Lawn Mowers
A couple weeks back I noted that a friend had given me a riding lawn mower, but it needed some repair. Well, I got the verdict on it this week: DOA. The frame’s bent up a fair bit, and the repair shop didn’t feel good about telling me it was a good idea to fix the thing up.
So… we Economically Stimulated the local Lowe’s and picked up a new riding lawn mower. Total time to mow the lawn is now 1.5 hours, down from 4 hours it took with the tiny push mower. This is good.
In other news my Brother in Making Crazy Shit has a lawnmower with what’s probably got a decent 18hp engine in it for spare parts. I’m thinking remote controlled track driven snow plow right now. Leave suggestions in comments.

I’ve got several servos we could use to put a mechanized turret on the thing.
