Just bought 80 acres that is partially reclaimed strip property. About half is now pasture with a pit and the rest is timber that still has some of the spill banks. We are building a home on it next spring. The entire 80 acres is barb wire fenced and from my walking the perimeter it appears the fence on the perimeter of the wooded section can't be accessed very easily with any type of machine to be able to work on the fence. I already have someone that will cut and bail the pasture grass and bought a 55 HP tractor to do what little brush hogging that is left. My question is what would be the best equipment for making the perimeter of the fence accessible to keep up with the fence? I doubt my tractor will serve the purpose even with the front-end loader and I have contemplated a small dozer or a tracked skid steer. This property has nothing on it, yet so we will be putting in everything from a driveway to electric, water and a septic system. We have found a local guy that does all this and has the equipment and I've also thought to just see if he will clear a path along my property perimeter so I can access it with my SxS to do fence work and access it easier to deer hunt. What are you folks thinking on this issue? I have thought that maybe I should have bought a tracked skid steer and do everything with that in lieu of the 55 HP tractor with the front-end loader. I hate to take this tractor into the woods as I got a pretty good deal on it via an auction as it is a 2018 Kioti with 30 ACTUAL hours on it as the guy bought it from the local dealer with a tiller just to do his garden.

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
