The most universally capable modern homesteading machine we know of is a commercial-grade compact diesel tractor. We like Kubota tractors, John Deere''s 20- to 48-hp 2000 class and New Holland''s Boomer line. Even the smallest models--which look like sturdily built lawn tractor mowers--are equipped with powerful diesel engines and industrial quality transmissions and running gear. They also sport a three-point rear hitch that will mount commercial farm land plows, harrows and rakes and provide attachment points for a hay or field corn cutter bar or silage chopper, a sprayer or buzz saw. These tractors include a hydraulic system that will power remote motors on the chopper''s flails, the sprayer''s pump or the saw''s blade. They''ll also mount hydraulic cylinders to pull the plow up or dig it in and hold it down and will run any number of other hydraulic attachments such as a front-end snow thrower or plow blade, a bucket loader to carry soil, gravel or building bricks, a rear-mount backhoe to dig trenches, a forklift to raise bay bales into your barn loft, an electric generator to power the house and barn if the power lines go down in a storm, or a pump to fill a pond or empty the cellar after a flood. A modern, small diesel tractor is a major investment for a ranch or truck-farming operation--but one that will expand your homesteading capabilities beyond muscle-power, and will pay off every day for a lifetime or two of strenuous use.

There''s a shovel of dirt lurking on many farms that threatens to cost thousands of dollars in equipment fun repair and downtime. And it''s hiding in a place most farmers will never look. That place is inside their diesel storage tanks where mismanagement and misunderstanding have allowed the threat to grow.Last summer, Successful Farming magazine worked with petroleum experts from Country Energy LLC, a regional fuel supplier formed by Farmland Industries and Cenex Harvest States, and employees of the Andale Farmers Co-op, Andale, Kansas, to help make farmers aware of this threat. We shared the $110 cost of sampling and cleaning diesel storage tanks on 20 farms in south central Kansas. Though stored gasoline also gets dirty, we didn''t include it because fewer engine problems result.

Mark/B-LOC: Keyless locking device supplier product information in the form of e-catalogs, downloadable CAD files, and online specifications reduce research and drafting time. Workstation-based FEA and virtual prototyping allow preliminary design iterations to be tested and improved without consuming any materials or machining.Warren/Fenner: Keyless locking devices are easily and precisely repositioned or moved. This is beneficial in applications requiring synchronization or timing. Other connections may require some disassembly to re-time the machine or parts, whereas keyless locking devices simply have to be loosened and the mounted component repositioned.Blair/Ruland: Most locking devices have standard bore sizes, but nonstandard hub requirements. Hubs are generally machined to match the locking device. Realizing this early in the design phase reduces rework and keeps the development process running smoothly.
