    A little Machinist advice please

    I could be mistaken but if shaft,bore and key fit snug you might be able to salvage and reuse the whole assembly without need for parts or precision machining. It looks like keyed sleeve has a disc attached and relies on friction from being trapped between 2 piece pully that was spot welded...

    Maybe so,maybe not, all depending on what you are calling "indicator" , your level of expertise and what result you expect.

    Mower valve lapping

    No offense intended, but terminology used in your post makes me believe you are misunderstanding what the manual said.

    Spring AC Maint

    Good for you. That's worth an atter-boy but unfortunately ignoring it for 8 years has earned you a few ahh-chitts. Now that you are on a roll, does indoor filter perfectly fit holder? That's V-E-R-Y important so if it doesn't we can talk about a remedy. Do you and have you always used...

    Heater blower stopped working

    :ROFLMAO::giggle::unsure:😂 I had the same problem with them algebra and trigonometry books back in school, they weren't very clear either. 😁 As for harness chopping, my service manual doesn't even mention the subject, much less offer guidance. :unsure:

    Orange tractor related but NOT Kubota

    What a fine heirloom. Inheriting the WD-45 would be great if one was into collecting tractors but would be like finding a dead elephant in the garage for a great-grandson with no interest in tractors . This little pin can be cherished by descendants even if they know nothing about tractors.

    Does anyone make covers for attachments like grapples, rear blades, 4 n 1 buckets?

    Any metal building contractor can build little individual sheds similar to those for raising bottle caves or fighting gamecocks. Have your local sign shop paint signs and mount to buildings saying what is stored inside. That way you'll have best of both worlds.

    If you have control of people you don't just control their money, you control what they think and do which is far more important.

    Fuel shut off cable

    The solenoid doesn't know whether it is being moved by a cable or a finger, move it with your finger and expect identical results if a cable is used.

    News reporters and mainstream media aren't a bunch of idiots, they are a well oiled machine geared to control society. Look into the practice of gaslighting as explained by psychologists and what is being discussed here begins making sense.

    News Media

    I can confirm that from firsthand experience. Fortunately my agent was always in my corner when there was a question on a claim and very diligent in seeing that I got discounts I am intitled to. Over the years I realized my agent was helpful but not until my agent's office manager...

    Steel T-Posts

    "Finding" things in tall grass is the main reason mowing other people's property isn't profitable. A friend of mine found a natural gas pipe on a vacant lot and gas company not only charged him for the repair, that calculated cu ft of gas lost and tacked that on to the bill.

    News media is so accustomed to lying it just comes naturally to them.
