    She's earning her keep, So nice having something new. Got so much yaad work to do. Next purchase is the man basket for tree trimming, Then a sub soiler. York rake, back blade or box blade and then the 48" tiller. Maybe a grapple too?

    Nippy here (33 degrees F) and fired up the biomass stove once again. That unseasonal summer like weather has vanished. Sure it will come back soon however.

    Get yourself a used IBC tote and can the liner and use the cage for a man basket. Little careful cutting with a cutoff wheel will allow you to access the cage without having to climb over the top of it.

    Have 4 of them. One is a 'man basket', the other 3 are rain collectors from the eavestroughs on the shop for wash down of farm equipment and cars. Our well water sucks here, lots if calcium.

    You can pick up used (and cleaned) IBC totes real cheap. all over FB marketplace and CL.

    Which Li'l red tractor did you get ???? Is it a Mahindra Max

    We bought a MAX 22 back in 2013 IIRC Been a great rig.........

    Big enough to get a lot of work done...Small enough to get in and around trees and bushes....
    We have a 4 foot mow deck on the 3 point

    Handy for feeding the horses and a lot of other work....

    When the Daughter and Son in law come over their two Aussie Shepherds will jump in the front bucket and ride.....
