    Standard old 6203 2RS bearing, you can rebuild the originals for spares for just a few bucks.

    The grass is crunchy here, blowing clouds of dust when mowing.
    I was pretty dirty after 7 lawns -- and laying on the ground cutting the Paracord out... :mad:

    It's crunchy here too, it's usually not this bad until mid July.

    I was thinking that too, until about 2 weeks ago I was mowing twice a week.
    I'm about 1000 miles North of you too.

    Remains to be seen I bought the tires and wheels the rest came along
    The product I saw worked great. Made just for this application .

    It has been 30 years ago reapplied about once a month when the rest of the machine was serviced.

    Good for about 300 hours .

    How is the pond doing?

    As Nestle waters ramps up production the water table really drops

    One of the main sources is at the base of the hill I live on .

    My catch basin pond is almost dry.

    See, there you go applying logic in a situation where it has no business… So, you’re gonna mow, now what? Always apply yourself headfirst into any situation. Always lead by example… even if it’s a cautionary tale to others.
