You will notice the flicker in an LED more than an incandescent light because the LED turns off immediately. An incandescent light will remain bright for a short while because the filament is still hot. Flakily electrical connections will be noticeable with an LED that you may not notice with an...

Well, I had to accept the challenge. Found out that I have a cavity! I must have gone too far with the scope...

That's my problem!

Thanks guys, very helpful. The more I think about this something around 24" might be easier to handle getting onto the deck. I was thinking something bigger to do sidewalks and some driveway but maybe don't need it. These days snow is wetter and heavier than the storms of the good old days. Any...

Thanks. One of the uses would be for cleaning my deck. I will have to get up three stairs so weight will be an issue. I was thinking of using a ramp to get it up the steps. I will also have to deal with the snow from the metal roof piling up on the deck so can't go too small.

Looking for a used two stage around 30" wide with electric start and would like to get inputs from anyone as far as reliability, parts availability and whatever other comments of various makes. Looking for a two stage probably around 30" wide with electric start. Thanks

Happy Veterans Day to all veterans!!! When I was young and knew everything, it was during the Vietnam War days. I didn't get drafted and didn't sign up. I don't want to get into the politics of the war at that time, the only thing I will say that I was not a war protester. As I got older and no...

Theft is always a concern, even where I live now, and I'm willing to accept that with this new property. I know several other people that have camps up there and they leave ATV's, tractors, snowmobiles, whatever outside even when they are not there. Not saying theft is not a possibility, but so...

Agree, that is a concern.

Thanks for the inputs guys. I'm going to pass on the BX I was considering. If the mowers I have are too big, I would have to buy a mowing deck for this. As is it's more than I should be spending right now. My what I want are much bigger than my what I can. :(

Came across a BX24 with backhoe, loader and snow plow, unknown hours. Has this been a reliable tractor?

And if it works it's FM

Auctions are something I will look into but am concerned with the unknows with the tractor.

I hope I'm not getting into a war about OEM vs China parts and is my tractor worth saving the money to buy Chinese, but we will see where this goes. The only question I have is has anyone used the Chinese knockoffs of the Kubota and are they any good? Big difference in price, $90 for Kubota vs...

That's why I may wait until I find the right thing and hopefully be able to afford something more expensive. I don't want to get something cheap that isn't what I want and wish for more. Hell, my wish to get a mini excavator has flown out the window.
