Life without a tractor
« on: August 21, 2019, 07:32:34 PM »
I never knew how bad I needed one until I got one. 2 man jobs instantly become 1 man jobs. How did I ever live without this thing!?

Once you own heavy equipment  it becomes very hard when you  loose it. I own Forklifts and had access to a small tractor until my father sold it. I miss that bucket and brush hog a lot... And you are correct that they do a hell of a lot of work when alone. Just be careful not to tip that baby over, Ive done that with a forklift a couple of times playing too hard.
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

 You won't regret it.  I kicked around the idea of buying one for a year.  I looked at the green, orange, red, and blue ones. I had kind of put on the back burner cause my wife had gotten pregnant with our first baby.  Then one day I was moving around something way too heavy and hurt my back, you know the kind that you can't get your socks on and barely wipe your butt.  So we decided just to do it even though it wasn't the best time financialy.  Looking back I'm glad we did.  I use it all the time.

It's a back saver for sure.

AP, do you know the brand of those forks?  And are they the kind that you just crank on with a giant attached screw apparatus?
