Adding workshop to back of garage. Moving dirt from digging footers for stem walls. Also putting carport(corral) for horse parking. Retiring from Fire dept. in about 6 months and need some space to "create". Working around daily thunderstorms and It's only 1000 degrees with 400% humidity here so going slow!

Looks similar to a project I did recently with mine. I used the dozer to push down big piles, then used a grader blade to level it out, towing a 400 lb poly roller. Worked pretty good, but the grader didn't float all that well on my GT-14. Does that tractor use a hydraulic lift or a chain?

 

BTW, I completely dig that front in ball hitch. That is going on one of my tractors before the winter for sure.

Has hydraulic lift, saves that left shoulder and arm. The front hitch was on horse when i got it. PO was pilot and had small plane he moved around with tractor. Sarge would probably not like weld job and I thought about fixing it myself but it has held and not high on my priorities, maybe when I retire.

Good luck with your retirement as well! 

 I've worked around a lot of firemen over the years doing stage work here in Nashville. You all are the greatest! Good luck also with your Hurd !

And you need a reason to get out of bed in the morning. Besides it feels right and good.
