  • I picked up all 3 of these sight unseen for a good price. Now the big question is if they were worth it. Today we go after the best of the bunch, and we will do the other 2 in the next video.

      You are doing it the smart way. I had little invested but it's winter so they have to sell cheap at the end. There are 2 more and they will be the profit. 🙂

    Nice one Bill, I noticed that you didn't purposely put the vent tube on the backing plate so I "assume" it just went on when you attached the air box. Hope all is well with you and that your house hunting is going well. Cheers.

    It must be less than 200 degrees for you to have a shirt with sleeves on. It might get 50 today here and has been such for the last while after the storm of the century passed and left a great 1 1/2 inches of snow that is leaving slowly but will be good for my mowing endevors come spring. Keep moving so you won't freeze solid and build a fire if you need too. And those are good mowers.

      We got quite a bit of snow last week. It wasn't Michigan level snow, but it was a lot for us. At the moment it's 26 out, that's crazy cold for Dallas. 🙂
