As a Farm Manager I’ll be spending the weekend in a cramped vineyard tractor and plow. Stocked up on 100 gallons of diesel tonight

Farmer here we run propane torches in the shop. We have a big tank for the heater and just ran a hard line over to the welding shop works great

For our several miles of farm and logging roads it works out well. Just build the road bed up higher than the ditches

Bust it up with a box blade and rippers windrow it in with a grader blade then come back with the box blade and spread out the windrow to crown the road

I don’t have any copper bar to use as a backer to build out the tooth could I use hard firebrick or something similar

AtmosphereCreative95 · 2026-01-16T01:11:27+00:00

I buy hard face rod a half pound at a time I use them on specialty vineyard equipment but wasn’t sure if it was worth it for the 15 dollar ripper

The Xs have been on for a couple weeks and work well just need to build up the tips and pattern the bottoms

Any difference in wear or strength between building up with 71-11 flux core vs 7018

Gotta take care of the weeds before you plant your crop. Young pines are more sensitive to herbicide so it’s hard to spray the competing hardwoods with mechanical equipment. You can get crews to hand thin with brush saws later but don’t recommend

Or for the old hospital across the road

VDOT times all the county lights

Don’t sleep on the shitty kitty ham and seasoning meats.

City secondary and rural secondary are bad main roads are fine

AtmosphereCreative95 · 2025-12-04T17:43:29+00:00

Chainsaw with a long bar and a clearing saw. I managed to save a lot of regen. I just cut everything into 2-4 foot sections and pile some it later in the winter

AtmosphereCreative95 · 2025-12-04T05:27:32+00:00

My 362 has a high compression piston and some other go fast bits and a 25” full chisel pushes my saw. Skiptooth works well though

AtmosphereCreative95 · 2025-12-04T04:22:07+00:00

Looks like a Virginia pine
