    Who's gone Li-Ion mower and lawn trimmers? Watcha think?

    I have a stihl trimmer and blower that are battery. Love the stuff, no turning back to gas on those items. Mine is the "AP" series, the "AK" stuff is really strong also just a little cheaper price, for a couple thousand sq feet of lawn I would be using a batt mower also but my lawn is much...

    My trucks flatbed looks like ****

The way it is set up is: there is a selector switch on top of the wand trigger, it reads "off" "soap" "rinse". Off...

    Slab install question

    My concern is that the slab would be under the girt, since it is commercial girting they are installed flat like a bookshelf between the posts. Foam would have to be nearly 5 inches thick to fill the gap from the skirt board to inside of the girt

    Need help with broken bolt Lawn Tractor
