Ummmmm Regular Expressions eh!<br>

I love em, I think I do need to enhance the search features significantly, I do not think I will go as far as regex though.<br>
<br>
The first thing I will do is make it so you can use more than one term so that it splits it into the number of parameters supplied.<br>
<br>
The other thing that I think would be good would be returning the fragments messages that match the search rather than the parent subject list.<br>

I think for the barn, I might go the route of Murf as he used an old radiator, fan and water feed. He must have a drip pan underneith as he says he runs cold water through it in the summer and cools the shop also.

It appears to be something that carries over to alot years. My Boss has a JD 4100 series that is a couple years old. He went to pick up his tractor at the dealer. ( He drives it there and back it is only a mile away ) on his way out he saw a new 4115 with a front snow blower and thought " that looks interesting, I wonder? So he stopped his tractor. Took the key and hopped on the 4115. It started right up and he played with the snow blower a little and then hopped back off and back on his and drove home. The dealer never even came out to see what was going on. Guess it is a good thing that he is honest. It made me nervous though and I leave mine in the garage and the truck outside locked up. Until I get the barn built with locks on the doors.

I am in the business of installing flagpoles. We normally dig holes in sizes from 2'(wide)X 3-1/2'(deep) up to 4'(wide)X 8'(deep). We currently dig them by hand and we're looking for a faster and easier way. I am in new england and it seems too 'rocky' for an auger. We are looking at the BX23 and the B21 but really don't know if a backhoe would make digging easier for us or harder in the long run. The holes we dig need to be pretty plumb and we are concerned that the 'walls' might be too disturbed since the backhoe motions are in arcs. Can the backhoe motions create a pretty plumb hole without having to backfill too much? Our poles rely on the strength of the walls. Ofcourse we cement the poles in in the final stage. We might need to consider sonotubes now, but do you think a backhoe would be beneficial to us? You input would be greatly appreciated. We will renting when the ground thaws to try this out.

I'm thinking that a container may not have the width inside. Could get one I would think and drive into it, but then what? Could you get good access to it from side? Run a floor jack under it? Stuff like that. Sure would be easy to get a sprayer and paint it to look OK. Probably not too much more to get one a bit wider for service access and rolling other things by it to use all the length for stoarge and such.

We have a slab (28x16) along side the house. Put up one of those white (w/powder coated poles) 20x10 nylon-caoted fabric cover deals. Got if from Costco a few years back as temp storage. Of course the 'temp' part is variable. My 7510 goes in nicely with plenty of room all around. Just recently power washed the wholet thing to remove green stuff. Looks brand new. I attached the feet with 1/4" nail-ins to slab. Very sturdy actually. Could very easily have istalled over a floor of 12x12 concrete pavers from Wal-Mart for .97 each. Thus not a permanenet fixture.

good luck, have fun

Mark..the low wing was a Bowers Flybaby. It wasn't a racer and was powered by a 65hp Continental. It started my passion for aerobatics. I sold all of the aircraft over the last 2 years. We spend most free time on our boat. I have a Super Cub when I need it for free in return for my teaching the owner's son how to fly.

Flying full time air taxi wore me out. 800hrs/year..mostly in the summer. Tractoring & catching shrimp & halibut are good enough for now.

Glad your tractor incident had a happy ending. We sure don't need major problems at our age.

Frank, thats exactly what I wanted to know!

I just put the power beyond in myself (finished today), and it wasn't that difficult.

I was curious as to
what other work was required for the backhoe since the price quote included about $700 in labor for predelivery workorders (including the power beyond) and you have answered that question.

You just got to look hard enough. I got a $1500 millcreek with $400 worth of weights for $375 plus tax. I put $44 in new bushings, 6 hours sandblasting and glass beading everything, 1 hour of frame straighting and rewelding and $12 in paint. It works like a champ. I got 4-60LB, 2-95LB, 3-70LB weights on top of the 430lb airator. Thats plenty of weight for a 60" airator. I use it to make a living and people only want their lawn done with core airators not spiked.

By the way the Mill creek airators are the best. Since their frame is made from 1.5" solid square bar, 3/8" by 3" flat bar and 1/4" by 2" flat bar. It hurts like heck when you drop it on your foot taking it off the tractor.

If your going to buy a tractor for a loader only machine than the B7410 is not a good idea. My dealer won't even sell you a B7410 with a loader. You need a B7510 because it has power steering. With any weight in the bucket you couldn't can't turn the steering wheel if your not moving. The B7510 has both a gear and a hydro model. The gear version is not much of a price difference over the B7410. Or look a BX series. You will be very unhappy with its performance while using the loader. Also look at the LA302 loader, is only a little more but you get a grill gaurd and a heavier lift capacity.

The BX23 has a heavier frame on it to handle the hoe. It worth spending the money now. Plus kubota voids the warrenty if you put an after market hoe or loader on their tractor.

I am surprised that I don't see seights & chains for the snowblowing chores or did you just not have time to get a pix of the tractor with the chains on. We sure didn't have any timely breaks from moving snow here 20 miles north of Syracuse, NY. I still have 3 feet of compacted snow in the front yard and 5 more inches forecasted for the next 24 hours. Oh well, I'll enjoy spring that much more whenever it arrives. :)

Thanks for that info- I would definately want to have that ability to float the FEL for back-dragging or especially snow removal! The dealer here in Harrisburg is new, and unfamiliar with this type feature. <br>
Is there anyone familiar with the Mahindra 2015 that knows how they accommodate for float?<br>
Thanks

I think you're talking apples and onions here. The B21 is a heavy duty commercial TLB machine, and as I understand, the FEL is not removable. I have a BX22, and its perfect for me. So far, I've used it to dig drain line trenches, plant trees, remove small trees (4" in diameter) and bushes, remove sidewalks, shovel snow, and of course, mow grass. It has performed all of these tasks to my satisfaction and to switch from TLB to 1st class mowing machine only takes about 20 minutes (with a little practice). I can highly recommend the BX22.

It's hard to say. The PDF I downloaded has pictures of four buckets and the smallest has three teeth, but it doesn't indicate which size buckets they are. Since six sizes are available I'm not sure which four sizes are pictured.
