Yep .... I NEED one of those soon. Summer is just around the corner and the grass is already starting to grow!

Want and Need are two different things Larry.

I don't Need one of these, but I WANT one of these.

It sure would make cutting the grass a heckuva lot funner.

I have been seeing this piece for years at Rough & Tumble.
It was great to see this restoration project come to life and completed in recent years.


Thanks for posting this, Nick!
