    Grapple

    Just got my first grapple and boy I sure wish I had had that 20 years ago. Took me two months to find one to fit my John Deere but turns out my local tractor/farm equipment dealer had one in his yard. Moved four brush piles dirt free, ready to burn in about two hours. It's an Armstrong grapple...

    Quick Hitch

    I usually don't go here for advice but I'm at the end of my rope. I'm trying to get a grapple for my Koyker 510 FEL or a JD FEL. I've found several grapples but ALL of them seem to have a "Universal" quick hitch connection or a skid steer attachment. Koyker does not make a grapple like I...

    IH 1486 brake problem

    My old IH 1486 has a brake issue . It take about 2 seconds for the brakes to apply. It's been in the shop twice for the same issue. Both times the mechanic says he bled the brakes and it seemed to work for a few hours but always returns to the same problem. Any ideas. EVERYTHING on this tractor...

    Chinese ammo

    Anyone had any experience with this junk? I bought 200 rounds of 22LR ammo a couple of years ago, didn't really pay any attention to it. The box kinda looked like Federal ammo. In fact the rounds are marked with an "F". I put 12 rounds in a new 22 semi auto and gave it to my grandson to go...

    Have you noticed

    ..the reappearance of spanish moss? For more than 30 years spanish moss had vanished from the trees on my property and now, for the past year or so it's making a comeback. My trees are covered with long, "hangy", grey strands of the moss. Really looks cool. I'm expecting Rhett Butler to step out...

    What is it?

    I happen to be in deep east Texas a couple of weeks ago visiting some kin folks. While we were there my cousin got a phone call from the foreman on one of the BIG ranches there to come fix their compressor. We went and fixed their compressor and they were mixing feed for their animals. One of...

    Dozers

    First, let me say I know absolutely nothing about dozers except they are pretty darn expensive to buy and repair. I see dozers priced all over the page and I don't understand why one (for example) D6R w/3000 hrs, OROPS, new undercarriage, etc, etc asking price $29,000.00 and another one, same...

    Flail mower

    I'm in the market for a flail mower (I think) and need advice from someone who has actually used one. There are several manufacturers and it seems like a lot of them are Italian. I've had bad experience with Italian equipment so ….? Also, will a NAA Ford gasoline tractor (25 hp?) pull a 5' flail...

    Sprint car races

    Just got back from the sprint car nationals in Knoxville, Iowa. Holy cow those guys run hard. Those Iowans are nice folks and they do love their races. Don't like their starting process because the truly fast cars start in the middle/back. When there is only 200 milliseconds between the fastest...

    Locked thread

    Don't know who the mod was that locked the thread but PM me if you don't mind. I really didn't think it would fly, I just wanted to know if I had edited the article to take out some of the more rational statements would it have stayed for discussion? Thanks.

    Factual or ???

    Just ran across this and wanted opinions. It is not intended to be political. Ask any person between the ages of 18 and 25 if they ever heard of the Nuremburg Trials. One in 13 might say they have, but will not be able to tell you “what” was on trial (not who). Those same people will not be...

    Fishing

    Looks like fishing along the Texas coast is going to be down for another several weeks what with all the fresh water draining into the bays. Dang it. On the up side we really needed the rain.

    Hijack

    I didn't want to hijack the thread about "I hate to build fence" so I thought I'd start a new thread. I'm sorry to hear that "fence" got banned from this site. Hook too. I didn't read the posts that got them kicked off but I guess it was pretty bad. Sometimes we just got to vent and this is a...

    Bad experience this morning

    I've never been accused of being a tree hugger or in bed with PETA but this morning I stopped by my local ACE hardware store to pick up a couple of things. Just inside the doors by the registers were three "cages" containing baby chicks, ducks and guineas. I assume they were there in preparation...

    Trouble with IRS

    Dang, I just got another phone call that I'm being sued by the IRS and I should call the number given and they can help. I'm shakin' in my boots. They're gonna help the IRS sue me or they gonna help me fight the suit?
