Spreading stone with my Massey 1655

[NUTNDUN]

I wanted to post about spreading 24 ton of 2B (3/4") stone at the campground. I used my Massey 1655 with the Johnson front end loader. I think overall time was around 3.5 to 4 hours. It was a little tedious but it was still fun. I did it on a work night on the way home from work. Probably would have been more enjoyable doing it on the weekend. Here is a pic or it didn't happen

Looks good George, glad you got some seat time.

It doesn't happen often but seems to be happening more often lately. Finally getting the retaining wall, grading and grass seed planted has helped a lot. Still have a lot of work to do like the fence and edging at the fence but most likely that will be next year.

And they call it work even though we are playing with our “tractors”
Looks like it did a good job

It did do a good job overall. The only complaint I have would be the bucket load capacity which is basically a wheelbarrow load perbucket. As far as leveling I mainly did it all back dragging with the back edge of the bucket.
