You're right, surge brakes. Used on boat trailers because the water submersion is hard on electric trailer brakes.
It's work, for sure. I've spent several days each week for the last few months running saws and equipment, cleaning up Helene and February ice...
Agreed. Tarps are a short-term solution at best. Better ones are getting expensive, and the cheap blue Harbor Freight ones don't last a year. I...
100 cords is an admirable goal! And quite a lot of volume to deal with. My original woodshed is 16' wide, 8' deep, and averages 8' tall (shed...
I've read enough to know that they don't cut like normal trees, and wounds inflicted by the fronds get some heinous infections set up in them due...
Take a look at these. They list the outside thread diameter at 2.75": AL-KO Oil Cap Kit, Screw-On For 7K-8K Al-ko Axles, 1997 And Newer,...
Very helpful tool, thanks for creating this.
Except for all the pollution crap on new tractors. No thanks. If anyone is offering farm-size diesel tractors without the DPF systems (and...
I'm guessing 425.
Indeed they do. Not so long ago my toddler daughter was proudly carrying small sticks of wood to me as I stacked the next winter's wood. Then just...
I'm so sorry to hear this. I know first hand how tough it is to lose a furry family member. It looks like he gave you lots of good memories to...
Not to be argumentative, it looks a lot like ash but it may also be tulip polar. The bark and the wood of both trees looks very much the same at...
Boy, you're not kidding. My splitter split everything I could lift onto it, but I had to flip some pieces and split down both sides, and even then...
Bobcats are particularly hard on turkey nests and sitting hens, I believe, but they are neat animals. Coyotes are hard on everything; I share your...
Yes, indeed, they are! I'm hoping to use the vertical feature on my splitter to halve these on the ground at the joint lines. If that doesn't...
Yes, this storm "blessed" us with plenty of firewood for the next few years. No felling needed except for the badly damaged trees that won't live...
Yep, there's a few in the background that I've noodled already, but they were smaller. Most of the time I only need to noodle a round partway then...
I'm not certain, but either pignut or mockernut. We only have those two and shagbark here, and it's not shagbark.
The recent ice storm we had really destroyed the woodland on our place and on my parent's farm. A large hickory tree at the edge of their back...
That’s called a shoulder bolt, made so that the threads can tighten and hold (usually!) while the smooth shoulder acts as a spacer so the plastic...
