Thanks Mike. Finally getting some rain to wet things down now. Of course, go figure, tropical storm. Thanks for checking it out.

The 180 degrees turns locking one wheel, now I know why my MF has two brake pedals one for each wheel, just to turn like that. Great video, good to see the MF in action. What a nice machine.

Yeap, she will turn on a dime when you hold either single petal. Especially when you’ve got something heavy on the back like disc harrow. Hope to see more of your Massey soon. Thanks for checking it out.

I liked the different angles on this one, Jeff. It won't be dry tomorrow!

[@backyardcountrylivin1514]

Hey Bubba, very true. Won’t be able to even walk in the garden tomorrow. We definitely need the rain, just hope not too much and maybe not much winds. Spenc got a new camera, Insta 360, it’s awesome.

Just curious...I know you use a tiller on the KIOTI so I'm curious why you would use the disc for the garden at the end of the year. Seems the tiller would do a better job of chopping and burying the residue than the discs. I think spring/summer seasons are getting shorter every year. Seems like just last week I was anticipating and planning on getting in the Spring garden! Now it's coming to and end... 🤠😄

Good question and you are correct. The tiller would definitely do a better job of grinding stuff up and burying a lot of it. A lot of the longer grass and weeds do tend to wrap around the tiller tines and make it a pain to untangle it. Disc is a lot easier to hook up and I hadn't run the Massey in a while, so guess it was also more convenient at the time. I know what you mean about the seasons, might have something to do with getting older and time flying by. When I did the video, as you could see it was extremely dry. Now expecting 2 to 5 " of rain from the tropical storm, go figure. Thanks for checking out the videos and commenting.
