    Clear fence rows, load logs, push brush, stack totes, load the dump truck, dig creek gravel, and drive around with a bigass grin on my face...

    All the brush from a 19" DBH red oak. Two shoves, had to back up once to change angles.

    Lookking all of these tractors, I want to scrap my idea of a 4-wheeler and get a small bucket loader. My mouth is drooling with all of these great pictures.

    No that KW belongs to the farmer in Illinois that we bought the 4440 from.

    Just was looking back through this thread for inspiration for tractor or skid loader attachments, thought I'd give it a bump for any new-comers that have iron to show off!

    Great idea FarmHand78. I love checking out tractors. One day I will have one, but right now, I'm still on the beg/borrow plan. Very jealous of everyone on this thread.

    This thread popped up at a cool moment. We just got a "new" firewood fetching tool. We pulled several logs out of a tangled pile yesterday with it that would have just been burned. It allowed us to make firewood where there would have only been waste. :)

    I rarely rant, but can't hold myself back. All of you with your large properties and beautiful tractors **bleep**. It must be nice to be able to rub it into our faces. Buwahahaha. Just kidding as I hope you already figured that out.


    Keep the great pics coming so I might live vicariously thru all of you.

    I'm a very simple........but hard working feller.

    That MF300 loader first came my way as a basket case that was disassembled and given up on. The guy that took it apart had died, and it had to go. I bought it for nearly nothing and restored it.

    It was sold after I did all I wanted to do with it........but it came back home when I needed it again. I'm gonna call it Boomerang. lol

    Those track loaders are handy as a shirt pocket.
    When you're done with it, drive it on over to my place Randy.

    I was very surprised that Doyle traded me that loader Matt. Jon and I had just finished doing a metal roofing job for him......and he said he had a couple more small jobs that he wanted done. I said that we'd be glad to help out.......and he said I'll trade you that old loader for doing them. Coulda knocked me over with a feather.
