On the ST80 & ST100 trimmers. Homelite ran the ignition kill circuit through the throttle cable core and the handle/fuel tank.. ...and that little brace at the rear of the powerhead. People were bad to put a foot on the back of the unit when cranking them. That tended to break the brace and...

The floor has a good texture for the crayons. But even better is that it don't slide back and forth the way the coloring book does!

Aside from crashing into stuff, what's the expected lifespan of one of the flying sprayers? How well are the electronics protected from the chemicals it will be carrying? Motor shafts, bearings, screws....

Lots of "flakes" around it and more wear in a center area. Piece between the bolt and the block looks to be more of a thickness gauge/stop for whatever is pressing the work piece. Note the smooth pressed looking scale or such, on top of the block, favoring the work side. The weld (only on top...

Not much corner wear noticeable to it, looks more like simple loss to rust. The tang/tab isn't broken off, is a bit noteworthy. The pattern halves were pretty well miss-aligned. Did this chunk serve its purpose or get tossed aside for remelt and just somehow escaped the 2nd trip through the...

The outer tine sets are on the wrong sides. You may want to check the recoil assembly before putting money in elsewhere. As for the recoil rope, I'd strongly recommend taking the starter clutch off and. cleaning the hole in the middle of it. You'll also need to clean the crank stub too...

Can get to be a real hoot, trying to deal with a defunct email acct. Especially when the mail provider or vendors will only send any confirmation codes to that now defunct address.

If I'm assembling a carb etc, yeah quiet time. Been known to cut off the fan even. Filing a chain, changing mower oil. lubing control cables, Tunes are fine for me then. Mucking about in the kitchen? Oh yeah gimme something to get lost in.

If it aint the aforementioned nose hair trimmer, how bout a reel mower for Bonsai gardens? Looks like a seal on the end. What about the tapered end? Any hole or slot. Any thing that looks like a fluid channel? Magnetic anywhere? Inner piece just slip fit onto housing, or any bearings, Any...

Many years ago, I'd waited for an album to be restocked at the Musicland store. Seems it was a one shot pressing though. The young lady who'd come to reckognize me, suggested another thing that she figured I might like. She cued up the first Black Oak Arkansas album for me.

Make sure the ring locating pins are accounted for also.

Between robotics and some self balancing stuff, electric bikes... You'd think a mutli phase motor controller could had that would cover the 3 phase stuff that we used to pass over. I guess the trick is finding the best pulse/wave form output to get a smooth motor at lower speeds that sewing...
