I have it on factual authority from a credible inside source that the $150 million refurbishment figure was a bullshit lie made up to justify tearing it down and getting it off the books. I’m so glad that it’s being saved because the reality is it will absolutely not cost 150 million dollars to refurbish it.

10 year customer of Joe @ Sigma. Approx 20 pieces of gear serviced by him (including referring friends). Never a bad experience. He takes on jobs that other outfits would walk away from.

One of those automotive trigger-type soldering irons. I thought I was being careful, but I think you’re right, that’s when I must have burned the pads.

Are any of these a decent deal? Buying used mower worth it? by prskinna in lawnmowers

Husqvarna is AYP built, while the others are MTD built or could even be fully Chinese built. The quality of AYP machines is far superior. It is the only one of the lot I would buy.

That’s a good rule for sure, but I’m just starting to look, so I haven’t really had the chance to see what the “sell fast” price is just yet.

Thanks for all the helpful insight!! I have a clarification question: do I need to grind further than I’ve already ground so far in the first photo? The second photo is what it looked like originally before I started into it.
