    JD D105 mower

    Hi there I have a d105. I have had it a couple of years only done about 100 hours. I have recently changed the oil and put a new belt on. Just wondering if anyone can recommend any good DIY mods that will boost my mower? I am going to disable the riio switch next after watching a vid on you tube.

    Stihl chain.

    So I bought my self a really good echo saw recently. Love that saw. My Stihl dealer is the closest store. I just bought a replacement chain there recently. So now I have a echo saw with a compatible Stihl chain. Anyone ever done this before? Good or bad idea?

    Battery Powered Chainsaw

    More a comment on electric saws. I have an Ozito brand elec saw. Very happy. It came with a 3/8p safety chain. I got Stihl brand Chain for it great up grade. Go Milwaukie as you already have the batteries. My tip is you need a battery in use and a spare who is on the charger or ready to go. It’s...

    Hyd top link question

    Hi I have a Kubota M7040. I would like to add a top link. What’s the go. Some are advertised just a ram others with an anti creep. Some sell the hose kit seperate. Then there are eBay ones half the price of brand name ones. What am I missing? Any advice appreciated.

    Cordless Power Tool purchase question.

    Thanks for the feed back. Sounds like it’s Dewalt or Milwaukie for me. Might come down to warranty period. Hikoki have the longest warranty but more expensive to start.

    Cordless Power Tool purchase question.

    My first drill was a Bosch. Bosch are the most disappointing equipment, drill, oven, hot water unit. Pay for the name, great to use and then to get them fixed is impossible or horrendous. Bosch is a real swear word. Yeah. The Ozito is great gear. I was shrinking about going a little upmarket. I...

    Cordless Power Tool purchase question.

    Hello Gang. I am looking at buying a 3 piece cordless tool kit. I was all set to buy Milwaukie until today. My local store told me that the after sales on any warranty or breakdowns was very poor and as a salesperson he found it an unpleasant experience. So now I am wondering if I should look at...

    Cheap saws.

    Hi Guys. I just sold a big Stihl and bought a mid size Echo. Good I’m happy with that. But I have been watching some cheapest on Amazon, Chinese saw unboxings on You Tube. How do these cheaper saws stack up? Fair discount on them. These Baumar Ag seem popular in Oz. I must admit I am not fond of...

    Saw Chain.

    Hey Guys. Just bought a new Echo saw. Got told Stihl saw chain and files were the best. My chain is .325, 058gauge, 72 drive link, semi chisel suit 18 inch bar. Is that a Stihl type chain that I could quote those numbers at Stihl dealer and put on the echo?

    Stihl MS460 downsize or die with.

    Thanks great tip. As an overall I am looking at a new drill, impact driver cordless grinder combo. So I am now keeping in mind cordless chainsaw. Not full of piss and vinegar. That’s defiantly where I am coming from. I’m not trying to take the world over anymore. Just polishing the piece I hold😜

    Stihl MS460 downsize or die with.

    Wow nice collection. I looked up the CS490. Not sure if we they are still available. Yeah not a fan of the Pico chain. 3/8 or 325 suit me best. As much as anything I feel like swapping to the Echo because I have never looked at anything but Stihl. I don’t like the smaller stools like 291 they...

    Stihl MS460 downsize or die with.

    Thanks guys for the feedback. I have the mentality if I am not going to use a machine or tool again and it’s worth dollars trade and swing the dollars into something else. The saw I i n is a great saw but I bought it for a big farm with lots of bush. Realistically if I bought a saw for my patch...

    Stihl MS460 downsize or die with.

    Should of mentioned. Looking at the Echo because the local dealer ticks the boxes. Don’t rate the Husky dealer in town and not sure if I need another Stihl.

    Grader blade or Box scraper

    Hi Everyone. I have a question. I have a 500 meter driveway and need to crown it a bit, fill the pot holes and grade the track twice a year. Should I buy a 3 point grader blade or a box scrapper with rippers? My thinking is the box scrapper could be used as an implement to smooth paddocks and...

    Hydraulic issue loader

    It's a great tractor. You get a lot of tractor for your dollar. I looked at a comparable John Deere model. The Kubota had the flat platform floor and a few things made me get it and I have not been disappointed.
