I am getting ready to build the new pool house but I don't trust the original water line because it is thin-walled PVC and not buried deep enough in some places.

Building a Tractor Shed for My Kubota
Soon after I got my Kubota L3901 (A.K.A. "Big Orange"), I knew I wanted a place to keep him out of the weather. My best option at the time was to build a lean-to shed off the back of my carport. The challenge for building this shed was getting the headroom and space I needed within space available.

Even though my front-end loader has a quick attach coupler, I wasn’t sure I wanted to spend the big bucks on a set of quick attach pallet forks so I opted to start with some very affordable clamp-on forks from Titan, purchased through Amazon. I quickly discovered just how useful pallet forks can be and bought a set of quick attach forks about six months later.
Adding Chain Boxes to My Kubota Tractor
If you're a tractor owner, then you probably know how handy it is to have a logging chain with you for both the expected and unexpected towing tasks.

A Ballast Box for My Kubota

Titan Clamp On Trailer Receiver – A Review
The Titan Clamp on Trailer Receiver was one of the first attachments I bought besides the ones I got with my tractor. It has proved well worth the $69 I paid for it on Amazon and has become my favorite tool for moving trailers around.
A 3-Point Leveling Box for My Kubota L3901
The standard adjustable side link on most tractor 3 point systems certainly work for adjusting the angle of your three point system, but they are a lot of work and hassle to adjust. That's why leveling boxes are so handy to add to your tractor.
Greenworks 40V Cordless Chainsaw Review
I have had this chainsaw for about 6 months now and have cut a lot of wood with in that time, so I think I can give it fair evaluation. I have to admit I was very skeptical of battery powered chainsaws, but this thing has won me over.
A Versatile Tractor Carry All for Your Tractor
When it comes to tractor attachments, one of the most useful ones you can have is a 3 point mounted carry all. It is also one of the most affordable attachments if you buy a carry all frame and build it yourself.
