    Craziest thing you've done out a necessity

    Lug bolts sheared on 1 ton dump while spreading salt in snow storm. Picked the one side of the truck up with the skid loader and slowly got the truck on my skid loader trailer. Had one of my guys sit in the dump truck on the trailer and run the controls on the salt spreader while I pulled...

    Grease gun recommendation

    I have had quite a few threw the years from manual to air to now we are on battery ones. Trailers still have manual ones mounted as a just in case. As far as the battery ones go. I have a few Lincolns that all sit on a shelf now as the battery's are stone age technology and just do not last...

    Bathroom in shop.

    And the shower... I would not personally waste the space. I have piped quite a few shop bathrooms with showers that end up becoming closets. When I built my shop, I put a "powder room sized" bathroom with a stool and a urinal then on the outside of the room I piped a slop sink in the shop area...

    Bathroom in shop.

    At all depends on what exactly you get. I have holding tanks at my shop for anything that goes into the trench drains. They are concrete tanks with an inlet only and a float operated tank alarm that goes off in the building when they are full. They are installed just below grade and I have not...

    Bathroom in shop.

    If you do not care about the health department... The comments are correct about when you go to sell, it will have to be inspected and you might run into an issue... might not. I would make your own little septic system for that bathroom. You can buy a 300 gallon poly septic tank at your...

    Did I mess up ??

    Or when there are a bunch of the same thing, buy in the middle, first goes high, middle ones go good, last one goes higher than the first as all the guys who thought if they keep waiting someone out the next will be cheaper... wish I could say that I was not that last guy a couple of times in...

    Trying to find dad's 560

    I am truly at peace, it is just that little extra thing that makes you go nuts when you think you are this close, but cannot figure it for sure... The fenders I know someone added at some point the tractors history. They are oliver fenders from an 1850 by my guess. Paint is not a match and...

    Trying to find dad's 560

    Spent Sunday morning searching dad's old records while they were out of town desperately searching for a serial number. I have the dates that they were purchased, his farm deprecation logs, expense logs. I can tell when head gaskets were done, what belts were changed, when anti freeze was...

    to farm or not to farm...

    This is very well put! My dad farmed, I went into construction. I am blessed that make a great living doing what I do. Would love to be farming and find myself still working for local farmers when they need a guy to fill in on a machine. But in all reality, the numbers that you run are...

    Bobcat S205

    How big of round bales??? If you have smaller round bales, should be fine. It is rated for 2000lbs or so, but might be a little tippy when up in the air with a 6ft bale depending on the density.

    Amazed at the harvest

    Humbling isn't it. It would take months for my dad to do our home farm with his Massey 300 with a 3 row head. The "big hitter" guys who do that farm know roll in with a pile of deere rotary machines, grain carts, and semis line the road. They are are done in 1 day... :roll:
