Wasn’t trying to build a closet. Just needed this wall to mount the future upgraded boiler to the wall and all the components.. on the inside and also it closes off the mechanical room for noise. Thanks @stusdiy0702

Yes it survived.. but it killed it dead at full Throttle. So I thought I tore something up. Definitely not something I want to do again. Thanks for checking up on the soon to be ol girl

Because the steel beam that the wall is under is the same with as 2x6 so I made sense to use that material. Also when I got to install the wall sheeting it comes nice and flush on both sides to the beam. You won’t see the beam after it’s sheeted and I don’t have to fur anything out this way. Hopefully this makes sense. Thanks for the comment bud

Was kinda hard packed under the loose stuff but just having fun

@@studiy0702 I was actually impressed with how easy it moved that pile, I know that dirt is pretty heavy! Nice job!

@1966roadking thank you. Yes next time I do something small like that I will be taking the deck off

I like tapcons I feel they hold the plate better for interior concrete. And also the beam shouldn’t move it’s locked in hard at both ends. I sheeted the other side of the wall with OSB so it’s solid. Im going to mount all my boiler piping to it so I don’t want it to move at all.

The beam was there originally but I wanted to put a wall there to make a mechanical room to help make it quiet in the basement if your chilling down there!

I got 70k on mine

How do you like your pickup so far?

I do will do that and I usually add seafoam just to help clean the card out before I winterize it as well but have to make it through the fall mulch season first then I will put it to bed

Yes I have mowed there meny times but this time got a little to far over and it caught. So totally my fault and next time I will be spraying and not doing that again. Quick lesson to learn that’s for sure. Thankfully nothing damaged

@@studiy0702 if you want goes for sure go with brushcutter near the pipe in the ditch

@LeonardoMigot yes will have to spray or weed eat around it in the future

@@studiy0702 trust me is better with brushcutter

Yes would have been nice to have side discharge 100% agree. Thanks for the comment plz subscribe to support the channel. Thanks again Stu

@@studiy0702 yeah I like your mower but for as nice as it is it baffles me why it doesn't have a discharge option. I use my discharge over the mulch option, and I never use my bag.

@SteelRhinoXpress i like to bag mow the front yard to make it look nicer in my opinion. And then for around the back and planter areas I just switch it to the mulching. Then for around my shop area and big areas I ride with the John Deere way faster haha.

@@studiy0702 Actually the Honda lawn mower is even better than side discharge because by leaving the selector to bag instead of mulch, it will discharge clippings from the back. that is what I use always: No bagging the cut grass, and no mulching... I deduce that mulching will stress the engine (especially wet grass), burn more gas, and will probably shorten the life of the mower. LOL

@go4lowcost652 I guess never ran the mower in bag position without the bag attached. But I like the look of the yard when it’s all bagged up and doesn’t take to much extra time. I obviously only mulch it when it’s dry. But wet grass is hard on push mowers that’s for sure

That’s not good at all. Well if I didn’t bolt it the blade springs would just keep flexing so it’s what I had to do to make it work.. thanks for the comment

No kids. Yet. Dad will be in in time lapse when I get the video’s edited. Wife is a nurse and works a lot so days off are not the same but she helps when she can but usually she holds the camera for me but she’s in a few videos

Yes bought it new in 2017. Work hard and have toys. But toys that I can do projects with and have nice things in life

Yes I have worked in the power house field sense 19 so that’s truly all I know and everything else I’ve learned through hard Knox’s or my dad teaching me…

Did you keep watching the videos?

@@studiy0702 Yes, I started with your oldest and am working my way forward leaving a thumbs up and positive comments on each one I watch. Like I said - I am your new cheerleader. I have said a lot of real good things about you and I really meant it. You should get a notification when someone comments on your videos - do you have that turned off?

@artszabo1015 no I see them. Just didn’t see anymore new comments from you. Was looking forward to reading positivity in the comments today

Just so happens my dad has a 1969 Mach 1 full restored in his garage

@@studiy0702 What a coincidence!! My brother bought one brand new, it was Gulfstream aqua with a 351 automatic and it cost $3200.00.

@artszabo1015 that’s cheap now days compared to new ones. But you still can’t beat per emissions muscle cars. A guy could afford to work on them back then. At least from what my dad says

My generation of people forget how to work these days.. pretty sad. “On time is Late” and “early is being on time”.

@@studiy0702 Yes Sir, you are right on the money.

Thank you Art from Ohio!!!

Yes next time when I’m doing anything blade related I’ll do that.. obviously should have don’t it from the beginning but hey got to learn some how.. lol

Thank you couldn’t of done it without you

Well have never heard of that before. I’ve always had little slings and stuff I found over the years. I appreciate your comment and for watching along..

Yes sir i agree thanks for that reminder. I usually ware boots every day but in this case was a quick thought for the video and I shot it.. but definitely could have had something bad happen.. thanks again

Yes so my dad use to have the Deere E120 and I was a nice mower the only issue I remember was the deck was rusting out… are you looking at getting a new mower? I would agree with you and say it’s a coincidence and if you take care of your mower and he doesn’t that will lead to more issues also if he bought a lemon from the factory that could be a problem. I’m not sure truly on the E to D comparison to be honest. Just on what my dad had. We also had the GX335 and I was a great mower as well.

@@studiy0702 thank you for the reply !! So far so good with mine. I have it serviced every other year. I have a small yard so it doesn't get used a whole lot. I'm a disabled veteran and use it mainly to go to an from my car. Thanks again 🇺🇲🪖

There was only cosmetic changes between the two, mainly the hood

I think you’re right on that one..

