MY MOTHER TOLD ME , THAT WHEN SHE WAS A KID , THAT THEY DIDN'T ALLOW GRASS TO GROW IN THE YARD , THE WHOLE YARD WAS DIRT , IF THEY SEEN A BLAD OF GRASS START TO GROW , THEY WOULD STOP AND GOOSE PICK IT , OR TAKE A HOE TO IT , AND THEY WOULD KEEP THE YARD CLEAN , BY SWEEPING IT WITH HOME MADE STRAW BROOMS .

BACK WHEN I WAS A KID THERE WAS NO SUCH THING AS A WEED EATER , YOU HAD TO USE A SWING BLAD , OR GOOSE PICK GRASS CLOSE TO ITEMS IN THE YARD.

MY BROTHER'S & COUSIN'S AND I MOWED 3 Is ACRES WITH 2 OF THEM, KEEP THEM SHARP & OILED

LeBlanc checking in for Canada!!!

Love it! I got my 3 year old doing the same, except he is at the age where he thinks it’s cool so it’s easy lol

Too cold for me man!

Love it dude!!! My son and I are your newest subscribers, he loves mowing the grass too and he’s fascinated with this mower!!!

Me and the old man was just discussing the blade design on these things. In the right hands they could cut better than a modern lawnmower. People were masters of their craft back when things were mostly handmade. Sometimes a step forward in tooling, causes a stumble backwards in engineering. I know from being self taught in gun science that building prototype machines (that work properly) can prove to be very difficult despite being a simple design. I encourage people to disregard expectations and try making things by hand with limited resources. If not to gain a new skill, at least to gain appreciation for the skill of others

Bro when I was like 10 I used one of those to. Good times😊

That one train conductor yet Amish looking guy pulls out a scythe and does your chores for you out of pent of aggression towards you

Just found out about your channel! I do property maintenance in PTBO as well. I sharpen the same way except I have a block and tackle that I use to lift up the mowers

Thanks for sharing your experience. That is great your dealer went to bat for you and Toro covered the parts to repair your snow blower. The Toro HD models are great machines. One thing most everyone does with these machines, is make a slight adjustment to slow first gear to a crawl. Also, many complain that the left lever tension spring is too strong. That is also an easy fix. You can either slip the spring off the handle or do like I did, remove the spring all together. The bottom spring is all that is needed to hold the handle in the up position. By doing this, the tension is cut in half. Many complain their left hand would become fatigued after a while. I know mine did until I made the modification. I have the HD 1232 which can really blow some snow. Hope your winter is a good one.

Nice setup. I only have 2 walk behinds at the moment.

All the flower beds are full.. You look like you are all over the place with that mower. Not productive with it..

The ground was too soft to be mowing at that speed… You can see where you tore the grass up spinning on the damp grass on the left side of the house… Also the uneven, zigzag pattern is not real professional looking…

Even when doing leaf cleanups with our zero turns we still have a pattern, that zig zag all over the entire lawn and missing a lot of it didn’t make much sense to me. Also blow out the flower beds first, I guess whatever makes the customers happy but I personally couldn’t do it this way

You got 18,000 dollars to give me so I can get one of these? Get realistic.

Now thats a beautiful fence. Cedar??

I just grab a couple beers, a lawn chair, leave blower and the weed torch. Within a few hours, 5 acres of leaves are gone. But your way works too.

You Need to fix your sound it is terrible

I'm wondering what height you set your blades for mulching leaves? I enjoyed the video.

I pick up all my leaves with a pull behind vacume and scag zero turn. I could not imagine just using a mulching blade and let the small pieces just lay there. A few leaves are ok for your lawn, but too many and you start to suffocate the existing grass plus all the mulched leaves will cause spots where nothing grows because of too many mulched leaves. But it is what it is.

You should make it easier on yourself and blow all the bed free of the leaves. And cut the leaves in one direction to get rid of them the cut again to strip

You never show the whole machine! Or how you are vacuuming up the leaves. This video is worthless.

gator blades do the same thing and I have them on both my cub cadets 42 inch 46 inch with lots of trees on my over 3 acres

Keep up the good work.

god bless you .

Making twisting ruts when you turn in the grass. Be careful with that

Rhett

Yes sir💪🏽

Well there goes dead grass where the tires went over frosted grass ….

Nice video Looks like a lot Of Leave to cut up

Hi u can't use that Logo I have the same logo n I paid for it it on my trailer n shirts and business cards.

Hey Craig, great video! If you were to do a full leaf clean up there, would you blow all the leaves onto the lawn and then simply bag them with the mower? Do you drive slower when bagging? I Just bought a property, LOTS OF TREES, curious about the best way to clean up. Thanks for your thoughts. Dan

When I started out cutting grass I used one of those. When we upgraded we bought the same thing but it was motorized. Good times.

Thank God for self propel for some help Craig 💪

What a sloppy way of cleaning up leaves. A true professional hauls the debris away. I would have fired you in 10 minutes.

A lawn this size is perfect for laying down stripes. That you spent time zigging and zagging all over it to get the leaves is one thing, but I don't see much in the way of laying down stripes. Or, is it because it's the last cut of the season that no one really cares because it's all going to be covered in snow before long?

We had one of those mowers. My father kept it sharpened and mom loved to use it. No fumes... I have a current version of that and it's only slightly slower than a regular mower.

Working hard even with a broken wrist 💪💪💪

At least oil the damn thing, sounds rusty as hell.

Spray your mower deck with fluid film or something equivalent so the clipping won't stick.

Doing a good job buddy keep up the good work that's the way they used to do it all the time without power mowers just make sure your blade is sharp

Nice job Craig.

Wow that is pretty tall for sure.

Oh yea you sure did made it spit out on the trailer 😂
