I've got one of the last Wheelhorse tractors before Toro dropped the old
line of stuff, a 4-818 I think. I'm being offered a plow for it, but I'm
told to make an offer. Any of you lawn tractor guys know what this stuff
goes for used? Any info would help.

Give a man a match, and he is warm for a short while. Light him on fire, and
he is warm for the rest of his life.

Max, don't know about the Wheelhorse blade but a 54" blade for a atv can be
bought new for under $200.  That is probably more blade than you need, so
offer accordingly.

Around here used lawn tractor blades go for $25-$50 depending on the
fabrication needed to make them fit what you want to put it on.

Thanks for the info. This blade is for the tractor I have, and has wheel
weights to go with it. I already have the rear axle mounts. I figure on
using it to clear the sidewalk, basically as a time saver.

I'm willing to bet ya that when it's all said and done, you could have
shoveled it in the same time. You gotta count the time getting the thing to
start and dicking around with it as shovel time..<BG>

Denny
Max Dodge - 09 Nov 2005 01:49 GMT
Took the time factor into consideration, and figured that unless it really
hates starting in the cold, I'll save time. If nothing else, I'll be more
motivated. I'd also thought about the ability of my car to get out of the
same spot I park the truck, and I know it can't unless I shovel. Due to fuel
prices and a number of other factors, I figure I can also plow a path for
the car, saving wear on the truck.

Probably 10 years ago I bought a snowblower to do my front and rear porches
and sidewalk. After using it about 3-4 times I just get the scoop shovel off
the nail and use it. I think I gave the blower away a couple of years ago to
make more room in the shed. That blower was about the biggest waste of money
I ever spent.

Denny
Max Dodge - 09 Nov 2005 03:31 GMT
Well this way, instead of buying a plow for the truck, I get a plow that
fits my driveway and mows the lawn.

Well, well, our furry friend is off to Detroit for a few days. I wonder why,
although he claims he'll be "so much smarter" when he get's back.
How to spin this...... Figure to get smarter, ole fur face had to have been
smart in the first place. So, we know that ain't going to happen.
Heard from a reliable source that there are a number of things going on in
the motor city that he may have waddled into. One is a advanced egg painting
course for rabbits, in preparation for Easter, he isn't advanced enough for
that.
Also there is a gay rabbit convention going on. Do ya think our furry assed
buddy has gone over to the other side of the street? I know he frequents his
local Home Depot store all the time. It is understood that he has been
tossed out repeatedly.
Anybody else have any thoughts on this?
<GBFG>

I told ya, there was an article in a sorta underground newspaper. It told of
how gay folk would get dressed up in work clothes and tool belts and cruise
the aisle's. Take a look at their hands, do they look like they work with
them? Looks like the village people. It went on to say that many of the
employees were gay as well. Not that the rabbit always buy's stuff from the
bottom shelf.

Just be careful what is checking you out.

Which really makes me wonder why you read about gays, where they hang-out
and how they dress in underground newspapers. Is there something you need to
tell us???

PS.  How's your home improvement projects coming???

Sue is a real decent shot. Do you think there is any need for a ported 686?
Think I will get her one for christmas.

I wouldn't go for the porting unless you get into competative shooting and
then it probably wouldn't be legal for the lower skilled classes. Get her
the 4 inch barrel 357 and a thousand rounds of 38 special and let her have
fun.. Remember a holster and a few speed loaders too. Safety glasses and ear
muffs too

5" is good. I thought she was going for a concealed carry and a 5" would be
a little big for that.

No, no, she has a S&W 60 21/2' for that. Of course with the pocketbooks
women carry she could conceal a rpg in it. She wants something that she can
play with at the range. Likes target shooting, likes a revolver. Likes the
bushmaster but.... I told here i'd share. She got into this a few years ago
with some teachers she works with. Some deal called Women on Target.

We have the WoT once a month here too. Just an excuse for a bunch of women
to get together to plink and cackle like a bunch of old hens. Be sure Sue
reads that too.  <VBG> If she wants to make an impression with her friends,
get her a S&W model 500. It goes boom real nice.

Ahh, clean, efficient, reusable, oil soaked cloth filters, the next best
thing to sliced white bread.
