I thought everybody had problem with these hydrandts. Mine only last 2-3 years. Maybe my problem is the shallow water table. Mine rust out at the bottom of the weep hole. Our water table goes from 1-5' over the year.

You would have to figure out if straight axels would make your wheels rub on your fender. Trailer axels are meant to be bent. But it sounds like yours are bent in the wrong direction. They should have the hump on the top. If they have the hump on the bottom, then they need replaced.

I tried that this year, but I added oats. It grew pretty good. The nice thing about that kind of mix is that it all goes to seed in early summer. Mow it and do a light disking and you don't have to spend any money on seed.

I have been planting food plots in SE Michigan. I have tried: Corn - Deer and Racoons eat it all up in July if the the surrounding fields aren't corn. If the surrounding fields are corn, then they won't touch the stuff. Brassica - The deer barely touch it in SE Michigan. Farther north, they...

I would like to know how to avoid a stealing cheat. Or I would like to hear the story of the "Stealing Cheat"

Tractorhouse and ebay. I bought one on ebay for $1,800 a couple of years ago. It turned out to be a pretty good planter. I never thought about building up the augers. We rebuild our drilling augers and you have to be a pretty good welder to run a beed down the flights. It would also...

Looks like somebody is still using that rake, or you just moved it to that spot.

I sprayed it. That disk would take forever to brush on. Line them all up and spray them in a couple of hours. Then move on to the next project.

I painted some equipment about 5-8 years ago. I knocked off any loose rust and painted it with the paint from Tractor Supply. It wasn't a professional job, but it still looks fine today.

What country do you live in. You are required to file taxes, if you are making money.

60 lbs was a guess. Shelled Corn 56 lbs/bushel Corn (in ear) 70 lbs/bushel

If I am doing my math right, that seems a riduculously low price. 122000 lbs @ 60 lbs/bushel = 2033 bushel 2033 bushel @ $6.50/bushel = $13,200 worth of corn. We fatten our feeder cattle on whole shelled corn and vitamins and hay. They taste great, but it is hard to make a profit. Our only...

How about a fuel pump relay

Its easy to convert from a grass grower to a corn grower if you can make over $500 per acre growing corn. I have been ripping out fence rows, cutting down big trees that shade the fields, and clearing brush all winter.

How about round-up and no-till.
