  My $.02 on this from what I know. A rural I.S.D 8 miles from me has a high school trap and skeet team.
  There are (maybe) 20 schools in the state that have a trap team. I'm not truly clear on the age r...

• Posted in thread: What has broken on your Tractor? on 05/09/2011 at 8:36PM
  I've got over 400hrs on my Bota L3400 and have just done regular routine maintenance on it. The paint on
  the hood is starting to fade, but other than that, no gripes. The tractor I had before that was...

  I've seen 3pt splitters for sale on the interwebs that run a hydraulic pump off the spline shaft on the

  I live on a poorly maintained county road so I just widened the existing ditch with my FEL and box blade,
  threw in the tin horn and covered it with 1-1/2 crusher run gravel. The county here doesnt car...

• Posted in thread: 3pt question. on 12/15/2010 at 12:41PM
  I don't know that the hydraulic top links will provide that much downward pressure. I think they just
  adjust the fore and aft angle of your implement like adjusting how deep your box blade will scrape...

  Since it doesnt have glow plugs I'd try one of those el-cheapo crankcase dipstick block heaters and see
