The side, slide.... is not a method I recommend. Actually, I think this tractor was LEAVING the dealer. Got about a mile away. I don't know what happened but my wife passed it before me and warned me (so I had my camera ready) There was truck/trailer in the median, facing almost the...

Thought I'd mention, I looked online and found: "Carpenter bees are attracted to cedar wood and prefer untreated, unpainted wood. To prevent infestations, consider using carpenter bee-resistant wood, such as cedar, redwood, and pressure-treated lumber. Carpenter bees burrow into woods to build...

I've got a voice in the back of my head saying that I've read somewhere that cedar is naturally insect repellent. If that is not true, the following won't matter. If it IS true.... then here's my question. Wife at an estate sale, came across a number of rough cut boards. Person told her...

Ouch, what are the odds! If it was a deck screw, did the ferry pay a portion? For all we know, this happens all the time..... they just toss the car overboard to get rid of the evidence....! :oops:

Nope, no fender issues at all. The anchor was flush with tire so was totally imbedded into tire. As I was at tire shop waiting for new tire, I got to thinking (fearing) that this bolt may have speared the rim on the inside, but seems it didn't. What I DID "fix".... these tires are probably...

New tires on hybrid. Driving to a work location the other day. Felt a bit of an odd thump BUT, this road has had some potholes filled.... drove on. Get to work location. Happened to be the county Highway Dept. Do my stuff...end of day go to car to go home. Pull out of parking spot into...

amazon...wow. didnt think to look there!

I get the joy of having crohns. Been on Stelara for 10 years....insurance company says it's too much, you have to use this Steqeyma. I take an injection once a month. Back story, I use a high deductible on my health insurance. Stelera pays the copay. I time my injections so I'm getting them...

Question (background first) I've been (carefully) going through this bible. There are obituaries in there dating back to 1898 and births noted in there going back to 1886. This is on dedicated pages in the book to commemorate these events. I then have some loose papers, maybe a newspaper...

I don't know your machine but I'd lean to disagreeing with that logic. Literally, about 3 days ago, I noticed a slow drip from my loader bucket dump cylinder, only one of them. I rebuilt that maybe 15 years ago. Over time of owning machine, I've redone virtually every cylinder. Not "tough"...

Trans filter probably changed two years ago. Yea, the fender deck (no idea what it would have been called!) Took it all down when I had to replace the inner wheel bearing on one side, but did both. I think I've figured it out. The left brake is the one that had 'flopped' with no spring...

I'm amazed. (with myself!) lol Got to thinking that if you hit the brakes, it shouldn't keep trying tp drive forward/reverse. Am I looking under the right rock? I didn't mention above, because I didn't think it important. The brakes on this are pretty useless. That's fine, I don't really...

Bought this 430 several years ago. Been working fine. Couple years ago the forward reverse lever "slowed down" Meaning, instead of going to 100% forward and 100% reverse, it might only go to 70% forward and 40% reverse. Like it's motion has narrowed. Have chassis off now (mower still on...

does he try to control direction of fall?
