Bill, the wife and I love to fish. We go every weekend and have been on vacation this past week, we fished most everyday. We caught a limit of channel cat this morning in fact (10 each). Our freezer is overflowing right now, need to haul another bunch up to my Mother. She loves catfish. Our...

Good to have you here - Neil!!

Check out a site called "mowproducts.com" they can come up with about any blade.

Keep battling Jay!! Best wishes from Kansas.

Lots of Grasshoppers in NE Kansas, good machines, spendy but good. The biggest draw back to them (IMHO) is they are mowers and nothing else. A friend had a snow blade for his but it was useless in the snow. The dealer he bought his from let him trade for a new one every year for a small fee...

Yes, corn starch.

Arthur Treacher's was the first fish and chips I ate, it was great!! We like Long John Silver's fish too. Corn starch is the secret to making a good batter, 1/2 corn starch, 1/2 flour, a couple of egg whites beat up and folded in last, the seasoning you want, and a warm beer. Pretty good on fish.

I had never heard of Bush Hog tractors until I saw this post. Looks like a well built machine. They must have been regional and not popular in the midwest. Wheel Horse is somewhat like that as well, not many around this area.

Paul, I like the BCS lineup but found it to be very "spendy" by the time you purchase everything you need. They are tough little machines though.

Brandi, hope you get feeling better, my allergies have been acting up some, being sick stinks. Especially when it's so darn hot. I might be down your way soon, rescuing the daughter that lives in Humble. Son-in-law is a jacka$$, looks like a divorce is pending. She and the kids will live...

Older Cub Cadets were very tough mowers, as are Wheel Horse, and some John Deeres. They were made much tougher in the 60's and 70's than the throw-away machines you see everywhere today. Something with an actual transmission and shaft drive are the best IMHO. Engine replacement is simple if...

My tractor had junk in the tank when it was new, I drained and flushed the tank and have never had anymore trouble. I reused the fuel, just strained it through a rag before putting it back in. There was a screen type filter in the tank outlet that I removed when I drained it. Might be worth a...

Which moderator? MikePA or Mossroad? Both are peckerheads in my book.

Eric, I have a shuttle shift as well, I really like it, very good for loader work IMHO. Now if it were syncro, that would be the ticket.

My neighbor has a 2-32 White (I think I have the numbers correct), anyway, it is a 4wd and it has the Iseki engine in it. He swears that it is very common and parts are available. I had been on fire and burnt up all hoses, belts, etc. He wants $5000 for it and it's not running. It does have...
