Wheel Horse 3D 3,780 #2478 Posted July 5, 2021 (edited) Made a trip to tend to some family business involving squatters on our land. Eviction/trespass orders served and druggies were very polite to the Mrs. when Mr. Is just behind, open carrying his 9mm carbine on land he owns! Made a visit while in the area to visit some relatives and thank them for their service. And a little reminder of my own mortality..lol Edited July 5, 2021 by Wheel Horse 3D 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just like Mom used to 'cook'!!!! I love the ones packed in Hot Sauce! "I put that chit on everything!" EXCEPT... Liverwurst (sadly, I will never again have the homemade Grosmutter brand!) and Onion on Rye with plenty of NOT YELLOW mustard!

Actually Mom was a pretty good cook. Her Sauerbraten was to die for! I think the joke was, and it may have been Rodney Dangerfield... " My wife is a pretty good cook. She cooks just like my Mother used to open! " and another of his; " Not saying my wife is a bad cook, but the flies in the neighborhood chipped in and had window screens installed on the house!"

Handy Don 12,105 #2490 Posted July 6, 2021 I suspect comments on cooking is a more controversial topic than either paint color or oil! My Dad once remarked at the table that the handmade noodles my mom served weren't as "clumpy" as the ones his Mom made. It was years before we had handmade noodles (which I loved) again. 1 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mickwhitt 4,578 #2493 Posted July 7, 2021 I decided to put our bins out last night, a day early to see if anyone caught the bug and put theirs out. Turns out four of my neighbours don't know what day it is 🤣 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mickwhitt 4,578 #2494 Posted July 7, 2021 OK. So. Been thinking if ways to mount a petrol hedge trimmer on the C-125 so I can sickle cut grass and weeds by the path edge. Needed something that was height adjustable and that keeps the cutter bar horizontal. Came up with an arm which swings up and down but maintains the orientation of the end fixture. Made a model of it to test the theory and manufacture method. Then made the mounting bracket to fit to the plow frame for extra versatility. Its only part done but I think it will be ok. I made it swivel on a slew ring so I can stow it for road travel. The arm on the photos is the model just so I could see what it would work like. I will make up the real one and then work out how to attach the powered trimmer to it. Mick 1 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Horse Newbie 7,051 #2498 Posted July 8, 2021 Finally...after having 10 trees cut down(too many leaves, pollen, sticks, acorns) in my yard in mid May, I finally finished the detailed clean up. Grass coming back pretty decent where it looked like Patton's army came through... Washed my wheel barrow, rake, shovel, and pitch fork to go back in the building... 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lee1977 6,632 #2500 Posted July 9, 2021 Been restoring the 1964 Eddleman mower I got last year. Have the base cleaned up and painted. Had to cut the rusted pulleys off Ordered some Tuesday form Zoro were on the front porch this morning. Could not get the rusted on tires off the split rims with out cutting them. Got the rusted rims repaired just need to get them painted. When I get the mower back together I'll give the 8 HP Biggs a try to see if it's any good. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
