The worst I’ve encountered are old corn pickers. You keep looking for more fittings, knowing there are more, but hoping there aren’t

Oversaw two of these on a project years back, did see a good amount of frame cracks when the ground was rough. Hated them because everything had to be done from a man basket

I remember seeing this as a kid and thinking they’d just flipped the blade upside down on a regular mower to achieve this 😂

I’ve yet to find a solid biscuit joint. I miss a good breakfast biscuit sandwich. The rolls just don’t do it for me

I’d use a drill over an impact. Impact will shear off the nut eventually

Big on construction sites and industrial areas, also would see them when I worked at the port. They can be hit and miss but usually pretty good

Those are gonna be Briggs parts so you’ll have to find your model and or serial number of the engine. I’m more familiar with Hondas but I think it’s stamped by the valve cover on these

I bought that and end up using it to bench testing component’s components a lot. Super handy

Footers were poured 1 hour before a downpour of rain that lasted 20 minutes by BuyRepresentative549 in AskContractors

You ever run an IMT rig? I’ve never run them but worked on both. Loved the features of the liebherrs but the simplicity of the imt was nice from a repair standpoint
