Stick around because I have a lot more videos of the build coming!!

@@ourberkshirebuild Wow! We´re really impressed with your work. So, would you like to collaborate with us??

Thanks! I try to film as much as possible. Keeping up with battery and memory cards is no joke while trying to build 😂

Using the fasteners that are called out in the kit plans. They are all spiral or ring shank. I am not concerned because the times I had to pull a few out for corrections, I barely could remove as they hold so well. I do agree with you on screws tho, good structural screws are great. The sip's that shell the frame have large timber screws holding them on which also tie the frame together as well!

Thanks!!

😂 this had me cracking up. Thanks for the laugh

Thank you!

Thanks! We were super excited when we found this barn kit. A horse barn style would be pretty cool too! Good luck 👍

Thanks!

Hi Ted, it wouldn't lift that log up at all to move it before cutting. I dropped it off with a dump truck from a friend's property - Dave

Thanks!

Yes, even though the L2501 has the smallest motor in its chassis group, the hp does not effect the hydraulic power of the attachment. If it is the bh77 backhoe attachment being used, it will perform the same as on the other hp model tractors in its group. The hp matters for the pto attachments and probably in some other scenarios. With the smaller trenching bucket, it digs pretty well for me. Sometimes it reaches its power limit as you can see in the video, but if you try moving a different way, it will usually pull through, or just try grabbing less material. - Dave

@@ourberkshirebuild I see ! You are right! It’s more on hydraulic fluid pressure

@@KUBBI7488 Exactly! Anytime the backhoe can't move, it's the hydraulic relief valve that is controlling the power so that nothing on the machine gets damaged. Hopefully. I love my setup. Going on 3 years now 600+ hours on the tractor

@@ourberkshirebuild wow! Mine l2501 on 88 th hour only! I really want backhoe to add ! Not sure will be powerful enough or get bigger hp tractor for backhoe

@@KUBBI7488 I guess it all depends on what you plan to do with it and the materials where you are. Sand, rock, clay, etc. Hopefully the video helped show you what it can do

I love mine too! It is a huge workhorse and perfect size to maneuver through tight obstacles - Dave

I haven't had any issues with that here. It's a really small town, and the highway super knows us too. I live on a very small gravel road and I actually help clear that small pull off that's across from me so that oncoming cars can pass easier. The plows don't clear that either. I just make sure that I don't scrape up any of the gravel from the road and that's it!

Ya probably around 8in by the time I started filming. Had about 12in at night and then from the sun and whatnot it really compacted down quickly. The tractor was staying on top pretty well too surprisingly since the front tires I have are decently skinny

Thanks my friend!

You're welcome @M TW. It's doable, but definitely depends on the situation as well. Will you have help? How much time can you commit? Can you install the utility in sections and not a straight 700-800' run? Will the sand start to cave into the trench? If so, if needed to slope trench walls will take much longer. Hopefully that will help make a decision for you! I'll be posting up the backfill video soon too! - Dave
