The Ugly Bruce tractor was elected for towing the new Boss splitter. Great work yo are lucky to have good help...but I am too old for all that work. 5 tons of Anthracite delivered is a lot less work 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know the tonnage but we used to get a couple homemade bins filled that took up the space of one cord of wood, each. We would start the fire with wood and keep it going with anthracite. I wouldn't be opposed to using that again if we were to set ourselves up. But the firewood right now is free except for the fuel and maintenance on the machines used to process it. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bar Nuthin 2,540 #26280 Posted Tuesday at 02:26 AM (edited) Trying to sort out which tractors will pull different responsibilities/tasks, but decided the heavy weights belonged on the C-160. Thing runs sweet after putting the carb back together today! Actually, all three are running excellent! I've pretty much designated the No Name to lawn duty. Guessing the 160 will be my go-to for the MacKissic chipper. Then this winter one of these two will be sporting a 48" snowplow and the other will be on standby with the snowblower.

sqrlgtr 3,052 #26281 Posted 2 hours ago Made a trailer hitch for my 520H. I did get it painted but will have to wait on paint to dry b4 getting it mounted to tractor . I made this out of stuff I had laying around but if I would have had to buy all my metal new I would just order one from wheelhorsepartsandmore, I don’t believe you could build one much cheaper if you had to purchase the metal. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I noticed the angle iron is turned different than mine and don't know if it would have worked with the hydro filter, but it might not make any difference but that is the reason I turned mine the way I did. Like I mentioned above it would be hard to build one yourself if you had to buy all the materials and come out much cheaper than buying one already made and probably be going in the hole if you figured your time in it.

That's why I bought... instead of building. I do still need to modify one sometime though. Cinnamon Horse has a very high front end so the hitch points down. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
