    Making custom decals

    I'd kinda like to do an IH theme on this tractor. In the white area, I'd like to put a custom decal that reads "MURRAY OHIO [next line in smaller letters] MANUFACTUING CO." I want it in red, simmilar to what the tractor is, or best, in chrome/black outline. Any suggestions where such custom...

    What is your favorite brand of small engine, and why?

    Let's keep this to lawn and garden-type machines, single or two cylinder, two or four stroke. My favorite is 4 stroke B&S, and here's why: B&S, IMHO, are the longest-running, simplest, cheapest to fix, most abuseable engine on the market. Bar none. I have never had luck with tecumseh...

    Four-stroke

    I have a 4-stroke lawn boy that's just like the two-stroke one Twostroke has for an avatar. The deck is falling apart. The tecumseh smokes like crazy. (go figure) The blade was on UPSIDE DOWN, and the 'wings' were ground off But it mowed as well as my snapper (the best cut I have, by far.)...

    Snowplowing

    This spring, I gotta think about next winter: I can get my hands on a 55 gal plastic barrel (weight thought here), and am thinking about cutting it in half. I can fabricate a lightweight frame for it, too. My question is: Will a variable speed tractor (one with the sliding center pulley)...

    Single or multiple projects?

    Hiya. Just wondering - do those of you that mess with restorations tackle one project until it's done, or (like me) do you start multiple ones, and bounce from project to project as your boredom (and/or frustration) increases with the one you're working on? :wink:

    Vertical engine 70's Wheel Horse?

    Back in the 90's, when I used to mow my next door neighbor's yard, he had a lot of interesting stuff. A tiny Rupp mower, a '60's JD 110, an old 8hp Wheel Horse.....he was an auction hound. He also had a Wheel Horse simmilar to our '76 rear-discharge model. Same style hood and dash, but it was...

    From points to solid-state

    I wonder if anyone else here has run into this: My neighbor gave me an old bolens push mower, and it had a 3.5 briggs with an odd rope-pull starter. It was set up just like a modern electric start (with a toothed flywheel, and just a flat screen atop it, like elec. start), but the 'starter'...

    Hello, world!

    Greetings! Hope this site is what I've been looking for. Been to other places, but they don't quite fit me. I have always enjoyed the bulletin-board style forums (vs. newsgroups), and look forward to both helping out when I can, and also getting help when I need it! I own more mowers than I...
