    When I worked 2nd shift at the hospital we were given the task of cleaning all the ceiling vents in one office. The guy with me says how we gonna do all these in one night? I told him get them all down and wait until the kitchen staff leaves. A commercial conveyor dishwashing machine works wonders!

    I failed to clean the tub before the warden saw it. Cost me $15K for a new bathroom. Don't ever use the wardens tub to tan a bear hide.

    April 7, 1970, the legendary actor John Wayne wins his first—and only—acting Academy Award, for his star turn in the director Henry Hathaway’s Western True Grit. Wayne appeared in some 150 movies over the course of his long and storied career. He established his tough, rugged, uniquely American screen persona most vividly in the many acclaimed films he made for the directors John Ford and Howard Hawks from the late 1940s into the early 1960s. He earned his first Oscar nomination, in the Best Actor category, for Sands of Iwo Jima (1949). The Alamo (1960), which Wayne produced, directed and starred in, earned a Best Picture nomination.

    Finally unloaded this from my truck on Saturday with the help of a neighbor, then removed my plow from my 312-8 and with the help of another neighbor we got the mower deck on and I commenced the 2026 lawn mowing season. Afterwards, I relaxed looking over my efforts while listening to good music and enjoying one of two very refreshing gin and tonics!

    Haha! Reminds me of when I was still living at home right around 21yrs old. My grandpa owned 2 Cadillac dealerships so of course thats what we typically all drove. I was cleaning my Coupe deVille on a weekend & spending too much time trying to clean the wire wheel hubcaps. Got creative, removed them & put them in dishwasher! Mom was suspicious cause I was running dishwasher & her suspicion was right. Let's just say she wasn't really happy & what made things worse was when my dad found out he thought it was a great idea too!

    Washed the mud off then remover the tiller from the 312H. Then installed the 48" SD. The electric hoist really makes it easy to pick a deck from the storage skid and roll it in position under the raised tractor.

    We had a new children's director join the staff at our church. The previous director always hand washed all of he small toys after the children left for the day, the new director ran them through the kitchen dish washer for the first and last time. Some of the plastic toys looked rather frightening after being sanitized at about 190 degrees and the ones that retained their shape had a good deal of water in them.

    Hung the “microscopic” 32” deck on the 867 in preparation of mowing here in a week (hopefully). Deck isnt as wide as the rear tires!

    I know this expression and was never quite sure whether it implied respect, fear, or resignation. Perhaps all three.

    Thank you for the help! This is the story of how I received my Wheel Horse...My grandfather bought it in the early 80s it was used but in good shape...He used it for about 35 years then he gave it to my Dad. My Dad used it to mow the grass for about 5 years then it sat in storage Until I decided to work on it with my grandfather. My grandfather and I got it running and have kept it running for 8 years and I plan to keep it running.

    Many thanks to Dan @Achto! He swung by last week and dropped off a great looking used center cap for dad😎🙌🏻. He recommended a dap of black silicone so that we don’t have a repeat “offense” and a fresh decal and we are in business! I love the community here. We have been super busy fixing up Caleb’s house he purchased from a “hoarder”, traveling many miles for ministry (we leave Sunday for a missions trip to central Italy), Caleb’s getting married this year and Claudia likely next year, and Zach is back in the shop neck deep on a restore/refurbish project that he is selling to a friend of ours. It is a red 682 Cub Cadet. Thanks Dan for the tip on the makeshift ventilation system, Zach can’t wait to try it later this week…

    This moniker and quote made me think of an old cement truck drive who drive Rambler station wagons and sold crates eggs as a side income back in the 1960’s in Indiana ! Eggs came from his place and were always fresh and he lived 70 miles away from us. The “warden “ comment though sparked my memory! He use to be quite a talker and he would always talk about his wife (who we finally met after five or six years) . He called her “ the battle axe” ! Which I have not heard anyone else use since!

    Might have been somewhat deformed but I'll bet they were definitely sanitized. I call that technically correct.

