Regular schedule maintenance for the mouse. No fire tonight. Temps are up. Spring is near. SGE is close.

Saw my first Robin yesterday.

Brother… I was down this hole a few years back… I became a Wheel Horse man after talking to a friend of mine who’s a big equipment farmer… I asked him, “what do you use for a garden tractor?” “Wheel Horse”… I’ve actually got one I need to sell.. Too many projects and trying to minimize…

It’s the morning.

Wife and I did some experimenting in the kitchen last night….

The fact you played this straight is making me wonder if I woke up in an alternative universe.

Well I didn’t want to give away all the details… we’ve still got a whole day to get through!

and an XL 3 egg omelette with mushrooms, red bell pepper, rotisserie chicken and shredded cheese. Affectionately known as "The Chicken Vendetta". And a cinnamon raisin bagel with cream cheese. Hope to work most of it off today.

Yeah, kinda like gun people but with little tractors lol.

I looked at a wheel horse down the road last weekend, just didnt seem like my cup of tea. I think if I’m gonna go down that rabbit hole it’ll be with super Cubs and Bolens lol. My first Bolens was a tank for a garden tractor and the super Cubs have a very similar drivetrain from my understanding.

I understand! Everyone has their favorites. I like the WH’s for their simplicity, no fluff, easy to access everything and their attachment system. When you want to get into garden tractor pulling, lemme know. I’d do it.

More than awake! FEELING ALIVE!!!! So much coffee…

@mcapo what M12 ratchets are you looking at? I meant to ask yesterday but got lost in tacos…

I am well past looking....more of a see/buy person than, well, some people.

I bought these with 3.0 batteries. They have some other head designs but I wanted the little higher torque of this model. In all honesty, I'll probably use them less in a year than you would in a day. A buddy asked me to put headers/exhaust on his vette so it seems like a good excuse to cut the cord (err air hose) of another tool.

• 2557-20: pneumatic ratchet performance with up to 55 ft./lbs. max torque and delivers 200 RPM for increased productivity
• 2558-20: pneumatic ratchet performance with up to 60 ft./lbs. max torque and delivers 175 RPM for increased productivity

Ive been down that rabbit hole before. My ex-stepdad growing up had a open class turbo diesel, and a super stock rail lookin “JD” with a VW engine. He got me an old “12hp” cub with the cast iron 3sp trans to pull when i was 10ish. When i got to old for the kids class i called it quits. That’s entirely to time consuming for me right now but an 82 series cub with a new EFI Briggs big block isnt out of the question in the future lol.

You can't ever have too many tools.

Awesome. Headers on a vette… don’t envy you. Good luck on that… Haha!!!

I’ve got a 2557-20 that I picked up earlier this year, love it. Use it everyday. I need to add some more bigger batteries, but the small slim ones fit in more places…

Age is a factor.
I am still on the 2 to 3 hour maint. Schedule for my sleep cycles. I have not had any real Rem sleep in almost a year.

I'd be a monster if I was in that situation. Sleep deprivation can really mess someone up.
