LMAO!
Back Story:
The city road by our shop was torn up, and redone last summer. So the city in all of its infinite wisdom "sprayed" the ground surrounding the new
road (using like a big-a$$ sand blaster) with wheat straw, in an attempt to keep erosion and mud under control... thats my best guess anyway...
So far this year... the wheat has grown
Well, the CITY CODE ENFORCER came into work, flashed some papers to me, and informed me that "the city transportation dept. has complained about your
parkway...its time to harvest your wheat!" AHAHAHAHHA
My response of course was... "the transportation dept planted it, we didnt want it... tell them to mow it"
He pointed to his uniform and walked out!
so i go kick on what i have come to know as FRANKEN-MOWER... its my grandmothers old mower i used when i was 8... it has become the shop mower... it
leaks, it has a 2" exhaust pipe, a cool little intake I may put a faux forced
air induction system on it lol
it
is
LOUD!
& it smokes pretty bad, and it is pretty much the most obnoxious piece of machinery out there...
so i chopped my wheat, the mower just throws its catch, shredded into the air... made a huge mess, pissed off a few city officials, my day is off to a great start... my only regret, was that i was going to make beer
out of the wheat...lame
FRANKENMOWER LIVES!!!!!

:o
Hook it up with some real forced air induction....
Maybe some fuzzy dice and some mudflaps
It's important to keep your mower happy.

I was going to rig up a small squirrel cage fan to the drive shaft... Supercharger...

That's an awesome machine! You get lots of points for style. Sheep would have been much more stealthly.
