We mow at dark

Recommended Posts

Pullstart

I took @WHX24 Jim’s tractor for a spin about 8:30 last night, figured the harvest moon was bright enough to mow for a bit.  How did farmers harvest before lights?  Yeah Jim, wiring is an issue as you figured... no light bulbs turned on :D

That will fit my mentality good  then, lights are on but nobody's home! :lol:

 

I love wiring issues.... 'bought the only thing I am good at!

 

Run her through some tall grass..... that's how it's gonna get used as little as I get up to the cabin to mow!

 I don't remember how we did it growing up. But nowadays they rely on GPS .  I guess you would use a full moon that would make sense! Or the harvest moon.

Dan and Jim will have to chime in on this one too...

As I recall, Jim had worked out a deal with Richard @953 nut on this roller.  Dick wanted a couple of parts from it but said the mafia could have the rest. We were lounging around the show when Jim came and got us and said, “It’s time!” Dan broke out the tools and had already started by the time I realized that I wanted to record this for posterity never guessing that it would be as big of a hit on Red Square as it has turned out to be.

Dan’s already got the fender pan clear and we didn’t have to worry about pulling the motor.

Notice that Achto has the every present glasses and low slung hat to make sure he doesn’t stand out while committing this “crime”!

 

In just under 10 minutes, Jim, Dan, and myself had the tractor to this point.

In 15 minutes it was loaded and headed back to the truck like this in the tub.  I love the expressions of the people in the background of these pics...

“If you don’t pay your dues, we may just have to do this again! Don’t make the Mafia come and visit you...”
