Building a House with Wood

[Peter Minde]

Same!
Lol

I'm in a cure cottage. It even has its own Wikipedia page. Glorying in the space.

If you saw the garret that I lived in for 15 months after my wife and I split up, you'd understand.

Those piles are pretty big Harv. Maybe get that machine for a week.

One of my neighbors thinks I'm insane to do it with a walk behind.

Got me thinking.

You could just to buy a tractor. I can pick it out for you if that would help. I'm nice like that. You would be saving yourself 1200 long term

This is the way if you can swing it Harv.

They are stand-ons and are very quick with a good operator but yeah, that was my recommendation before I saw those piles and how much square footage you’re dealing with.

Moving the piles is easy. Spreading them correctly is what’s time consuming.

There will be more work to do in the Spring. Just concentrate on what you can do before everything freezes.

Got me thinking.

Doing my research . There's a Kubota dealer 25 miles from here, that will service in your garage.

It does make some sense, because I'm not finding anyone I trust to plow for me. And I need to move a bunch of dirt.

I have some steeper parts or the yard that intimidate me. I may try to get a stunt driver for the dicey-ist parts.

I find this so hard to believe I couldn't do the spreading by hand. But everyone is saying the same thing.

What I have already moved by wheelbarrow, was a PITA to move and easy to spread.

I may leave the driveway stone until spring.

Kubota has good financing and you can include the implements if you get them up front. If you get them later you are on your own.

If you buy them up front I think that warranty goes with them. It did with the attachments I bought for the John Deere.
Get chains Harv. Serious you need them

This is true
When I bought my tractor I was told this by the dealer. I got a mower deck, snowblower, FEL, cab, weights and chains.
They had 0 % for 36 months which I took full advantage of.
That was 20 years ago....LoL
But I still use the same tractor and have no plans to replace it unless something catastrophic happens to it.

I'd also recommend having the rear tires filled with beet juice.

 

[Ripitz]

Instead of a weight box, I use a rear PTO cone spreader and fill it with tube sand. I leave it in the bags until I’m done plowing and then kick it out if needed. I store them inside and dry. If you use wet sand it will freeze in your spreader, especially if left overnight.
