Jake,all done with that now back to the house for hanging out with Sarah 😮😊❤

Check out piranha tooth bars for your Kubota. You could have done that sapling clearing job in half the time with it. Easier to level it after with too. I love mine!

[@DudeRanchDIY]

I have a piranha tooth bar for my tractor, and love it. I wasn’t aware they made them for excavators.

[@JuanSanchez-mk3ro]

Thumbs up 👍. I remember having to clear out 1/4 acre of that type of undergrowth and bamboo for my property when I acquired it eon ago, it was not fun. In the end it was well worth it.

[@DudeRanchDIY]

Bamboo is tough

[@andrewperry8389]

You should try the ditching bucket for stuff like that, it works great. I've got the same machine and that's what I do

[@DudeRanchDIY]

Didn’t know if it would do as good of a job if I encountered any bigger stumps.

[@andrewperry8389]

I probably won't use it on any big stumps I can't remember if yours tilts or not I forgot one that does tilt and that's amazing​@@DudeRanchDIY

[@DavidKloza]

Jake, vinal wrap your thumb hoses before they get damaged. It works well and won't break the bank. I picked up a roll from Amazon. I wrap all my hoses now. Comes in different diameters for different sizes of hoses.

[@DudeRanchDIY]

Got a link for it?

[@ChrisSpaulding-em3qr]

Great job jake !!!!!!!!
