    Battery weed eater

    The 20V Ryobi I got the wife a few years ago is still doing well using my 18V Makita LXT batteries with an adapter.

    110 volt welder recommendations

    I recently got a Primeweld MIG180 and so far it's quite nice. 120V and 240V capable and also includes a spool gun for aluminum. Pretty decent capacity on 120V and of course more on 240V.

    Wireless Trailer Rear View Camera

    I've also started seeing semis with cameras on the back of the trailer. Considering what a semi costs and the need for dash cams anyway, it's a low cost welcome addition.

    Wireless Trailer Rear View Camera

    What I really need is a portable battery powered magnetic mount camera that can be switched to "normal" orientation readily. Primary need is when using clamp on forks on the backhoe where you have pretty much zero visibility of the forks. Something I can mag onto the loader bucker with a good...

    Barnyard Area Light

    Yes, consider yourself lucky. Something like 80% of the world's population lives with light polution and has never seen the night sky.

    These little kids are gonna be a problem

    Goat is very tasty, largely interchangable with lamb. People who don't like it usually have feed fed some poorly prepared goat, often from an intact male and somtimes one that was injured and thus became food, all of which will make for a pretty poor result. Meat from a female or castrated...

    Barnyard Area Light

    I said "dusk-to-dawn light pollution generator", the insecurity lights that those from the city have to have when they move to the country as they have never seen actual night, always city street lights and other city light pollution. They are terrified of all nocturnal creatures and think they...

    Barnyard Area Light

    Please consider using a manual switch or a decent timer, not a dusk-to-dawn light pollution generator as used by the city folks who move to the country and promptly destroy it with their insecurity lights because they have never seen natural nightime and are afraid of everything. For my...

    Cylinder pin removal thoughts...

    Yea, I'll give the air hammer a try before and perhaps after the bolt welding. It appears the weather may cooperate enough to get back at it today.

    Cylinder pin removal thoughts...

    Seems a lot more material and effort than welding a bolt on the end of the pin and using a stud pulling ram from KO punch set.

    Cylinder pin removal thoughts...

    That is the 5T rated pull back ram. I doubt the wrench could withstand anywhere near the limit but it did take a good amount of pull to get that end cap loose. The current problem cylinder is on the backhoe and is too large dia for that wrench to fit. The stuck cross pins are also a lot longer...

    Cylinder pin removal thoughts...

    I don't think so, it's moving with great difficulty, i.e. rust buildup, the cylinder isn't showing any sign of being pushed to one side it shifts back and forth by hand easily.

    Cylinder pin removal thoughts...

    The modified wrench which works on cylinders with end caps up to about 4 1/4" dia. Perhaps I just need to mod a larger wrench to fit the current 4 7/8" cap and the boom cyl cap which is about 5 1/2" dia. ETA: It appears a 48" wrench will only get me to 5" capacity which would do this cylinder...

    Cylinder pin removal thoughts...

    I considered that but concluded that welding a bolt on the end of the pin would be least impactful, would not damage the pin and was easily ground off. When the pins are out I can slap them in the lathe and polish them clean with so abrasive cloth. Have to imagine replacement pins are a bit pricey.

    Cylinder pin removal thoughts...

    I have one, way too small. We're talking pins roughly 1 3/4" dia x 13.5"+ long that have roughly 4"+ at each end somewhat rusted in place. Big stuff.

    Cylinder pin removal thoughts...

    Already removed, one of them uses a cross bolt, the other snap rings. Just parts that do not rotate and get rusted in place over the years so need some force to get out.

    Cylinder pin removal thoughts...

    I'm no stranger to opening hydraulic cylinders, this one is just too big for my tooling. 36" Harbor Freight pipe wrench ($25) and about 45min in the shop making a replacement for the pin-in jaw with a radius to match the cylinders it will fit and a 3/8 pin for the spanner slots. The moving jaw I...
