Dave, glad to see your out enjoying such a beautiful day and the backdrop of those trees is just amazing! Talk about socked in the forest eh? So I'm in a rare mood after spending hours in my garage working on a new chainsaw after cutting down and trimming some trees on my property. No fan of chainsaws, for the amount of maintenance to cut some damn wood it can be defeating some days! So glad to see a new video, listening to you I am on a search for that 'ennygrease' or 'innygrease' you use because it's the best! I've always used 'Molly' grease but that innygrease sounds like the ticket? Ha, Lol, I couldn't help myself from making a joke about that. "Innygrease'(any grease) is better than no grease". Thought that was funny, but then again I have been smelling degreaser fumes for the last four hours also. Awe Ha, ha! Unrelated to this video I had a question about your draft control-box blade video ripple effect. Yes I sped up my draft to where the box dropped fairly fast and it worked wonders. Only thing is later looking I noticed small ripples I just couldn't seem to get out! Am I going too slow? Or too fast? These ripples are like 18"-24" apart and maybe 1/2"-1" deep. The tractor is rocking as it goes through first of course but even back blading with the FEL didn't get rid of them after the next box blade run? Almost got it perfect but I'm sure there must be something i'm missing. Thanks Dave.

ok so first off just to be clear its not the draft control. so if your tractor has draft control and its adjust wrong it will cause ripples. draft control is an option not all machines have. you typically use it when pulling a turning or bottom plow in garden work. when the tractor gets under a load and travel speed slows down the draft control will automatically lift the three point to allow the tractor to speed back up. this will cause the ripple effect. turn off draft control completely. the lift and lower control lever is what the valve under the seat controls. it only controls the speed of drop. that needs to be fairly fast and a slow travel speed is what you want. I hope that helps. if not you can call me, email me or respond to this thread. I will be checking it.

I bought a 5 gal pail of Kubota grease back in 2012 and I think it may outlast me. I haven't bought grease since. I don't remember what it cost, but I do remember it was much cheaper than buying cartridges.
