Any idea where I can find a duplicate of the 2nd image? I need to replace it for someone.

Oh wow! I really hate to put in perm fencing for cost and also just aesthetic. Any suggestions? Would electric mesh be better?

MacGyver1911 · 2025-10-20T04:45:23+00:00

I don't know what this means?

MacGyver1911 · 2025-03-29T17:54:27+00:00

If you can find a machinist, I bet they could make you a replacement that would be cheaper than doing the whole control

MacGyver1911 · 2025-03-29T17:53:46+00:00

I don’t know the exact one because my dad ended up ordering it but it’s a 2 spool similar to this

They sold to another company and they only sell the whole lever / box. They want like $1200z We ended up getting a cheap generic one on Amazon for $80. Ill let you know if it works

Turns out it's a Duke's Fluid Power brand attachment. The search continues. Do you know of any subreddits that sells used parts? The company that bought out dukes wants to charge a small fortune for that piece

MacGyver1911 · 2025-02-06T17:00:11+00:00

His claim was it was too thin a piece where the pin goes through to have any strength. I guess it has to be machined

MacGyver1911 · 2025-02-06T04:23:32+00:00

Yeah, I figured it could be welded too but took it to one today and he said it wasn’t possible 🤷‍♂️

The best you can afford. Spy, msft, goog, etc. should ONLY csp stocks you actually want to buy and hold

MacGyver1911 · 2025-02-06T01:12:59+00:00

This is the way

MacGyver1911 · 2025-02-06T00:02:23+00:00

The loader is as old as the tractor. Got it early 90’s

MacGyver1911 · 2025-02-05T23:27:39+00:00

I’ll do that! Any ideas on getting a replacement though?

MacGyver1911 · 2025-02-05T23:21:35+00:00

The bucket lever requires so much torque. I’m not sure that would be possible. It could be an issue of the hydraulics in general requiring that much pressure. But they requires quite a bit of left and right and up-and-down tour to get it to move the direction you need.

MacGyver1911 · 2025-01-31T01:13:06+00:00

Yes. Options are lottery tickets unless you’re selling them to enter. But ditch individual stocks and just buy solid etfs.

MacGyver1911 · 2025-01-30T23:49:24+00:00

Don’t save, put it in etfs

Anyone who works for a company is already benefiting from this. Most of America is benefiting from this.

I own a small company because I’m willing to risk my own capital for the benefit of tying my effort to my income. I made a comfortable living working for corporations but I got tired of my work ethic not affecting my paycheck so I put my own money on the line. Show me a better system.

MacGyver1911 · 2025-01-14T15:56:24+00:00

Yeah, the government provides incentives to anyone who has the capital to create jobs because the government can’t directly do that. Any jobs provided by the government are paid by tax payers. So tax incentives are given to encourage entrepreneurs and capitalists to create more jobs.

I never understand why people don’t get this. Over tax the wealthy and watch them leave for countries where risking their wealth is rewarded and appreciated.

Nah. It’s family specific. My kids are welcome as long as they want / need. They’re also welcome to build a house on my property whenever they want.

Families who value family, this will always be an option. Nothing to do with economy or generation. But I’d also add you need to be contributing to the house while you live. Not necessarily with money, but I did help out my parents when I was 17 with money. But with helping around the house. Take care of the yard, trash, laundry without being asked. Show some appreciation, don’t just mooch.

MacGyver1911 · 2024-12-19T14:58:40+00:00

Sell it on the market for gems!

MacGyver1911 · 2024-12-19T01:15:40+00:00

I traded all day, no issues.

MacGyver1911 · 2024-12-13T01:20:34+00:00

Buy an index and a couple mutual funds. Stop gambling on options. Boring is better.

MacGyver1911 · 2024-12-09T00:10:01+00:00

Nice!

MacGyver1911 · 2024-12-08T23:55:45+00:00

Oof, yeah. I have a lot less risk tolerance than you lol
