Oh, I get stuff at Harbor Freight. And at yard sales. Most of the time, you get what you pay for, and that is particularly true with certain tools and machines.
Whatever gets the work done for you, Doug.

On Fri, 11 May 2012 15:54:23 -0400, MARK O'MARA store. It's all junk, in my experience.
I have to disagree. I was given a Homelite chain saw. I used it to cut up a couple of branches and it worked OK one time. After that, I used it to hold down the lid on the trash can in the shop. Since doing that, the lid has never blown off.
Sure spend big bucks for a Stihl if you want, but that Homelite holds the lid down as good as any of the more costly brands.
Want to cut wood? Yeah, I have a Stihl for that.

but using it as a planter doesn't really count as being a viable machine in it's old age.

Wow, how many times have you replaced the flywheel key? (of course, it doesn't take long after the first time you've done it...)

That is our "lawn", and the boss herself uses our push-mower to mow that. It looks something like this:

If the thing is tight to begin with, and you don't hit any solid objects, there's no reason to shear that key.

Twice. Realizing that the most time-consuming part of replacing that key was the trip to a mower shop to buy one, I bought three keys the second time it happened. Five years ago. And I haven't had to replace one since.

There is a certain divine providence, in having spare parts on hand. One is less likely to need them.

Very much like packing heat. The great majority never even need to draw. (And that includes the police).

Very much like having and "emergency fund" or a couple of hundred $$ in your wallet.
