    Gloat, new most expensive tool

    Got a new tool today and and it beats my old "most expensive tool" by a wide margin.



    Off to go play now.

    Too pretty and shiny for you to get a scratch in it. Send it my way and I can break it in for you...

      Ok, ok, so that a shiny one. And that's all nice and fine. But what are you going to use it for? Are you digging a storm cell under your house now?

        Oooooh! Very cool. I always wanted to try out one like that after I saw those little Bobcats on construction sites. Have fun!

          That's really cool. I take it as an extreme way to maintain shop maintenance.

              This is to serve a few purposes.
              • Mowing three acre yard
              • Grading 1/4 mile gravel driveway
              • Snow Removal, but only the cleanup stuff, we have the main drive done for us.
              • Perpetual landscaping
              • Toy


              The worst part is really the driveway. When we get big rainstorms, the aftermath involves a weekend of shoveling gravel back into the ruts. My oldest is leaving for college and the other two are only two years behind her so there is no way LOML and I are doing that alone!

                You must be creating considerable sawdust for a dust-pan of that size. I'm sure the bucket will be helpful to move project stock from the vehicle to the shop as well.

                      Now is the time to build a shelter for it! Don't do what I did and leave it outside for the winter. Winter will crack the seat, make for hard starting and not make you happy. Build the storage and be happy you did.

                      A great addition to the MAN TOYS!

                          Oooohhh.... Nice! Beats the 40" blade on my lawn tractor. Our neighbor has one too. Not cheap though.
