    How to tackle no-start low battery (days below -20F)

    If I had a tractor at a remote location I would plumb it and my pickup so I could circulate warm coolant from my pickup to the tractor engine via quick disconnects and heater hose. I've lived in Wis and Alaska for 67 years, I know a thing or two about cold weather!

    What a mess!!!

    I've bladed thousands of miles of roads, summer and winter. Unless the road was completely covered with fines and compacted smooth this will be the result. The 3/4" rock has a lot of surface area for wet snow to attach itself to, even if you hold the blade up it will pick up rock. The only other...

    Shop Floor

    Foam board under the slab keeps the floor from sweating on warm humid days. Concrete will pull moisture from the ground, at least install some sort of vapor barrier.

    Sticker Shock

    I paid 700$ two months ago to have a 65' 36" at the stump white oak taken down. I could have had a grandson climb up and tie a cable to it and hook a tractor on it to keep it off the house as it was about 10' off the house and leaning that way. 700$ was cheap for me, 3 guys 2 1/2 hours and one...

    Does anyone have an Evolution metal chopsaw?

    I just use an old Skil saw with a metal cutting blade, cutting 3/4 plate works fine. Don't push to hard and blades seem to last a reasonable amount.
