Original clod buster can bring pretty good money. The stuff available today is crazy cool. This raminator weighs 80 lbs and is powered by a pocket bike motor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They loved it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 I haven’t had my nitro trucks out in a few years. Now is the best time cause everything is shut down and nothing to do. They are a lot of fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 All I've been doin' is yard work. Pickin' up branches and twigs. York rakin' over 800' feet of gravel/dirt driveways from winter plowing. Finish rakin' a lot of it, but have more to do. Will finish with my helper, next week maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s awesome. When my daughter was younger, we had about a dozen taps in about 7-8 nice maples on our property. It was a fun thing to do with her every spring. Like anything with my obsessive compulsive ass, it became a science I wanted to learn. The last couple years I produced some really good stuff. It’s a lot of work but there is no replacing quality maple syrup once you’ve had it...that’s for sure!

A half inch drill, a couple taps with a hammer and the bucket hangs right on then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of that in my future as well. Maybe start this afternoon since it is supposed to rain some this weekend. Gonna take hours just to pick up sticks. Driveway is kind of a mess right now but I don't have the equipment to fix it (some day). Will have to pick up the garbage laying around too, that stuff drives me nuts.

Zambroski Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 My OCD kicked in about 4 am and I decided to get the wrap off my sled. Shitty job for sure getting the adhesive off. Goo Gone, acetone and an alcohol treatment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never broke the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just had to drill a hole through the bottom to mount it on the lift. yeah...I know on the impact too. Mine won’t run up without that kind of HP. A simple drill to lift it? Yeah....right. I just bought a longer handle to make lifting it a lot easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
