60+ year old thread.

You have one?

Just got done painting the soffit and facia---, one of those days!
Started off by making a mess while pouring the paint from the gal. bucket into a small container, then the small container of paint fell off of the ladder and made another mess, paint splashed all over me and the ladders plus the ground.
Later on I went to clean up the lid and the top of the gal. bucket, and lost my hold on the lid which ended up about midriff with the paint side against my shirt.
I've painted quite a bit and never had things happen like today!
The good news is: I didn't fall off the ladder!!!

 

That sounds like me painting ... you reckon that's why Kristi won't let me paint inside?

 

Awesome way to make your door go out of adj.
We use stuff like this to get it to close. Dumb
The tomato soup can metal we have don't like stuff like this.
Oh yea. Smelled brakes on the way to pick up my driveway sealer.
Lucky me had a rr caliper seize. So I fixed that..... Better now than after vacation.

 

But Also.

Hey Dave, where did you get that pic of me??? Dave? Dave?

Dave's not here...

 

Still one of my favorite bits ever.

 

6am before the sun beats down. 3 hours later. 85 in the shade. At least it's done.

 

Absolutely

Afternoon all:
At least Mikes getting things done, and hopefully will be fishing tomorrow!

Actually I'm on a roll with projects this year, but then there's that darn bathroom.

Just got done with a full mowing with the Scag zero turn; 3 1/2 hrs. instead of 6 1/2. I will cut that down further once I figure out the best way to use it.
One thing that's messing me up is the discharge is in the opposite side of the deck, which means I will be mowing everything opposite of the way I did it before.

 

Hi Carl
Yes I am getting things done.
The stuck caliper was not in the list though.
I have never seen a discharge chute that was not on the right side.
I would be so screwed up with that.....
Trolling motor batteries are charging at this time.
One more day of vacation.... I have been very fortunate thus week

 

Hello Cool Old Dudes and Susan

"Old dog, new trick" ... I bet you get down under 3 hrs next time out.

 

Don't bet on that; after mowing a certain way for 25 yrs., it may take awhile!!!

Here ya go Mike, now you have seen one with a LH discharge. Deutz Allis 917H-----exact same as a Simplicity 7117, except painted green with the Deutz decals.

 

It's still driving ... I stand by my bet, or I fill the cooler.

 

Here's the replacement, sure hope I get the service out of it as I did out of the Deutz.
Darn discharge is on the wrong side!!!

 

Wow. That is just wrong... Lol

 

, !

 

No the "right side".....

 

As to me not being here: don't know what you're talking about, man.

Wow that is quite a time reduction. Is it because the deck is wider or that you can go faster? I see folks *flying* around yards on those zero-turn mowers.

I'm with Mike - the right side is the "right" side.

Speaking of mowers, I just saw that one of my neighbors has a Steiner. Quite a thing to behold, even though it is massive overkill for a yard the size of his. (Pic is generic.)

 

happy Sunday boys...

X3 on the flying mowers I'll stick to me push mower - don't have a big enough yard for a riding mower.
