I think a six foot blade would work very well with your tractor.

Click on link below. These are the best looking blades I have seen.

I talked the the guys at Moen Machinery (Gresham Oregon)last friday. They are all out of small Kubota's, like everyone else but they still have some Grand L's on the lot.

Murf: I am going to have to lower your pedestal one notch.

White wine with steak? Oh my God! Well at least you are not drinking beer with it. I will refer you to Docs recommendation. Red wine. Beef. It's what's for dinner.

Do you know about the "French Paradox". You should. Red wine is good for the heart.

Phillip, I presume you are flying, but I will throw this on the table.

1. Looks like my BX22 will come on the market soon. It is a T/L/B of course, but it also has wheel weights, a 54" front blade, two complete sets of wheels and tires, a set of clamp-on bucket forks and enough filters and fluids to last a couple of years.
It has 15 months left on the warranty and it has 140 hours on it at the moment. I need $16K to clear out the loan with Kubota Credit.

2. Brand new 16 foot car haulers are available here locally for $1500 +/-. That gets you dual axles, brakes all around and 5000 pound rating. A 7000 pound rating is available for a few dollars more. If you talked hard enough, I might even sell you my trailer for cheaper than that.

The web link below goes to an old discussion about using plows for shallow trenching. I don't know if any of the ideas would work very well for 18" minimum trenching or if there were many buried rocks. I also don't know how much HP and traction it takes to pull a sub-soiler 18" deep.<br>
<br>
Full of 'I don't know's today' so I'll keep going. There was another old discussion where somebody rigged something to maybe a sub-soiler so it pulled line through and laid it on the bottom of the trench as the tractor drove forward. Trouble is that I can't recall if it was irrigation or electrical line and I don't have a clue what the subject title was.<br>

Murf gave the basic solutions if the rock is a large but loose one. A bunch of rock faces in the roads around here are part of bedrock and there's no solution short of blasting or re-routing. Some rock does break pretty easy with sledges but that's not work I'm inclined to do. <br>
<br>
I was able to move a slab of concrete by getting the loader bucket under a corner and levering it up the with bucket curl enough to pitch shovels of sand under it and a ramp in front of it. Eventually I raised it enough that I could get a chain around it and drag it out. The slab was way too heavy for my loader to lift, but the bucket would lever it up. Murf described similar ways a rock can be rolled rather than dragged. Have to take a lot of care doing this type work. There's always danger of the rock slipping off the bucket or shifting. I sure wouldn't want any part of me under of near the rock and I wouldn't want to be in a hole along with the rock.<br>
<br>
If it's a big problem, building the road over the rock may be easier. Road building is a bit of an art and a permanent solution may require a level bed cut below grade either side of the rock and application of rip-rap and large gravel I mentioned.<br>

The dealer checked the voltage, I don't know what it was they just said it was high. Time will tell if the problem is fixed.

I really wanted a diesel mule, but could not justify the $9k price. Bought a ragged, but mechanically sound '86 toyota std cab short bed 4x4 for $2,000 to use for a farm/utility vehicle. My neighbor has a gas 4 x 2 mule, and I can go lots of places he can't go, while hauling considerably more with my Toyota. If you are not worried about scratches, dents, etc, it is amazing where you can go with a little Jap 4x4 pickup. For my purposes, this truck is a very cost effective soultion, however, if I hit the lottery, I'm still gonna get that Mule!

Sure do love my Mule

Nice reply as always Murf! If you are going to do anything try raising the whole deck and then mow it again in two days. I love a nice lawn, do to the cool spring and now getting some good sun the grass is growing! Every three to four days it is needing mowing. I know it is going to slow down and we will be on the weekly rotation in a week or two but it beats blacktop for looks and feel!

Harvey, it's my town, my lunch. You burned the gas! They are rebuilding all around here. It's finally gotten nice here and I hope it stays, tring to steal time to do a roof and a few doors at home and still find time to work on my ongoing education of how to catch fish. life is good!

Looks like we missed one and Digger didn't get a timely response. Good thing Loghouse noticed it. Maybe Digger still visits and we can help with his problem. I'd start out by asking if the 3ph works normally.

I used a Golden Rod filter I bought from Northern to pump out an old furnace oil tank. I thought it was 10-micron element but I could be mistaken. I think a number of different type filter elements were available though.

I used an electric fuel transfer pump borrowed from our oil dealer. This type of pump would generate some pressure at the filter that would increase flow through the filter. I don't know if hand pumps would produce similar heads.

The filter element on mine isn't very large and using one with a typical hand pump might result in pretty small flows--especially if it had a 5-micron element. It'd be good if someone here has used this type filter with a hand pump and then speculation would be irrelevant.

I bought a Speeco from the NH dealer for $139.00 it was Identical to the one at TSC for $169.00. You must adapt every implement to the speed hitch. It is best (easier)if the implement was origanally made for a speed hitch. I had to do a little fabricating on my rake. I also use it with a finish mower and a weight box. All in all I think it was worth the money.

I am not familiar with the MF line either. Many of the US manufacturers started out by importing one of the non-US brands and labeling it for the US market. As the market has grown I think some of the manufacturing has come to the US and only engines and parts are imported in some cases, but I am not completely sure of this.

You won't go wrong with New Holland, Kubota, or John Deere. A JD 790 costs around the $11K neighborhood. The price will vary depending on the options and so forth. The NH TC30 will be in the same price neighborhood.

I did not read your first post carefully about the 700 acres. I agree with plots that you may want more tractor, but your space limitation is also a concern. I went in initially looking at the TC30 and 790 tractors, but then I started liking the upgraded models. The final decision really came by selecting a frame size that was capable of doing what I wanted to accomplish.

Personally I bought a New Holland TC 45 which is a 45 HP tractor. It is made on the next frame size up from the TC30 and is only marginally wider, but has substantially more power. As far as I know 45 HP is the largest size available before you get into regular agricultural tractors.

I like John Deere and that is the main brand that we had on the farm when I was growing up, but locally I felt that I worked better with the NH dealer than the JD dealer. I ended up getting more tractor for the same money.
