I found out a BX bucket makes a pretty handy sawhorse for cutting some rough 2x6s. The space between the level indicator and the chain hook is just a bit bigger than a 2x6. Works great! (y)

Chuck Norris enjoyed the jokes about him. He can be seen bantering about them in a number of interviews that I have seen, and even agreed to be included in a movie, solely for the purpose of injecting a Chuck Norris joke. So it seems to me, as long as they are in good taste, now is the time...

While I"m sad to see a good man gone, there is a bit of a silver lining in this. We'll all be safer, especially people who live in California. Since Chuck won't be doing pushups anymore, there should be a lot fewer earthquakes. :D

What are your RPMs?

There it is. As long as the manufacturers are not colluding to fix the price, as long as the market is truly free and honest for ALL participants (supply chain side and consumer side), this is how it's supposed to work. They make something that has some value to the consumer. The...

I have had it on the highway from time to time, but not for a while. Those tires are from 2011. I'd say they have delivered a reasonable amount of usage! :D

The Shenandoah, iced over a few weeks ago during our cold spell. I have been living here for over 20 years, and I have NEVER seen so much ice on this river!

Handy! Sure made this job a lot easier! Dry rotted tire needed to be replaced. The carryall even provided a spot to rest the new tire.

Thank you! (y)(y) (He really did fire 6 shots. Watch what he does with the hammer. :D )

Yes, I'll experiment and report back. I'll probably get to it Saturday.

Then I'm guessing it's #3, the "Seat Turn Over" switch, rather than #2, the "Seat" switch. It would be nice if the wiring diagram would give a clue!

Yeah, I need to pick one of those up one of these days.... (y)

That yellow safety zip tie makes it all okay and just fine! (y)(y) :ROFLMAO: But you didn't answer my question! Which one is which??? :unsure::LOL: BTW, it's pretty easy to make a jumper for those beasts. About 3" of 18-16 gauge wire (length not critical*) and a couple of .250 male quick...

Saturday I was using my BX25D, and the tach was lying to me. It was reading WAAAY low. But things were working normally otherwise. Then it suddenly decided to start running poorly, like fuel starvation. I thought that was a bit strange because I had put a new fuel filter on a week ago, and...

Fun fact: When I was in the Army I lived off post for a while. Nice older couple. He told of being a young mechanic, and they had a customer who was a royal pain in the patootie. I'd guess this would have been back in the 40s or so. So they dropped a large ball bearing into a section of...
