  1. Mower died. Engine is rekt. Looks like you don't repair small engines these days since a crankshaft alone is *as much as* a full ready-to-run engine assembly

  6. And now the lawnmower works again and babytruck helped a bunch without using its battery at all!

  11. I lifted the mower up into the bed of babytruck and used a rope wrapped around the rollbar to tip the lawnmower up at an angle and then could just sit in a chair to see the damage.

    I made two new holes and used stainless steel rounded head carriage bolts. To get them to fit snugly I used a tapered square file to make new holes on the loose part square so the carriage bolts heads would fit in, lock, and take up as little space as possible on the inside.

  16. It’s absurd how useful both babytruck and the new garage are for fixing something like this.
    I thought I had killed the motor!

    The lawnmower motor hadn’t died , it turns out there is an inner circular piece of steel that is meant to go inside the main deck and just in front of the spinning blade. It had two very ineffective little rivets that came loose and the spinning blade was hitting the loose metal guard.

  21. My brother also gave me a portable temporary “garage” he wasn’t using anymore and he and my sister helped set it up.

    I had recently bought a used lawnmower and right after I started using it I was mowing what vaguely resembles lawn and hit something and the mower started making a horrible clacking/tapping noise.

    There is power in these spinning blades,
    green ninja of the grass.

    The grasshoppers and praying mantes flee and
    fly before the whirring wind. The hilly homes
    of Appalachian moundbuilding ants are cut down
    to jagged holes which spew forth red and black
    bodies in an angry burning sea.

    They do not realize that the hurricane
    which slings them and their children
    through the air today is predicted again
    for next week unless the grass somehow
    ceases to grow or the fuel line
    springs a leak.

  31. Sponsored by Toro's "Timecutter" division, Doctor Beckett finds himself mowing from yard to yard, fixing landscaping projects that once went wrong, and hoping each time, that the next lawn will be his own backyard.

  33. England: Lawn Mower Championships: ‘Proper British fun’.

    Dozens of speed demons are competing at the British Lawn Mower Championships in Chichester, southern England.

    These mowers have been modified and have had their blades removed for optimal speed. They can reach an impressive 55mph (88km/h) at top speed.

    While often seen as a fun motorsport, the racing is incredibly physical.

  34. Mein Gartenfriseur tarnt sich jetzt als Käfer.

    Und nein, der fährt nicht nachts und schreddert kleine Igel.
    Der darf hier nur bei Tageslicht dafür sorgen, dass ich noch besser ausseh.
