There's and bedding spreader line up from a few weeks ago. Today I took off yesterday I sprayed 30 acres of hayfield but I didn't think to get a pic. Oh a garden pic from a few weeks ago on the baby Kubota.

  I could go the rest of my life without doing this shit again. Pulled 625ft of well pump and replaced. Last pic was with 150ft out and backed the tractor the rest of the way down my driveway to get it out. I'll do it different next time for sure, but for now, we've got water again. |
