Yeah, it's kinda funny out there right now, I have to move my grinder around to use the light when I'm filing a chain. I need to get a nice light for that, I've seen some that would be perfect, unfortunately they weren't cheap. I could mount one of the led lights just above the bench instead of only having the 2 I have in the middle, but as I said, I need to do what I can not to deviate from the order I need to work on it. But it sure would be easy to get distracted!
I want the swivel so I can hold projects one way, and then turn it 90 to sharpen chains the other way. Then again, having my other vise mounted the opposite way may work just fine. I know as I work out there I'll find my own way of doing things with what I have.imo, in ur case optional.
i rarely used the swivel on mine. but then they were more for fixed set up than just any old job a vise mite do. no need to spend the $$ on a Wilton machinist vise to hold some square tubing to hacksaw...
No, you hadn't told me that before. I know Antioch well. It was just about 5 miles North of us straight up route 83. We were in Round Lake Beach.
I know that route well. Grandma lived right behind where the Walgreens is now, across the way from the lake there(Antioch lake). You can tell the house because it has a large burr oak in the back yard you can see when driving past the lake.
There was a big Kioti tractor up in Maine for sale last year that was broke in half. Updated, I found the tractor. It is a 2019. Owner claimed it only had 800 hours on it. The two year structural warranty had expired. He wanted $32k for it.I know, if anyone was gonna break one I'd think I would have, sad seeing that one broke, wonder what happened. You've seen some of what I've done with mine, I feel as though I'm not being brutally abusive, but I've sure put it thru its paces

It had some water in it this weekend lol.
That was a two yr project, I needed something to do when I didn't have any cash for the barn, I really had no intentions of finishing it this yr. I need to rent a tracked skid to finish digging it, then get the clay, then rent a tracked skid again to spread the clay. We had a big bonfire/party here this last weekend and a friend of ours was here I wanted to look at it, he has his own excavating company and does a lot of work at lake properties. He sends me pictures of him digging sand out of his pond, he's taking out a couple hundred yards at a time, his pond is a bit bigger than mine.
Can i ask how long it might have taken to split that, not including the stacking?
That's a bummer, looked like a nice unit.
never seen such before... until past couple weeks. here on AS. that is the 2nd one.
a bargain
if it all foots n ticks? a new K-RX 7320 will push a bit over $50K. mid 50s? bellhousing? trans case? bent steel internals?
better than a frame, block or trans combo...
I said bummer, not bargain lol.a bargain
not sure what is broke, but seems like a lot! frame? engine back
maybe not a bargain...
I have a new cable in the basement, maybe once the barn is staled up it will be a project I'm more inclined to do, maybe notbetter than a frame, block or trans combo...
my tac drive broke on one of mine. (lack of oil down the sheath) new: $200 $175 then. i fixed it for $12.00. still works perfectly....
gets annual few drops oil now!

Damn, that's my exact model tractor. Three years older, but same machine. Guess I'd better not abuse it too hard LOL!!!
Abuse may be a relative thing. Don't let your relatives use it.Damn, that's my exact model tractor. Three years older, but same machine. Guess I'd better not abuse it too hard LOL!!!
Sometimes "stuff" just happens. We've all been there, done that. And most of us have done it many times! LOL. No injuries and no damaged equipment, so I'd consider that a "W". Hope you get it all bucked up after the rain ceases.
Hmmm.
