Hope the day is treating all well -- and thanks to any and all who are serving, have served, or have family in either of those categories.

I had an expensive spring and need some cash to cover the bills since OT was cancelled, so I'm putting a few pistols up on the block. If you're a Kansas resident with no legal impediment to you owning a firearm, I can do a face to face sale -- sales to anyone else will have to go through an...

recently it's become more difficult to shift into reverse without the shuttle either popping back out or grinding the gears, neither of which I like. Is there a linkage adjustment or something that needs cleaned/lubed? Any suggestions or advice will be taken gladly!

<rant on> I've only had this thing a year & change, it's been used less than 25 hours. The nut holding one of the blades on loosens 1 1/2-2 turns after 2-3 hours of running, then it starts banging against the stump jumper. (and the hole cut in the top of the deck to get to this nut with a socket...

snow started Thursday afternoon. ended for the most part by Saturday morning. spent a couple hours each Thurs-Sat clearing the drive & parking. Spent most of yesterday digging other folks out. other than the 180 spin coming out of one drive yesterday (on a hill, of course) it was pretty...

snow day today - governor called off all non-essential state employees in and around Topeka, so no commute today. :D that means I get to use the tractor to dig out the driveway, build a sled hill, etc... and justify my heavy oilskin coat!

I just tried to get into FF - twice - and got a 404 error both times. server having issues, or is it just me?

was checking out threads on FF and it froze up - is the issue with my connection, or the server?

finally have something to show on my summer project. between flattening the building pad and all the storms for the 3 weeks following, what was my high corner now needs 15" of fill to level it back out. :(

I was offered a free Troy Bilt riding mower tonight. no idea what size, model, or age - all i know is they think it has a bad axle. anyone know how hard it is to find one of these so I could maybe get it running? any suggestions for where i should start looking would be welcome, as well. thanks.

Wife decided it was time for a new puppy - and found an aussie shepherd at a shelter not more than 70 miles form home. (yes, this is an improvement - she was looking at one 350 miles away) Here's a link to the shelter ad on petfinder. Looking for help coming up with a name...

the conversations about generators and tornadoes lately had me thinking, then I got an email from Lee Valley tools promoting their emergency light and I thought some of you might be interested in something less than pretty, but very functional and reasonable priced. (I'm ordering 2 - one for the...

figure I should start getting an idea of what's available now instead of waiting until spring when they're all in use. (besides, could use them before burning season)

You can't really see the light dusting of snow we got yesterday, but the ice looks much better now that the clouds are gone! Second picture is our "little malabrute" Denali - never name a dog after a mountain, he might decide to grow into the name!

for any tool addicts out there - the Springfield, Mo Grizzly Industrial Tools Scratch & Dent Tent sale is Saturday, June 7. Anyone else planning on going?

a certain member of the forum keeps getting s-bucks cards mailed to him out of the blue. this same member is often heard lamenting about his diet of gruel due to a lack of snow deep enough for him to be willing to get his toys dirty. (as opposed to the evil competition who will charge people to...

Hi, Was looking at the Markham last night site to see about a toothbar and saw the link to this one. Checked it out, recognised some names, and signed up. I'm in NE Ks, building a house on 35 acres, 1 wife, 2 dogs, no kids. land is slightly rolling (on the edge of the flint hills), plenty of...
