Cool. Did you get the vapor issue sorted out on the Deere? It does look good in there!

Yes I did, I found the crank case breather and tapped it off! Next day all was good!

I recently re-finished these old Datsun 240Z wheels...pleased with the end result.

Agree lots of points to contact.
We talked briefly about 3d scans but this company prefers this method.
yeah the Faro operator said something about using when using a 3d scanner you need to dust the car with powder?
I would prefer not to have my car dusted with powder inside and out.

Very nice resto^^^^^

Cool! I like seeing things like this mower restored. I have a 1957 Sears bullet nose garden tractor that I hope to around to restoring before I die.

Looks like a 5 dollar mower turned into a 100 dollar mower that no self respecting gardener would ever use....%^)

Unless it was in city that banned powered mowers and/or leaf blowers. Just an observation....

Why would you say that? If you have a small flat lawn they are far superior to a standard mower.

Because I like to tweak Zeke's chain.
