A friend of mine was on his MMM and reached over to pick up a piece of wire. About the time he got the wire in his hand the other end was caught by the blades. As it ripped the wire out of his hand he was lucky he did not lose any fingers just a lot of stiches (28 to be exact).

I learned a good lesson from this dont grab wire. I grabbed a hickory branch and it did the same thing. The lawnmower ripped the branch through my hand at the speed of light. Lost some skin, and I am now much smarter.

Murf,
You are so right about the Ball cap I ducked but not low enough. I now have "personnel observation" with the term "Knothead".

The ruger 10/22 will not shoot 22 shorts. The auto will not eject them. I have found that 22 longs are less expensive than shorts anyway. Stay away from the black 22 longs they leave resdue on your hands as well as the gun. I prefer the 22 mini mags (not cheap) good rounds that always fire. They burn clean and are consistent on the 40 to 60 yrd range. Dont by a 22 scope, buy a scope that will focus on the target. Rule of thumb zero the gun at 25 yrds and it should be good for the 60 yrd range.
I shoot mine all the time you can get a 25 round clip for the gun. They are the best and most fun if not you will spend all your time loading that 10 round clip.

Have fun and be careful gun safety is no joke.

As a rule if you by a Chinese tractor (I have one) you need to be somewhat mechanically inclined. You will have to work on them and parts maybe a problem. I am no mechanic but I have not had any major problems. A leak here and there. I dont think I would buy one if I had to make a living with it. A good dealer is worth his weight in parts.

hope you luck

You may check and see when the Migrant workers (Whipple tree seed spreaders)are in your area. I hear they work for a set price depending on location. They also have their own equipment so no time wasted waiting for tools.

Iowafun,

I lived with a friend of mine for 8 months in 1993 when I was changing jobs before my wife and kids could come down. We had always had electric everything, He had a 40 year old gas stove and oven. There is nothing like cooking on gas.

When we got the new house we got an gas range top with electronic igniters. The burners slip out as a unit and go right in the Dish washer I can do it. This unit is 15 years old they now have new easy clean range tops. That is the next step we take. We kept the electric oven as a seperate unit. All wall mounted with the micro wave. For kids a trick I use with burners and ovens. When you cook in the oven and the door gets warm (if you leave your hand on it will get hot)I got my children to touch the door and they learned warm to hot with out any adverse action. From then on hot was hot dont touch.

Gas range top, electric oven thats my vote. We fill our tank up 140 lbs every 5 years wheather we need it or not.

The old saying "Now you are cooking with gas" has a whole new meaning.

Hardwood,

I have seen several people use the propane cilinder heaters that blow out the heated air. They point in the area they are working and turn it off when they are through. This way they only heat when they need it and not the whole building.

Billy,

There is no argument, Pine bark in my grill, limbs all over the road, my eyes are not painted on. Tarp them what a concept. Do something. Why do they tarp dump trucks? I drive 30 miles to work there are pine trees planted on both sides of the roads in neat little rows. That is alot of trees, and a lot of hauling. Just want them to clean up their act. Be responsible!!!!!

Bvinduck,

I do not know what you mean by off name brand. Just because it says JD does not mean anything where batteries are concerned. Any good battery with the proper amps and voltage will be just fine. Will it fit in the battery case on your tractor? Will the leads fit on the battery post. What does the manual require? You get what you pay for. Mine cost 85 dollars and has lasted for 3 years. The battery my tractor came with was junk from China. I told the guy at the auto parts store what I had for a tractor, he looked in a couple of books and said that was the unit I needed. If it does not work bring it back. Luck or by desgin you make the call.

good luck

KT,

The real reason for plowing in circles is so they dont get lost. When they finish the 360 they say " I have been here before, now I know where I am at". And the process continues.

MURF,
Sorry, could not let that pass.
