Is your grass that tall that you couldn't see the fisherman or didn't know you were driving into a lake?

Yup, I already found that link but other than to list model numbers there's not much information there.

Thanks though.

Click on the model numbers. They are links to the specs / info.....
I would take that info with a grain of salt though. It looks like they are all listed with single cylinder engines.

Thanks guys I still have some work to do on it, the winding part of the watch is worn pretty bad which makes it hard to wind so I need to replace some of the parts and a couple jewel bearings on the balance wheel then it should be ready for another hundred years of service.

The grass was so high I didn't even see the boat let alone the guy fishing.
Ed the catalogue shows it as 717-860-365 hope that helps. Had a little closer look and it is a CVT or belt drive transmission, but they did away with the usual forward reverse shifter and have it all on the pedal, works well for now anyway.

another batch of shingles, cut these from 10 big blocks that I cut from logs at the dump, got to love scrounged.

You find Cedar at the dump?
I don't think we even have dumps here. We have recycling centres where you pay to dump stuff and are not allowed to get stuff.
I'm thinking if it were a true recycling centre you'd be able to take stuff as well as bring it.

[f350ca]

I consider the dump as the local shopping mall. They have an electronics section, tire store, metal and hardware area and the cedar came from the organic section. But the best part is there return policy, no time limits and no recites required for a full refund.

They have a "No Shopping" rule at our landfill.
