    Me and my baby boy are watching your channel trying to get caught up and he just loves listening to you. He's only 2mo old. He is just so captivated by you and Tony from Tony's Tractor Adventure and Brock from Rock Hill farms.

    I enjoy working firewood to Ben. Your tractor plus splitter setup works great. I’m 64 yrs old and I don’t feel old but I can feel it at the end of a hard day. God has blessed me and my family. I’ve got 24 face cord stacked 12 seasoned 12 green. A man we go to church with clears property for new home construction instead of burning it which can take a long time he hauls it to me.we removed our TVs 6 years ago best thing I ever did. I like UA-cam and your videos I know it’s a lot of work to make em keep ‘em coming

    I always enjoy seeing that Massey pulling out. We use an old Massey Perkins for hauling wood out. It's a 60's machine called a Gafner Iron Mule. A small machine that is just a fantastic little Machine for hauling out.

    • @khtractors

    Good morning Ben. Surprising with the higher hitching point You need a littl weight on the front. As always You make everything look so easy!

    • @khtractors
      @khtractors  2 роки тому +1

      Yeah some front weight would help at times, but may also cause the tractor to break traction going downhill. Appreciate you watching!

    • @khtractors

    This motivated me to get out this morning and buck some more logs up - got to resharpen 2 of my saws first, though and put a skid-plate on the bottom of the BX23S. Good video, Ben. I like the boom you added to the Omni-hitch (also was paying attention to how you had your saw attached, too)👍🏻

    • @khtractors
      @khtractors  2 роки тому +3

      Yes the boom is nice, probably a little too long though. I should have made it about 6” shorter. Really like that hitch setup, thanks again! Take care Mark!

    Hey Ben, great driving skills on the Massey. You definitely know the limits of the tractor. Some front weights might help. Take care

    • @khtractors
      @khtractors  2 роки тому +1

      The only problem with front weights is causing it to slide worse downhill. Fluid in the fronts tires might be a good option. I have fluid in my Farmtrac front tires. Thanks for watching!
