Ya know there are companies that make bullet proof glass "polycarbonate" inserts for most skid loader doors.

All the folks I have talked to that have bought them said they still broke.

Another neighbor tree removal this morning.
33" this time.
That's a 24" bar on the 620p.

This one was about 20' from his shop.

That one’s worth milling..

Looks solid and straight.

I think there are a couple tiers of them.

The most robust requires new hardware.

A lot of $400 doors can be replaced for the cost of a new “bulletproof” at a cost of over $2k.

Good humpday morning fellas. 61 to 70 or so again, and the falling moistures may have moved east of us finally. However 3 days of moistures sure perked up stuff that grows.

Morning everybody.

Spent almost 4 hours getting 2.5" hitch out of truck. Made a 2" to 2.5" adapter to slide inside old one so I could pound it in to come out the front of hitch.

As much as I like the cooler temps, we need this week of hot and dry to get the rest of the corn out of the field and finish those fat bean pods out there before we get a frost..

And after 6+" of rain last week, them top pods are FAT!!

My youngest brother said Dad plunged into some corn but it was 18.5% so he started running some beans yesterday & they were testing 11.3%. I guess the circus is getting ready to start…

Good morning fellas. Sounds like we should be getting back to partial sunshine this afternoon. It's needed as the grass got long quick and needs cutting, funny what a couple of days of rain events will do.

 

[Sawdust Man]

I have set aside this weekend to making sawdust.

Decided to cut 6x6 posts for the new steer pen vs pipe.

Not cuz it’s better, but cuz I got logs and tar..
For free...

And a saw mill...
