I have had a BX, a B, and now an L. I'll mention the same thing I have told friends-if you aren't planning to mow lawn, strongly consider a B...
I'm a righty, but swing a bat, use a shovel, and split left handed. Used to drive my dad crazy. I play golf (poorly) right-handed but have taken a...
I plow out the neighborhood because several of the neighbors can't. My brother has several customers he plows for. He tries to make $2.00 a...
My brother and I have Kubota RTVs. We can haul a face cord at a time with racks on the bed. Use them for cutting in the woods-we can usually get...
I was fondling one at my local dealer yesterday-$919 with a 20" bar. I stopped for a 6 pack of mix oil, talked deer hunting for a half hour, and...
I liked it-and I don't say that lightly. My father was a self-employed excavator who also logged in the wintertime until the early 1970s. I spent...
This is some dated information, but the % are still relevant. My father was a logger in the 1950s-1970s. He stopped logging and went into the...
That's the way my father had us stack. We kept rows a foot apart to fill with misfits.
I have added No-Spills to my collection over the past few years. I think I have a 1 gallon for premix, a 2.5 gallon for e-free gas, 2 5 gallon...
One of the strange things I remember is my usual McD's meal as a hungry teenager-Big Mac, cheeseburger, large fries, Coke and an apple...
You guys got my memory working thinking of my teen years. We had a JDX4, a 300, a 600, a 440 Cyclone and a 340 Trailfire, The dealer's son was a...
Dad was good buddies with the JD dealer in our small town back in the 1970s. Had all sorts of JD stuff-pressure washer, salamander heaters,...
Thanks for the replies. Those Wranglers sound good. I'll have to look for a pair.
Trimmed the 500' ditch in front of property this morning, and then around the perimeter where it borders the woods. Wore jeans to protect my legs,...
I think you are the right track with the Kawasaki engine and serviceable hydros. I have a 2008 52" Toro commercial mower with a 23 hp Kawa-1275...
My local saw shop does it for 8 bucks a chain-but that's using a robot grinder that evens up the chain, and doesn't heat the metal so you can't...
Have cut all different sizes in my life. Started with 18" for the fireplace at my parent's home when I was growing up. Dad put a stove in the...
When I help my brother we can split and load a Kubota RTV that has racks with 1/3 cord 16" boiler wood (not left in huge chunks, but not fine) in...
It seems to run in cycles. I can remember when no one had wood heat in the early 1970s, only oil, then the 1973 oil embargo hit-it was wood heat...
I have had one for several years. Just a great saw, old school technology and plenty of power. I bought mine for several hundred dollars less than...
