Shop Time w/T.W. Friends. Where is your wallet…..poll

i should have known that

 

Finally!!

 

Oddly enough, I'm in the green for 10mm. I'm just missing that 8mm.

It's driving me nuts not having the set complete!

 

I might have an extra one, ill check tomorrow

 

Awesome!
Thanks!

The only fastener I can think of using that size on is the cable clamp for the throttle or choke on a Kohler or Kawasaki small engine.

Yes, wondering where that socket went to wakes me up.

 

Driving all your nuts except for an 8mm.

 

I like that... mind if I borrow it?

 

That's a bonus!

 

Sure, as long as you don't put it under your avatar.

10 HP Wisconsin engine in this bad boy.

They have an SD series engine, a lower cost (but not cheap) engine used in quality garden tractors likes Bolens back in the 1960's. It was a Bolens that got me started with the Wisconsins -- the exhaust has a very appealing bark when you crack the throttle.

 

I saw this ad and my thoughts instantly went to "Whats the bigger lawnmower engine I could fit in this?" I started to look at the 22hp Horizontal Shaft Predator engine. My thoughts then quickly devolved into "Can my 6'4" ass even fit in that thing?"
When I saw your post I immediately remembered it saying it had the Wisconsin engine in it. Thanks for the history!

 

The King Midgets were road legal and had a title like a regular car. Most of the time now it seems the title has been lost because people treated them more like go carts than cars. There was one here that ran around town into the 1980's.

 

They want too much for what would be a novelty for me. It does claim a clean title though.

 

Good morning friends! Lots of catching up to do this morning, hope everyone has an amazing day

 

Morning all,
Have a great Tuesday

 

Thought I may have one, turns out the loose one is a 4mm that broke off the set

 

Here’s the swinging door out of the cattle trailer that will soon have a sliding door attached.

 

Goodmorning crew
Back to the old grind today, not much in the way of actual hands on work but scheduling me for outage preparation/work package approval.
Nice story share @RustyGreen
We had pretty nice day so I spent the afternoon catching up on yard work and spraying some weeds with roundup and weed not grass killer on the random dandelions n such. Didn't even get the transmission cleaned up. Supposed to be 85° today but then a cold front to bring severe weather around 6 PM this evening.
No damage causing storms..please, please

 

Good Morning Wrenchmen

Looks like a good morning to work at the desk.
I call it "Clash of the Titans" -- in one corner the checkbook and the other the bill pile -- which will win?
