You can actually watch the grass grow at the ninja residence, so I figured I would take advantage of the break in this weather and get caught up on the lawn. Short story long, I fucking broke the lawn mower. Bent a blade and snapped all the mounts off one of the mandrels. Lowes has replacement blades and I found a good used mandrel on garbay for $24 shipped. Luckily I busted it up on the last pass. :hillbilly:

venting complete :furious:

PNS: appearantly lawn mower replacement parts are mostly chinese too :cry:

last summer that thing ran so friggin bad...I almost set it on fire. It would take me 3 hours of messing with to get it to run. I fixed it and I has been running like new, so now I'm just going to keep it working and have a awesome lawn :dance:

looks like they are both missing a wheel :hillbilly:

I got a really old riding lawn mower that I finally got to run good, now mowing the lawn is almost fun.



I own a modern lawnboy like those it's sweet and is twocycle tons of power..

the offset wheel is for high spots and little hills.. keeps you from scalping the lawn on the high spots..

mine is like 10 plus years and still a beast!! :dance:

I used to have two lawn boys and they never handled the high spots or hill very well.


Then they grew up and moved away. :help:
