[QUOTE=DennisCTB;186790] My father in law is much like Arthur (Jerry Stiller) from "King of Queens".What would be best for me would be a Google Chromebox, but he loves to print and his printer is not network capable and I think cloud print would be confusing to him.But boy would that be the best for me, he only uses the browser anyway, no viruses, no software upgrade [/QUOTE]
Dennis, Epson makes a network printer for under a hundred and it works great, simple just select print, can also scan/copy and fax. might be more than you wanted, but it is all transparent to the user unless initiated from the printer.

My son and I have been trying our hand at trout fishing this season.

So far we have seen lots of people who have caught trout, but we are still empty handed.

Been trying to go to the stream as soon as is legal after the stocking day to no avail.

I have migrated from using worms to using powerbait. We got advice from an angler with 5 trout on his belt to get shorter light rod 4 to 4.5 feet, and use 4lb line, no swivels, tie your hook directly to line use very small weight.

We went out again last night with new Ugly Stiks light short rods and tackle as advised, as we drove to the stream true to form we saw a kid about nine being photographed by his dad with the biggest trout I have ever seen!

Well we were angling for a couple of hours and I'd have to say no bites, no strikes whatsoever, could of been in a bathtub at home.

We are still using 6 lb line as the 4 lb was sold out, doubt that would make a difference. We will keep at it.

Sooner or later I may have to go to the fish market and buy some trout so the wife thinks we are not complete duds LOL

I've had a little Deere pull behind, it holds about two bags, it is pretty much all plastic so it has held together plus I try to always rinse it as soon as I'm done. The concern I have had about a three point is like was said the weight on the little Kubota plus my bigger concern is that a tractor is something we normally don't replace very often so the fact that fertilizer is so corrosive that even small amounts that would get on the tractor might start some rust problems.

My 1999 MF 1225 grinds the gears when the 4wheel lever is pushed down to engage. It seems to engage, then pops-out. I can't find any way to adjust the lever. It just has a straight pin thru the lever and shaft. I don't have a service manual and the owners manual says nothing about front wheel adjustment. anyone have a working solution for this problem?

Wish I had looked at this before I bought a Pequea chipper.
My observations on the machine I have:

Nominal 5" size three point hitch hydraulic feed

The machine feed, as mentioned is not very good.
The discharge chute is very prone to plugging. It's cross section area is much larger than the blower outlet. I figure that the air flow slows right down when it enters the chute and the chips just hang there. I made a smaller cross section chute to solve the problem when I got not help from Pequea.
The hydraulic safety valve control leaver was made so that it bound against the chute plate and broke the connection pin. I fixed that.

The rotor is fastened to the main shaft with a taper lock bushing system. The factory had not tightened the bushing. The rotor walked on the shaft till the knives contacted the cutting anvil. Pequea sent me a new set of knives and anvil.
No offer of compensation for my time trouble shooting and fixing

The frame welding at the point where the top link connects had minimal penetration. The weld broke. The dealer fixed it but the welder was not at all skilled so the job looks terrible.
So, within months of purchase, the machine looks like its been to war and only works poorly

Thanks Dennis...I agree. Problem was a broken connection from the alternator to the wire harness. Cut off the old lug and crimped on a new one. The issue is now resolved.

I'm about 3 hours northeast of you, near Lake Simcoe.

The mower size is a coin toss, in heavy stuff the tractor will like a 4' unit a lot better, BUT, other than the first pass you can always just move over a bit and cut less than 5' per pass. This gives you the option to use the full 5' in light stuff though.

The other consideration though is price & availability, 5'ers are really common, you will likely pay as much, maybe more for a 4' unit than you would for a 5' unit.

Best of luck.

I'm using a product called CALBAR Shower-Proof WB in "[i]Tinner's Red[/i]". It's pricey, but is a one-coat application; primer and color coat in one. It goes on at a rate of 1 gallon per 200 sf. Only surface prep is to power wash the oxidized paint off before rolling.
