Man it is a wonder it stayed together that well, you must have been running it right instead of like me a 640 at 1600 means 2000 to me and when something goes wrong it really does blow up.

I need to get rid of both bush hogs I have, I have kept them up but they are about 30 years old, have been built a bunch of times and the skids have been worn off, new metal and 1 inch thick skids put on them 3 or four times each.

Either one of them throws a blade it will go through a car.

I was at the same place in '21. Both bush hogs were old, one almost 50yrs. I bought a new king kutter that fall. They are made just up the road.

A feature i really like is the arch top. It's arched back to front and side to side about 1.5 inches. Debris slid off, rain doesn't stand on it so i don't have to find a spot under a shed. The top is the first thing to rust out on most bush hogs from water standing on it. Shed space is always at a premium here so that's a big plus!!

The 3 point hitch is a floating system, has a few extra pivot points. Allows it to follow the contour of the land a little. It can dip and get weeds in a small gully or low spot in a field.

I brought it home and cut 40 acres over the next month. It got a work out (i did too 🤕). It still cuts like a dream, used it last week in fact. It's 5', lift, great for cleaning around barns, sheds, fence lines.

It's a little dusty now, got some paint knocked off... still glad i got it.

Just came in from working in my small shop.
When I work I usually have a a video or DVD playing in the background to distract one channel of my active brain....Now they call it ADD or whatever but I have always been this way.
Anyway after watching Intersteller I found a VHS of the first "Red Dawn" . The one where a very young patrick swasey leads a rebel band against invading russians/cubans/etc.
I have watched this show several times in the past but this time I happened to catch the part where they talked about how the invasion happened.....The special forces came in on comercial flights and the ground troops came across our southern border. A few strategic nukes here and there but to keep from harming the resources the fighting was mostly conventional.
Does this mimic what could be happening right now...
 
My turn to turn out the lights.

Goodnight all, Dream a little dream of the best thing in your life and sleep with a smile on your face!!!

I will dream of my great granddaughter holding me tight as she slept in my arms in the recliner today.

AH GOD how could YOU be so good to me!!!!

BIG LOVE!!!!!!