Yes now my back is paying for it.

I’m sure it is in bulk but I needed it on Sunday and delivered and I could find any on Sunday and the color she wanted

Thank you. Coming along. Still have clean up from winter.. and make some more shop videos. I will make another video soon about cleaning the deck and blade sharpening and using the wench in real life application

Will do

Yes the 758 diesel is a beast.. yes I have seen the aftermarket loader made in Wisconsin I believe it’s called CTC. I would like to trade in the 758 maybe one day and get a loader tractor like 1025R something like that.. air ride seat must be freaking awesome

I would like to try a tiller on the 758 and see how it does!!

Thanks for watching a following along

Thee 1025r is thee most popular tractor we sold back when I worked for john deere. I wouldn't recommend trading it in for 1025r though. The reason for this for me is thee amount of maintenance points to grease. You can get a tiller for that model. The tractor you have now only has 3 points of grease. 2 I think on the mower deck and 1 in the front bottom hidden away. You already have the best tractor, but I do understand thee 1025r does have alot more features.

Yes I agree it would be nice to have a detachable loader with it as well as long as having a 3 point attachment. Because a plow for the loader is sweet back when I had my 2025. Also get everything in one shot factory made and not have to worry about aftermarket or adding options to my 758. Idk lots of thinking to do before pulling the trigger.

Yes but they’re not the standard turf tires in my opinion. There alittle more aggressive, but I don’t really need bar tires for it. Yes after is was don’t with the project definitely should have taken the deck off before starting! But HEY it’s a learning opportunity for all that have watched the video.

You’re thinking of getting a 735 to mow with? And then have your 1025R to have as loader tractor? Nice little tractor have you got all the bells and whistles?

@@studiy0702 Yes , a 735 just to mow with and use the 1025r for the loader ,tilling and backhoe work.

@00-by2jl how does the backhoe work for you? Obviously there are limitations to everything

Great for counter weight

@@studiy0702 backhoe works great . Just keep in mind your not using a mini excavator . I've dug stumps, replaced sewer lines, and stripped sod off just to name a couple of jobs

Yes it has the 3.5L eco boost. I love it. Lots of power have had no problems with it.

Yes in my shop I mounted a stick of 1”5/8unistrut to the ceiling, bought a cheap harbor freight electric winch. And some electric winch rollers off Amazon and mounted, I feel comfortable lifting 2-3 hundred pounds. Plugged it right into the garage door opener outlet. One the deck is off the mower you can wrap a strap around the front mower wheels and pick up the front to support it vertically. I don’t lift the deck off the ground but it’s safe enough to hold it up and change blades or clean deck, I have a a video of cleaning the deck using the winch so you can go check that out if you would like for more details.

Let me know if you want me to make a video of it.. and I will

@@studiy0702 Thanks for the quick reply. I did not find the video of you cleaning the deck using the winch. I would love to see that!

@@studiy0702 Would love to see the video!

Ok give me a few days to create it

It’s going to be a definitely nice purchase when you get it home and run it for the first time.. that new tractor smell and feeling is freaking awesome.. send me a photo or 2 of your new ride. My email is on my channel main page. Thank you

Thanks 👍

Well after I got into it! That was my thought too.

Yes if you go back in my previous videos I had a tree fall down there and the junk dirt the neighbor hauled in was mostly clay and I was hard to level beside leaving a mind so to speak.. yes you are correct it was difficult. Thanks for the comment.

The rubber belt was just the junk dirt my neighbor delivered from his farm and had rubber belt it the pile.. yes a 1025r with loader and mower deck would be great for landscaping and pushing snow. But at the time all I need was the mower. Because I still had the 2520. Then sold that. Now definitely wanting a small loader tractor back again.. definitely an expensive toy. The only big plus for me is transporting material from one spot to another, a plow is hard to do that without getting it all over the yard. Just have to get the wife to sign off. Maybe one day you will see a new loader tractor on the channel. Fingers crossed. Thanks for leaving a comment. It’s nice to hear other guys have done the same type of things. Appreciate it.

Back when I bought the x758 I also had a 2520deere with 200cx loader. Ie definitely worked great for moving a leveling dirt. But hey if it works it works. Better then using a shovel and rake haha.. thanks for the comment. Consider subscribing if you want. Much appreciated

What are you talking about? The x758 did great 🤦‍♂️

@@gregg360 well you can abuse your equipment if you want but using a snow plow as a bulldozer is a great way to bend frames, plows, and generally mess up your machine. It isnt my money that was spent on the machine so for all I care he can abuse it however he wants. Just dont think it is a great idea if you want the machine to last.

@@cantbuyrespect what abuse did you see in that video? Jesus Christ he didn’t bend no frame moving that dirt/clay around

I appreciate you looking out for the machine I felt like I was being easy on it. I didn’t let the wheels free spin and just hammer into the pile. There’s a risk with using anything small like that to push dirt or debris so again thanks for looking out.

I guess worst case scenario I would just turn the mower off.. yes I know it’s hard on the tractor doing that but quick is quick ya know. Thank you during the video the weight of them and true name I forgot haha. Sometimes it’s hard to talk to the camera it’s like talking to yourself at times.. thanks for your comment I’ll remember that if I mention them again.

Yes if you keep the deck clean and the blades sharp the machine has lots of power to mow like a boss..

Thank you for your comment I really appreciate it.

Thank you!!! I have never thought of that. That would be an expensive lesson learned.

Sorry man! I actually got rid of it all after I took it apart. So garbage man has it now. I post the video yesterday and took down the table a few days before. I wish I would of known.
