    Mobile water trough - top filling

    I guess we’ll see. I wouldn’t say I’ve had problem with troughs getting broken, just getting knocked a bit and then overflowing. (I’m often on slopes too)

    Mobile water trough - top filling

    https://paxtonagri.com/product/at20-drinking-bowl/ Going to try one of these this season, probably just need to add some sort of clamp for the pipe so that it can’t twist the ballcock round

    Too many punctures

    I think so, i‘ll need to measure a mini ss to see for sure. Most of the tires have been changed to tubes, but quite often its tiny stones getting in and wearing a hole.

    Too many punctures

    My tub mixer is a twin axle on 400/60 15.5 tyres, does about 5 miles a day on rock roads and the rate of punctures is getting out of hand. Doesnt seem to matter if its a New or older tire, tubed or tubeless i seem to get a puncture every couple of weeks. Any suggestions to improve their life...

    Claas 697 handbrake

    Storing nuts and bolts

    I’ve got lin bins but I don’t really like them, mostly as I don’t have enough but also they’re not that easy to see or get into, handy if you’re using a lot on a job and just take the whole bin with you though. I’m planning on getting a cheap roll cab with some drawer dividers and loading it up...

    Water trough for rotational grazing
