Really like it. Cuts grass great. Mower did not have any problem running two blades. I have family close to Ballard’s .So thought way not look them up. Great people. Great products.

      If you're running open trailers you typically are parking it in or under shelter where it can be secure when not in use. Any other time you should be using it for work and are near it. If you have to worry about theft then an enclosed trailer will deter most but the most determined. And that point it doesn't really matter what you have, bolt cutters and a grinder will get it.

    All excellent ideas and really nice products the only thing that I think it’s lacking is some type of security hardware. That would be much better over just regular carriage bolts and old lock nuts. Have something that would require a special tool to unscrew/bolt. Your going to all those lengths with the locks on each attachment that would just take it to the next level.

      @@namrednop All the carriage bolts are installed correctly. The shoulder of carriage bolts have a square register that interfaces with the square punches on the racks. They're made so your stuff can't be stolen while at a stop light, while your mowing a property, or while you run into the store. They're not made to be secure overnight. Nothing is. Even a box trailer can be broken into in a matter of seconds. There is no method of securing lawn equipment that is theft proof, especially in an open trailer, especially overnight. It does what it's supposed to do; deter theft.. Only an idiot would leave their equipment on the trailer for extended periods of time.

    Seriously though, the trimmers he showed are $500 each, the blower is $600, trimline $45/spool, the mower $8-10k and the trailer $2500+. A bundle package to secure these expensive items would be great for a newby. Lol, I do enjoy your videos and as always, Thank you for sharing.

      True. That’s why I torque everything down with an impact, keeps the passersby honest. That’s all this is really for; preventing a crime of opportunity. This way you can work out of sight of the trailer and a guy walking past won’t grab your tool and run off. But you gotta unload when you get home unless you have a garage to park in.

    I really like that tool box, but I’m not so sure about it being waterproof like the guy said. I saw no weather seals and the lid doesn’t even have a lip that overlaps the box. So how is it waterproof?

    Seems like everything is on wrong/street side, any particular reason? Seems like it would be safer if it was on curb/yard side if normally parking in the street. Guess it wouldn't matter if normally parking in a parking spot or driveway.
