It’s perhaps unlikely a workshop about a bi-cropping project would have attracted nearly...
Going to change our 12' x 6' livestock trailer. Been very disillusioned with our present Ivor, build quality wise. I know they are built to a price, with as light an unladen weight as possible, but definitely looking for something a bit more robust. A few round here have Nugents as there is a...

hi.. i am planning on tidying up my bredal hopper. there is alot of surface rush starting to appear so will need to be cleaned down and painted. however, i was thinking of fixing a 2/3mm stainless steal skin to the inside to try and preserve it but im afraid that the steal will just rust...
We’re on soils that go hard and struggling to find a machine to chit them unless they are wet. We persevered with a vaderstad carrier for a few years but got rid of it in the end as it just wouldn’t penetrate hard soils. We then used a mounted disc/press machine with the idea the tractor linkage...
I am coming to the end of sorting out the hydraulics on my own 590. I have found these boards and those elsewhere, along with videos, highly informative but jeepers it has been a long slog with many false leads and blind alleys. I have the official workshop manual, parts list and operator...

Would I be best siting my metal bunded 2500 oil tank on some box section bearers to keep it off the ground...or.lay it directly into the slabs that form the base.
Thanks in advance
I'm going to be having some diagnostic software installed on the workshop laptop remotely via teamviewer.
In this day and age I don't really trust anyone, the laptop is only for the workshop so hasn't got any personal stuff on it, just to be sure I will be deleting all the cookies and any...

I re-clad several buildings on site around 14 years ago. I've noticed at the ends of some sheets the coating is peeling back exposing the steel which is starting to rust. It seems worst where it's exposed to full sun. Any recommendations for how to repair, thinking of just rubbing down and...

A little ahead of the game but we are backing harvest into a corner and thinking about how to protect shiny surfaces primarily on combine header over winter.
Bought some Hammerite waxoyl (and a hand pump operated spray bottle) which looks very thick and nasty, will this...
Evening folks,
Just wondering on a wet evening, how many people own and old combine like a 1990 machine to an early 2000 machine so like 20/30 year old machine. Do you find them reliable or just a pain as they are on the period when electrics started to come into the agriculture sector fast...
