Allis put on her gardening outfit today so I put her to work.
Money can't buy you happiness.
It can however buy you a beer.
And that is close enough.

I like the counterbalance however I was just thinking, does the tiller want to climb out of the ground with all that down pressure removed?

Painting suggestions. Getting ready to paint my B 210 and would like some advice. Is it worth using a PPG or DuPont high price stuff or stick with ready made paint. Have looked all over for the rustoleum old cat yellow and cant find it. I think they quit making it because of the VOC I think. Josh! Did you try that Van Sickle paint? Has anyone used this paint called Majik. Plan to have all parts sandblasted. What primer would be best. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

I use PPG when I can afford. LOTS longer lasting color & sheen.

Not from my experience. My first tiller tractor was a hand lift.

Very nice Dave!

Mike, yes, I've now used the VanSickle paint and I LOVE it! =] Great folks too...matched my OEM color and now sell the Wards Squire bronze as a TISCO part number.

I used PPG MAE with their epoxy primer and loved it.
