Gregor 4,838 #3628 Posted February 1, 2022 We've had some snow melt the last few days, so I was able to get the 125 up to the garage. As soon as I am done with a couple of wood projects, I'll be able to start "Horsin'" around again. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
8ntruck 6,581 #3629 Posted February 3, 2022 We got about 7" of snow Tuesday night here in our Mo. location. Would have been handy to have my 14-8 and Mr 2 cycle Toro snowthrower here. Was out using a back saver snow shovel to dig out the driveway when a newspaper reporter stops by and interviews me about shoveling snow. Today, I am famous, with my picture appearing below the fold on the front page of the local paper. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZXT 2,394 #3630 Posted February 3, 2022 Got a couple of inches of ice/snow mix last night so the area is pretty much shut down.. Probably not enough to try to plow, but I wish I had one! Could at least entertain myself with it since work was cancelled. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Better check with Pete to find out what to spray it with before it falls apart. I'm testing some stuff a formulary I found on the internet. I've mixed up some of it about 8 months ago and tried it on several things so for it's doing good. I wire brushed a Ford blade to get all the green stuff off and sprayed it down. He clamed it would stop rust out side for two years I haven't got there yet so don't know for sure. I also sprayed down the rusty handles on the Eddleman Mower when I painted it last year. let it soak a week or so washed it down and painted it's didn't sand, still on there. It consist of 4 oz. PB Blaster 12 oz. Transmission Fluid and 1/2 oz. of Dawn. It's hard to see those little marks on thar paint mixing cup and got too muck dawn in the bach I s[rayed the blade with so I just brushed it out. Here are a couple of pictures. This is what It looked like before I wire brushed and s[rayed it. I guess I had better wire brush that JD tool bar and spray it. Here is a close up of the handel bar on the mower, I didn't sand it just washed and painted. . 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ifixoldjunk 778 #3645 Posted February 10, 2022 @Lee1977 Surprisingly the frame isn’t rusted at all. I think the issue stemmed from the bumper being recalled for rust in 08 and never being acted on. No pitting or flakes which is odd for a Toyota. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 9,977 #3646 Posted February 10, 2022 Been dog proofing the garden yesterday while we still have some garden left. Erected a fence between it and the yard. I did have some help from Nell, the pup. Rather large pup now. Driving the posts in was fun. When I swung the mallet, she'd jump up and try to grab it and push the post with her paws. The hole for the post by the house proved a bit of a problem. A piece of the original drive was still there under the soil. Four inch thick. That I attacked with a large chisel and lump hammer. After about an hour and a half and an aching wrist, I managed to get through concrete and the post in. Then fitted the last panels. Not bad for an afternoons work. I only collected the posts in the morning. Fitted the gate first thing this morning. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have noticed if I uploaded a picture directly from my I phone it was ok. If I edited it at all, it would rotate or flip it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
