    I need to do the same thing around the farm to. Looks good. A mini x is a handy piece of equipment.

      I still have more ditches to do as well. I am very glad the mini is around. Thank you Monty 🙂

    Mini Ex is extremely handy! You just need to bring the skid steer along for the grading and material removal. Drainage is very important for good farming!

      It is very handy!! There is actually a video coming up with the skidsteer moving all that dirt. Hopefully things will dry out now. Thanks 🙂

    Handy little machine!!
    Seems YT will let me watch and comment, but won't let me like it 🤔 so I must put the 👍 here...

      Definitely is!! It's so convenient to have it around and not have to rent one every time I need to do a project. Thanks for the like, even if you had to leave it in the comments 😁

    Man yeah Mr Chris!! You are getting after it!! That sure made a difference!! Those blades are handy on the mini's for sure!! Does yours tilt 4 ways? Our small one does, the 057 and my 080 just tilt side to side. That should help with the water for sure!! Those smooth edge buckets are the cats meow!! I keep it on the machine, and just carry the 18" with me just in case. The 36" tooth never leaves the trailer now!! Look fwd to seeing how they do after your rains!! Thank you sir for bringing us along!! Look fwd to seeing what's next!! 😁😁😁👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸

      Unfortunately my blade doesn't angle. I bought this machine at the end of 2019 and the dealership only had two left- neither had the angle blade. So it was that or nothing lol I hope to get a hydraulic tilt bucket soon, but the price had gone up this spring so now I have to save up more money.... Thank you sir!! 🙂

      I do have a bolt on edge for my 16" bucket, but really want to get a hydraulic tilt grading bucket. I appreciate you watching 🙂

    Planting Hay? That is a once in a lifetime ordeal with us.... because the grass that grows best and turns the most money... once established you can control it but never completely eradicate it.. It will always be somewhere on the farm, by a building, in a fence row where ever it is...... Waiting

      Wow, that sounds frustrating! We are able to plow it under and rotate crops. Thanks for stopping by 🙂

      I can understand the frustration of someone trying not to control but eradicate it..... But our business is supplying 8 stores with freshly converted small squares by trailer loads, ours is to maintain the source........We have one 90 acre field that been growing the Hybrid Grass for over 30 years since it was planted......We punch it every year, soil test, fertilize, spray approved herbicides, and try to harvest every 6 weeks, weather permitting with an application of nitrogen after each cut.....Last year we had 3 10 day windows occur at each 6 week cut...... Taking a peak at one of my rinky-dink videos may add some insight... Thanks for viewing......
