Now that is some fancy stuff. No more crawling under the deck to sharpen the blades laying down on your side.

Yup, and not having sparks fly back at you.

I do admit, I should have taken the air hose and gotten rid of all the dust/sand, I did take a bit of dirt bath.

I picked up a slightly used Porter Cable sander today.. now to find a place for it. Thinking it needs to go on a cart with the 8" similar grinder. No homo.

Replaced the "transmission" in my self-propelled lawn mower and it blew again. I think the rear subframe is bent in and that's what's causing it to blow out. However, when I installed the transmission, nothing was binding and both sides were turning freely. So I'm done putting money into this 12 year old mower so I went out and bought this. I"m liking it more than I thought I would at first. Hopefully it holds up. This is the brand new one that was just released and it's supposed to have the kinks worked out from the first gen model. It'll take any 20V-60V DeWalt battery.

Wish I could just pay someone to use their own equipment to do the lawn so I do not have care to care. I would keep a string trimmer around for touch up work but the rest would not be my problem.

I have a guy, charges me $35 (I pay him $40) and he comes every week.. he does an awesome job. Better job than I would do. There are actually two guys, when they trim around the pool one guy trims and the other guy uses the leaf blower to keep crap out of the pool. Those guys actually now mow 4 houses in a row to include mine.

That's the ticket. I just have a blower and trimmer. Fuck yardwork

Dang distribution jets on the fuel rail got clogged up on my pressure washer's carb yesterday.

Guess my cleaning in winter wasn't thorough enough to get out 5 years worth of sitting. Main jet was OK but the rail under it not so much. Few small pcs of debris cloged it up. Just glad it was a carb issue - the way it was running had me thinking it was catastrophic - didn't sound like fuel issues.

When I finally get out of here and into my forever home a large ultrasonic cleaner will be on the list of tools required. No better way to clean a carb

Need some new recovery gear but there's some thing so wanna get done before I drop money on TOO gear. So I found a 30% off and free shipping coupon on the other forum for gear from Supreme Suspensions. Figured for $76 for a kinetic strap, receiver block, and shackle, I'd give them a shot.

Speaking of Snap On tools, I got some for free the other week from work. A researcher had moved out of a lab and left this behind. This dude had a great eye for tool quality as most of it is American or German made.

Unfortunately some idiot pried this open instead of drilling out the lock so the front panel is bent pretty bad.

There was a couple of these blue point persuasion implements in there.

I bet this thing is still worth some money even though it doesn't work anymore lol

Probably my favorite score out of all the tools. This thing barely looks used and still runs great!
