Tractors, Mowers, Chippers, Trailers, Chainsaws, Generators, Driveway Erosion Control, ETC.

I put these on the Duramax, about the only time I extend them is pulling the camper and as soon as I unhook they go back in.

 

I etching primed the outsides of my 3205s body. 30psi in the HF purple gun and almost no overspray. Will spray yellow primer over it before spraying the Int'l yellow. The hood will be black.



I don't remember if I posted this before but if y'all are getting beat up on your mower tractor suspension seats are the shiz-nit to save your back. I mounted a Beco seat from Atwoods on my XT3 and it is so much better than the rear spring seat there is no comparison. Ride height is the same after you sit on it and it lowers. The top of my seat cushion is 9" above the seat base. Worth every penny and more.

 

That is nice!

 

Deck laid down. Running after fasteners.

 

I converted another pair of garden tractor front spindles from flange bearing wheels to boat hubs that will accept 4-lug golf cart wheels. Involves cutting the backing ring off, welding a 1-1.25" tractor top link adapter on for the bearing to stop on and seal to ride on. I get my bearing preload by hanging it down and pushing the sleeve up against the bearing and then welding it on.

It was so hot yesterday that I didn't want to wear pants. Wore flip flops and shorts until time to weld then put some welding sleeves on my legs. Have a laugh on me.

 

That can't be unseen.

 

Them getaway sticks get me across the street every time.

 

Was ttrying to figure out why them shorts looked so familiar. Its the Ebay logo color scheme.

 

Those are some shorts I've had since 1995 or so. Have "Georgetown" embroidered on the leg.

 

Really? We would have never guessed.

 

Ha! I'm wearing a T-shirt right now that I bought in 1992

 

Well, I guess there are a few people out there even cheaper than me.

 

AC/DC world tour shirt?

 

I have some really old tshirts that I've rarely worn.
See, what happens is the wife does laundry way too often and I always just grab whatever's on top in the drawer. So the first 3 or 4 shirts get worn constantly until they're retired to rag duty and the shirts on the bottom of the drawer never see the light of day.
I need to just flip the whole stack one of these days

 

Dad sent me a Far Side t-shirt that he had hanging in the closet for 30 years. Never worn. I rarely wear it. Don't want to mess it up.

 

My wife does the laundry, she shrink my pants in the dryer -- oddest thing is it is always just the waist, never the length.

 

These springs

 

The trailer saga is over and it’s tagged and inspected (lame RI yearly requirement).

took the time yesterday to seal the decking as it hasn’t been done. I found a very old can of wood sealer which was mostly full, still sloshed like liquid and sealed. Good enough for now. Found a 4” brush in the cabinet.


2 coats later to use as much as possible and done. Today I did a water test and it was beading. I’ll call it done.
