So our farm used to have a circle driveway, my mom wanted it put back in so I started on it last fall but didnt get it finished, so I worked on it a bit today. Personally I think its maybe starting to shape up, you might disagree with me and that's fine. I'd love to hear some feedback on it.
Then I decided to move some manure, and that's when things went a little bit wrong.
No I'm not stuck, but I heard a weird noise. So I shut of the skidsteer and looked around. Turns out the flywheel had ripped a hole in the battery. Dirt and manure had worked it's way in to where the battery sets while I was running the skidsteer, and pushed the battery against the flywheel. That's actually the 2nd time I've ripped a hole in a battery on that skidsteer. Unfortunately those batteries aren't super cheap, but I guess they aren't outrageously expensive.

So I need a new battery a new battery cable, a new solenoid and a new starter button (the starter button broke months before this accident) Oh well that's farming for ya I guess, coulda been worse.

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'.
