Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

And while I’m out here. Finally put up my new mailbox my kids got me for Father’s Day last year.

 

You can usually find the model number under the seat, it should be something like 917.273821 (double check yours) -- the 917 part is the Sears product source code, number 917 was originally Roper (AYP) and ended up being part of Husqvarna with Electrolux being in there too...

Here is the deck the 917.273821 number goes with:



Armed with the part numbers you can then search for price, as you said they are all over the place.

 

I'll check on him when I get down that way. May be awhile tho.

 

Ahh, just what I needed, more lawn toys. Couldn't pass it up though, even though I have a couple ZT's. I happened to run across a Ferris Walk behind with a 48'' deck for pretty cheap with a Kawasaki engine and it came home with me the next day. Went through it, adjusted the drives, greased all the zerks, and we're in business with a walk behind mower that moves out fast enough to have to jog behind at full chat. Needed nothing else but a bit of adjustments and grease, even the belts were in VG shape.

 

i wouldn't worry about it. there's enough identifying info in his profile pic(how many white 4-door tacoma's in nebraska are there with a color matched topper and roof rack?) for any bad actors to get his info anyways. it's like hiding a publicly-issued license plate.

hang around any forum long enough, or start tracking down a specific persons posts, and most of us routinely post enough identifying info scattered across multiple posts that the direct info from the receipt info is almost nothing.

 

Cheech, is that you?

 

Goodnight everyone sleep well

 

Good morning everyone, have a great and blessed day.

 

Or, ''May you end the day with the same number of fingers you started it with.''

 

That would be good too.

 

Good morning everyone

@williams63 , I couldn’t find your post to quote but I did see @wilcam47 …

My take- reframe those windows to get symmetry then your flag will fit perfectly

Yup, I got a touch of the CDO too

 

Good morning shop crew We made it past Monday.

I got an early start yesterday to catch up on my chores that I put off to pressure wash over at the kids. My 2 big items left are mow here at the house and at my wife’s business. It rained last night and more is in the forecast so that will wait. Guess I’ll go do my town runs today.

 

I read the above and my mind is screaming;

If we are Shane`s Gang it seems he has left us.

 

It was some months ago!

 

Nah, I bought it for the exercise and it definitely gives it to you.

If I want to chill or if it's to muggy and hot, I'll jump on the 30 HP Kubota ZT and knock the yard out in 45 minutes. It goes fast enough to make it's own breeze.

Get to my age and you start to look for reasons to get some exercise but be productive at the same time. I think the thing weighs close to 700 pounds so you get a workout but it gets the job done.

 

Funny, I was talking myself into buying a Wright Stander - obviously at $7000+ much more mower than I need -- ... (Cool has trumped smart before)

Got distracted and bought the truck instead.

 

I liked this one of our friend...

 

Oh..my license? Yeah it's on the back man!
