    Lol that mower gets me by but i hate it. 1994 exmark 36". Have basically rebuilt the entire thing. Cuts beautiful but i cant for the life of me make it throw/cage all of the grass. Its rare if i dont have to go over a lawn 2-3 times to pick everything up. Very frustrating...

    And pfft at those toro push bars :D, running a mower with these is the shiznit

    Love that rack. Don't see them on our trucks very often. Do you get wind noise from it? Did your fuel mileage change much?

    Update on this , another member did the calculation for the weight of the volume of cedar in those timbers and it turns out it was more like 1300lbs for the timbers + 200lbs for the cap

    :eek:

    Sorry for my delayed response... I get wind noise >65mph, and it's tolerable, plus I don't drive above 65 often. MPGs haven't changed.

    This one is not really "work", we went camping. Lots of stuff loaded, but nothing really heavy.
    [​IMG]

    This was for a remodel of my daughter's bedroom (built horse stable in her room :) )
    [​IMG]

    This was for props and stage backdrop items for the kids' school play. Mostly styrofoam, so not heavy; just longer than the bed.
    [​IMG]

    I moved from one office to another accross the street. These were items that I had not touched in six months, so I figured just load it on the truck and take it to the recycling dumpster instead of moving it all into the new office.
