I came to the realization that I am old a few years ago. When I was younger I always wanted to own an MG Midget, but I could not afford a toy at that time and it really was not practical for me. I drove a friends once and I loved that car; it fit my frame perfectly. That was 50 years and and 80...

I think that you should put in a claim against your homeowner insurance. A tragedy this significant should merit full restitution. After all, since rates are going up almost monthly you should be able to recoup your loss.

Those buckets of rifle and pistol brass in your first picture look good. It looks like you need to spend more time reloading. Those buckets are too full. Nice progression in your welds. You appear to learn quickly.

With the rocks that you describe I don't think that you will damage a box blade and I don't think you will damage your tractor either. If you use reasonable care with your implement and practice good common sense you probably will not have a problem. Just remember that your tractor is small for...

I have a lawn such as what you describe and I was not successful in leveling it with a box blade. My property is on glacial till and I have a lot of big rocks everywhere on my property. When using the box blade with the scarifier blades set to the most shallow cut level, it still would get hung...

Did you bend the bucket or just the loader arms?

You need to look at the following links if you really believe that acetone is not useful for absorbing water in fuel. Although acetone does not actually remove water from fuel, it does absorb it and allows it to burn with the fuel. This is true if the amount of acetone is equal to or greater...

I use acetone to remove water in my fuel. Since acetone is 100% miscible it works well. I use 1 ounce acetone per 5 gallons of diesel in the summer and 1 ounce acetone per 3 gallons of diesel in the winter.

11 Years ago I put in some green colored 10 year coolant in mine. I guess it is time to change it this year.

Don't go solely by my opinion. You may want to wait and see if others reply with more sure knowledge than I have.

Until reading this thread I never thought about PPE for using a chain saw. I actually did not know that they made chaps or Kevlar pants. I have been using a chain saw for more than 55 years, cutting at least 5 cords of wood per year and never thought about having an accident with a chain saw...

I am by no means an expert but it seems to me that since the engine code is the same for both engines that they should be compatible.

The OP also mentioned that it appeared to have new rims. A machine that old and appears to have been well taken care of makes me think that the previous owner made sure that the tire ratios are correct.

I never see any ads and the site runs perfectly 99.9% of the time for me. I have used Adblock plus for many years but I recently found one that so far seems better. AdBlocker Ultimate is what I have been using for the last several months. It is so carefree that unless you check the statistics...

Obviously photo-shopped. That silhouette is showing right handed carry on the left hip. Not at all convenient to draw the gun.

As mentioned by Russell King in post#4, loosen the screw that is the indicator and then turn the adjusting knob to where you want it. After you get the weight adjusted, re-tighten the indicator screw to lock it in place for the weight you have chosen.

I have found that E6000 glue works very well for many applications. It is cheap, easy to use and works very well...

I like the idea of your Tractor Relief Tool. It seems to me that it not only makes it easy to relieve excess hydraulic pressure, it appears that it would also prevent damage to the coupling when using it to relieve pressure in the lines.

The hydraulic fluid level should be checked when the tractor is shut down for the day because the oil level will always be higher when the engine and transmission are hot, than when the engine and transmission are cold.

I would run the tractor and work it as always and check the fluid level right after shutting it down for the day. Check the level when the tractor is parked in the same place every day. If the level stays the same each time you check it at the end of the day, then do not add any more fluid. The...
