Nice job.
Thanks, it makes it comfy in the negative temperatures
Having a cab is the ultimate 365day use of this tool carrier :)
It really is, I was going to remove it for the summer but I think I'll keep it on for mosquito and black fly season... I'm really liking it.
That's a really nice setup. I hadn't considered how helpful that would be while running your snow blower until you mentioned it.
Thanks, It really makes a big difference, without the cab I could feel the slightest breeze on a chilly day.
Nice setup, sure beats getting pounded by the wind like I do with no cab. Happy snow blowing
Thanks, yes so nice with the cab... I have done it both ways :/
Good Show Andrew...It's really mostly about the wind and flying snow but you've done a nice job making it cozy.....Don't forget, you still need to breathe....lol...some fresh air is good....cheers.
What’s this breathing stuff they talk about lol… actually there will be plenty of ventilation, just less big gaps, and if I make it too air tight I will make a vent that can be opened and closed… if I can fab 10% of what you can do I’ll be good ;)
@@ticklemeorange8328 sweet talker...hahaha..Looks to me like you are doing just fine in the handy dept....Take care.
Good evening Sir, you have a very nice cab for sure and very well set ups 👌👍😉 Cheers 🍻
Thanks, I have done snow blowing with and without a cab... much prefer the cab :)
@@ticklemeorange8328 🥶🥶🤣🤣👌👌😉😉
We have a original tractor cab as well on our L2501 it does a great job keeping the weather off me .
Hi, took a look at your channel and subscribed... good install video and I am sooo glad I got one, we have had a few really windy days where I would have froze my butt off.
@@ticklemeorange8328 thanks
Nice cab! Good job showing how you set it up. I’m sure that makes it a lot better for dealing with that crazy cold! 🥶
Thanks, It makes a big difference, makes snow removal comfy :)
Great job Andrew. Very well explained 👍
Thanks Allen :)
Awesome Andrew 👍👍
Thanks, not a Curtis cab, but I’ll do my best impression 😆
Thanks for sharing Andrew. Some great mods there for sure. You certainly will not regret getting the cab.
Thanks, definitely don’t regret the cab. Makes cleanup more fun :)
💥 New subscriber here! Thanks for the cab tour. Looks like a beautiful piece of property you have there! 👍
*Keep on tractoring!*
Thanks Jon, and thanks for subscribing:) I have been watching your channel for quite some time now, love your home made 3 point dethatcher, something I want to try :)
Nice setup, Andrew. You've really taken full advantage of what that cab design offers. Ha, I use gaffer tape for SO many things around my shop and studio. Mine's green though because I use it with my chromakey set. I've pretty much decided that I'm not going to install a cab for my use here in WA, but I enjoyed the tour of yours. Take care!
Thank you David, yup Gaffer tape is good stuff… I had to lookup “chromakey” I had no idea what it was lol, but it looks like it would be fun to play with. As got the cab, I will take it off in the summers but the winters can be brutal here 🥶. You are on and off your tractor a lot and travel in the woods so I can see why a cab may not benefit you as much.
I like it! Lots of great tips you provided!
I like to proof of concept every thing first also and then tidy it up after too!
Thanks for posting and great video!
Thanks Derk, it’s nice to be out of the bulky winter jacket when doing my snow clearing. It’s surprisingly warmer.
Nice job staying warm, and thank you for your offer to keep a look out for an engine. I have ordered one off eBay. Should be at my house in a month or two. Of course most snow we've had in 8 years and I might not even get to play once😓
Thats great Kevin... Maybe you will get a late March 4 inch storm to get some seat time in lol.
@@ticklemeorange8328 Hopefully a 24 inch. We're getting about 12 tonight and tomorrow and I'm home. No Orange tractor coming to my wife's rescue. Me with a shovel. Awww
That cab is awesome! I was going to ask if you were able to capture any heat from the engine, but I see where you wrapped under the dash. Does it take a while to warm the engine compartment up where you are at? Seems like it would be cumbersome wrapping around the levers and pedals. Looking forward to seeing you get everything squared away. Happy to have come across your channel, and happy to subscribe! - Samuel
Hi Samuel, thanks for stopping by. Most of the newer tractors have the radiator at the back of the engine and the air is sucked out... Right now I use a Little Buddy golf cart heater that sits in the cup holder, and it heats up the cab pretty quick (2min) or so and I can move snow in a sweat shirt at -20 Celsius -4 Fahrenheit... I will be plumbing in a heater at some point, and it won't get in the way of the peddles of levers. Thank you very much for subscribing :) Edit: I just checked your channel, I want your excavator lol.
Great video. How's the golf cart heater working in your cab in the winter? Thanks!
Hi Angiehuda, the golf cart heater works great, I just wear a sweatshirt and a light spring jacket at -20 C/-4 F … I will be plumbing heat in at some point.
50 subs Andrew!!! Keep going!!!
I’m trying… I’m trying 😅. It’s actually fun making the videos and sharing ideas like your extended trailer hitch on the BX. :)
Nice set up Andrew, did you get it from B&T? Nice property also 👍🏻. Have a great weekend buddy 🙋🏼♂️🙂👍🏻
Hi Luc, I bought it directly from Original Tractor Cab, I got it within a couple of weeks of ordering. Also I didn't know B&T sold them, and thanks, the property is relaxing (a bit of work to do though). Have a great weekend :)
Just curious what is B&T? Also have a BX23S and looking to get that cab. Thanks mate 👍
@@allenr265 Hi Allen, B&T MacFarland is the Kubota dealer in Ottawa.
Love the cab especially the 12V cushion lol! Where did you get the large dome like shelter and do you like it? Is it robust? My shelter logics are falling apart after year 2.
Jack
Hi Jack, i'm really liking the cab... as for the shelter, I have a shelter logic as well. I had to replace the cover after 2yrs so I got the white one you see there. It is much more heavy duty and will last much longer, here is the link: abristempo.com/en/product/domed-double-car-shelter-7/
@Tickle me Orange Thanks Bud!
My fellow Kubota Friend. Great setup but check on Biff's Equipment channel because I believe he put some type of air block where you have that plastic. Couldn't find it on his video but if you ask him on his heater video he will definitely help you. czcams.com/video/wrMlkQASgU0/video.html
Hi Kagnewmp12, Thanks for the info, Biff was one of the first channels I followed and I definitely want to plumb a heater in but I don't want to void the warrantee. But is something I will be doing for sure.
