It has nothing to do with a grounded ethernet cable. It has to do with unbalanced grounds and the ethernet cable acting as an unintentional ground cable. It has been know to fry ethernet switch gear.

Ethernet cable will work but personally I'd go with fiber. Pre-terminated lengths are very affordable and you avoid potential grounding differential issues that is known to fry hardware. Put a conduit in the trench along with the water line.

My grandfather gave me one 35 years ago. I'm not sure where he got it from but I recall the box wasn't new when I got it. I was young then and still have it but I recall it is not very user friendly.

That is a great question and my honest answer is that some of the upgrades are not done because of a potential yield gain. Some of them are done because original parts are worn and need to be replaced so the upgrade doesn't cost as much. The high speed upgrades are done so we can cover acres...

Without reading all previous replies here's my answer. 250' is amateur hour for Ubiquiti stuff. I have numerous links in excess of 2 miles running first gen NanoBeams with cameras in remote locations. I also have a few AC links running at about a mile with perfect signal strength.

That's cool! I'm not that resourceful but this planter is like a child to me. It's the most important piece of machinery on my farm because I only have on chance to plant my crops. I joke (kind of) that every farmer should be able to take is planter apart and put it back together which their...

I've been a member of this forum for many years. Read lots of stuff but not really participated. I'm active on several ag forums but thought I'd show the members here what happens in my "garage". It's really a farm shop. 70x80, heated, and used for some storage and general farm equipment...

Roof will be ribbed steel to match the existing roof. I've been thinking about it for a while now and have a plan formulated in my head. I'll meet with a builder after the first of the year and go from there.

I should also say that this planter was not worn out but I was doing some other upgrades and had it half apart already so this was the best time to tackle this job.

The technology we put on these machines is amazing. There are "dumb" planters that are ground driven and don't tell the operator what is going on and then there are precision, high speed machines, which this is. Each row has hydraulic down pressure control to ensure the row unit maintains...

So here is the project I'm working on. Not exactly "garage" stuff. It's my planter and all the holes on the parallel linkages are worn. Normal wear and since John Deere is so smart they make the linkages softer than the bushings. So I took it all apart and purchased an aftermarket kit that...

I got my new Ellis 9400 drill press today. Ordered it Friday from Trick-Tools.com and picked it up from the local XPO depot this afternoon instead of waiting until tomorrow afternoon for delivery. It was easy to uncrate and stand up using my forklift and I had it running within 30 minutes of...

It's going in a farm shop. General repairs, equipment upgrades, etc. Current project requires reaming out 128 1/2" holes to 5/8" and another 128 holes from 1 1/16th to 1 1/8th. Plus another 128 29/64th holes drilled. I'm fairly certain my cheap drill press crapped out with the big reamer

I purchased this unit for $4,500 + shipping. It appears new units like you mention start at $6,500. I'm not sure I'd consider that the same price range. The reality is that the Ellis is already twice as much as I initially planned on spending and when you live in the middle of no where buying...

I currently have a 70x80x19 wood frame shop with a 5/12 roof. I'm making plans to add a 92x26 lean to on the south side that will house an office, 2 car garage, and some cold storage. My office/entertainment area will be 24x26 and the garage will be 34x26 with the remainder being cold storage...

Well guys, after hours scouring the internet and trying to make a few phone calls on Friday, I came to the conclusion that what I was looking for didn't exist. I studied the Dake units A LOT and almost ordered one from Trick-Tools. Then I visited with a few friends who have Ellis...

Looks interesting.....also not available for several months.

Good evening! Long time member but seldom post. I have a Northern Tool drill press that is about 10 years old in my farm shop. I've never been fond it. Today the speed control decided to quit working and I have zero desire to fix it. While I'd really like an Ellis I can't really justify...

It seems that air cleaners/purifiers are all the rage in the new shops going on our area. It appears that they do a good job of sucking up dust fumes and keeping things cleaner. It also appears that they are fairly pricey! Can anybody give me some facts about how may air exchanges/hour are...
