I worked an 11 hour day today working on chopper boxes and fixing barbed wire fencing over a creek.
I need opinions, someone from Craigslist wants to straight trade a new in box Husqvarna 235 chainsaw for my clapped out MTD riding lawn mower that does run and drive and brake with deck detached, I wanted to pulley swap it.

Got 2 more saws yesterday! First is the Craftsman version of my Echo Kioritz 302 and John Deere 30 chainsaws. It’s missing many parts, but I won it for only $18 shipped on an eBay auction! I just need the gas cap and the ignition coil which I hope is good. Rest of its parts will be available for sale or trade. Second is a Homelite Super XL Automatic which I snagged at the landfill, shockingly, it runs as it should! I need an air filter cover, air filter cover mounting stud peice, and a bar oil cap for it, if anyone has any of those parts please let me know. IMG_9613.jpeg

All 3 parts are $30 shipped on eBay in total. A parts saw is a great idea if I can find one.

We had a yard sale today and yesterday, yesterday I made $55, today I only made $6. Had it at our ex-neighbors place so it was fun seeing them and inbetween we had some fun fixing one of my mowers and ripping the dirt bike. I a bought a nice Echo Kioritz 302 from a yard sale, I have 2 of them already but it was only $10 and mine need work. Seller said it ran good when put away a few yrs ago because he put gas in bar oil tank and wrecked oiler…IMG_9657.jpeg

If you were picking up Craftsman mowers there is a guy on AS from Montana that would be all over buying them.
I have a craftsman lawn tractor, I'm either going to pulley swap it or resell it after I get it going. I also have a craftsman push mower that I'm parting out. Otherwise I don't get in too much craftsman stuff.

Good evening folks. Went to work after school again today, just got back home. Might go buy a Polaris ATV project this week for a good deal. I made lots of Facebook marketplace sales in between school and work.
Good job but I would never buy a Polaris with 4 wheels, 3 yes, not 4.

I don’t care for Polaris either, but they seem ok-good from my experience and this one sounds like a good deal.
Polaris never made a good wheeler.
Buy Honda and never look back.........you will see a Polaris sitting dead in your dust and hit an Oak tree cause you were laughing soo much.

I love Honda products. I tried convincing my grandpa to sell me his foreman 350 that’s been sitting 10 years but he won’t budge. This Polaris is just too good of a deal tho. I might sell it after fixing it and put the money towards and Honda.
