Re: Anybody have experience with old Gensets?

I think they are worth putting a bit of time into. They are not as popular now as they once were for running power tools with the influx of battery operated tools.

Re: I got hurt. (Sorry if this is a little graphic)

My thoughts are also the ignition switch or that all of the wires leading to the switch might be bundled or wrapped together for neatness. If wrapped together and wire in...

Re: Did the 446 just dodge a bullet?

If it doesn't happen again , or get worse, we may never know what caused the 446 seize up. 25 years ago we had a Toro/Honda snowblower.

While moving a rock pile the 446 was left idling. Much to my chagrin, after several minutes of idling, the mot...

How Kelly and Merri met

In early March a :446cart: Case trailer showed up on FB marketplace that was overpriced. It was an 1-1/2 away from me but a buddy's sister lived 15 minutes from the seller.

Re: Old Time Shop Projects - Popular Mechanics/Popular Science

I remember well the days of going to the mailbox and waiting intently for the Popular Mechanics issue to arrive. We dreamed of making a pontoon boat like in the PM magazine. It was powered by an R Moline tractor. The tractors rear wheels were reworked as paddle wheels and the tricycle front end beca...

Gave it a bit of a knudge to slide it down then drove out from under. I love it when a good plan comes together
