Finally received the parts and got the Dixon 4421 I've had sitting for three weeks, running, and ready to deliver tomorrow. Then I get to start the fun and games. We had a customer's Cub Cadet Z Force LZ commercial unit in with a broken frame. (Still haven't figured out if he did it or just...

Today was busy. Re-wired my 10ft trailer. Delivered two push mowers. (That check paid for the wife's business website and the daughter's prom dress). Picked up another push mower from someone else. Finished the service on my push mower and sent the son out to mow the yard. Got everything done I...

Picked up a couple of push mowers to work on Saturday. Got the son, daughter, and daughter's boyfriend organized and cleaning/mowing the front yard while I fiddled with mowers today. Ran to a neighboring town to toss some scrap wood on a friend's burn pile. One push mower is about ready. The...

Not much. Did some work Sunday on a Cub Cadet LTX 1050 I'm prepping for sale. Had some fun time with the youngest grandson for his birthday party. Lat couple of days has been cleanup and jockeying things around for mowing season. Already getting calls from folks wanting mower service/repair...

Mowers are what I do for a living. They all have their quirks and issues. The biggest issue for most of them is that people abuse them. That said, from personal experience: I've worked on more Green and Yellow tractors and ZTR's in the last two years than any other brand. (I work for a...

This is what we use for most things in the small engine shop where I work. I have one in my garage for the side work I do. I don't have time to do a lot of my own work on the trucks. I have a good mechanic within a few blocks that handles everything but what is dealer specific for me, for a...

Did a little more clean up. Cut an oak board I had lying around into the pieces I'll need come Sunday. My youngest grandson has shown the most interest in tools etc, so for his fourth birthday I've decided he is going to "help" me build him a crayon holder and lap pad to hold his crayons...

Spent part of yesterday calculating and planning LED lights. Thanks to some previous threads here I think I have it figured out. Tonight, after I call an old Army buddy, that I haven't talked to in 26 or 27 years, I'll do some more organizing and cleaning. Next week I hope to be getting some...

Not doing much today. Santa brought me some new tools and box for work and I'm figuring out how I want it organized.

I used to do it myself. However, for me right now I take it and have it done. I have access to an old school mechanic with his own shop. He's damn good at what he does and charges a fair price. (Once, at work, I went out to leave, turned the key and the battery was toast, Wouldn't jump etc...

Here's my current one.