    Honestly I don't mind the column hydro controls, when i was growing up my dad had the old red cub cadet's that had the column hydro's so I got used to it. Will do! Hopefully I can start digging into it tonight! Good, it didn't run so I was a little nervous about the hydro pump. It seems like it was well cared for, the guy I got it from, it was his grandfather's and he bought it new. He passed away a few years ago and it sat since then. The battery has a 2020 date on it so it hasn't been sitting horribly long. He had a 1054, a 1075 and an 854 sitting there as well as a tub cart, but he didn't want to part with any of that lol I told him I didn't blame him.

    I rode a tour in rural Viginia years ago which passed many dogs--some leashed, some trained to stay on their owners’ property, and a few just loose. Having had experience with the dog-bike interaction, I would pull out my water bottle at the first bark. One huge German shepherd gave me a scare getting quite close at full run and barking. My full quirt right in its face so shocked it that it stumbled and went down in a ball of fur and flying legs. I didn’t look back.

    I'm jealous that you have such convenient access to the KATY. The appropriate rider’s etiquette is to call out “On your left” from well behind and/or (as I do) to use a bell to announce one’s presence. Cyclist are mostly oblivious to this, sadly, having not had any instruction. Sometimes BOTH voice and bell are needed as I daily encounter two- or three-abreast walkers totally engrossed in their conversation or their phone who then loudly voice naughty words at being passed. Other hazards are the pet walkers using leashes much longer than the trail-rules-mandated six feet and the frequently un-helmeted kids on all manner of wheeled things being given no guidance on safe behavior.

    Looks like it was well cared for. Having been sitting for years all the oil has drained to the sumo as @Darb1964 said above.

    There are some odd things in the (presumed) quote. Calories that are invisible to or not registered by the brain…What does that mean? Also, hydrogenated fats are not “known as trans fats.” Some hydrogenated fats are trans. Some are cis. Some are fully hydrogenated so can’t be cis nor trans…all squares are rectangles but not all rectangles are squares. It’s true that trans hydrogenated fats are not healthy, but it’s not going to be very common to find them in significant amounts in margarine these days since they are no longer permitted. And there are naturally occurring trans fats, although not dietarily common. Lots of artery cloggers out there, but margarine’s not the prime suspect some may suggest. It’s also not particularly delicious, but that’s a different issue. Steve

    Growing up on a dairy farm we made our own butter. While visiting one of my dad's nephews I happened to be in the kitchen while his wife was blending the dye into the margarine. Never having seen margarine I told my mother they were serving colored lard instead of butter, she corrected me promptly bur everyone kept an eye on me to see if I would eat any of it. I DIDN'T.

    Decided to take on a little yard work today and bust out both machines. Taking my yard back one gaffucci garden at a time. Then decided to finally make a front hitch using an idea I saw on here of using an old mule drive. What a world of difference.

    There is a technical basis for the “slow push” that’s kinda interesting to me--but just skip this post if you aren’t interested! In order to “soften” the transition from standing still to moving, Eaton incorporated what it called acceleration valves. These let some of the fluid from the hydro pump go around the hydro motor while the motor was coming up to speed (I,e, accelerating). So instead of a sudden, jerky start, it’s possible to“ease into” forward or reverse motion. The valves close once the differential pressure between the pump-motor link and the reservoir reaches a preset level so that no power is wasted after the tractor gets moving. Why this explanation? Pushing the tractor causes the hydro motor to become a hydro pump and it is the acceleration valves that let fluid being pumped bypass the normal pump which, with the engine off, blocks any flow through it. Pushing too fast causes the valves to close just as they would if the tractor was being driven by the usual mechanism. Lastly, some have noticed (disconcertingly) that an Eaton 1100 tractor will pick up speed on its own when creeping downhill--the hydro will not hold the tractor back like a geared tractor until the acceleration valves close.

    My self I have to drive a little over an hour. I can Handel that. It is really worth it because no degrading of fuel lines. That’s the problem with regular fuel. it just eats away the fuel lines causing all kinds of problems.

    If it's been sitting for a long time the fluid will settle and they will push much easier.

    Soaked it with Sea Foam Deep Creep a week before trying. Roll pin drove out easily. Turned the wheel all the way to the left, gave an extra nudge and it spun on the shaft. Spun it a few times on the shaft & it pulled right off. Easy peasy.
