Mowing.....Tell us about your yard weapons.

I keep a Snapper SR1642 RER as a back up to a newer MTD...just replaced a broken chain in the differential case on the snapper...such a pleasure to work on such a well made machine...!

I do not know. I used to have access to a pressure wheel tachometer from my old job that I could have used to determine the pulley speed, but I don't work der no mo! :laughing:

How would one go about measuring the tip speed without an adjustable strobe light?

This sounds like a fun project.... I'll start another thread on that. :thumbsup:

Segway into the drain plug and it'll blow up the internet.....

How is a high tech scooter going to help? or perhaps you meant "segue" ?

I stepped in some segue down at the beach at low tide.

I flunked spelling class so I enjoy autocorrect but if it would type what I meant to say that would be great.

late 80's Kubota T1400 HST with 40 inch deck.
It was one of many my Dad killed over the years so I took it to the local small engine shop and they found that the magneto was dead.
$160 later, it was and still is mowing our very rough and rolling property.
One tough little machine and the HST is the best.

I use a Walker 48" GHS. Really nice mower but really finicky. Lots and lots of grease fittings and moving parts. Also have a couple Scag hydro walk behinds. Those are incredibly well built and sturdy mowers. They also provide a great cut quality.

Main mower JD Z665 zero turn, also have a Toro 3200 for smaller areas and a Toro 22 inch walk behind for trimming plus a Stihl straight shaft trimmer. Mow about 3 acres weekly with about 80 trees and usual flowerbeds etc.
I have a 2320 JD with 62D deck but only use that when its time to get leaves up in the fall with the Cyclone Rake.
