I'm sure that BMFF is the reason that mower went 4k hours.

Amirite?

 

From what it looks like the Parker Hannifin filtration group. They also make Baldwin.

 

I’m joking. I know wix makes some for others too. I may try the Baldwins, thanks for the photo

 

My suspicions are confirmed. I was sure a lot of filters came off the same assembly line. Just different paint jobs.

So is Fram the Toyota version and Wix is the Lexus version? Or the opposite?

 

Glad you got it going, hopefully the rest is good so the profit margin doesn’t go down

 

I’ve always heard wix makes Napa filters.

 

Baldwin B7020 is the 3/4-16 threaded, right diameter you need for Briggs or Kohler. Crosses to the Hastings LF589, same filter, different paint.

 

I’ve got two kohlers I can use them on.

 

Profit is good.

I've sold 4 in the last year for the same money I have in them. I try to feel out a buyer to see if they are trying to start out making a business.

If I found out later that they flipped the thing, then I may be more profit motivated.

Who are we kidding? These are a hobby, a puzzle or a gamble, or all three.

I went from working a job that cost me 65 hours a week to not working. I need a way to fill the hours. This works good.

 

Another random turn in my day.

My wife and picked up a Cricut die cutter a bit ago. As well grabbed a vinyl heat press.

Spent the day figuring it out. My main goal was to make factory like decals for these mowers. This was my 1st attempt at making "art"?

Even though it's not mower, tractor or trailer related, my intention is it will be eventually.

 

They have (or did) for years. Identical inside. Even the part numbers match, NAPA just drops the first number.
Wix 51515 = NAPA 1515 -- Common Ford/Chrysler filter (Motorcraft FL1A)

 

That sounds like me! I bought my wife one for Christmas with the intentions of me making automotive decals.

 

Played pick up sticks with the oversized wheel barrow.


Continued cleaning out the stream. It’s super spongy but was able to get something done. Attempted to spread the silt sludge and found the soft spot.


Backing up the hill in a mud hole was futile. Used the bucket to crawl out.



Love that spring mud.

 

That is on my to, do list. Neighbors tree landed in my yard. He is an absentee owner. I asked about cleaning up the trees hanging into my yard. He said "I'll get back to you".

Of course a 150' elm fell into my yard this winter.

I cut the fucker up and sold it. Fuck him.

 

I asked my neighbor the same and he was cool with it. We have a good 50’ of woods between us and the fence line is below my utility lines so I had 2 trees removed and wanted to clean up the rest.

 

My wife also has one, I need to figure it out.

 

At some point I’ll probably come knocking for one…I know they make a ton of sense for property like mine but I’m still over here clinging to a garden tractor

 

How is the B7165 working out? I might order a couple so I'm ready for the first break-in oil change.

I think I missed it, what Cub do you have?

I picked up my XT1 GT54 recently. So far very pleased with it but I've only pulled the yard cart around and haven't even had a chance to mow with it yet.

Any sweet mods or tips?

 

Download Design Space to your phone. It's a 2D cad program that really works well with touchscreens. It works with a mouse and keyboard just fine, too.

Design space is the program the Cricut unit uses. The cutter is the easy part.

There are tons of vids on using the machine.
