It should have worked........really

Try a mower and electric fence wire.

Take corners in low gear when the front of the tracor is light with a bale on the back.
The joy is in the journey.

When installing the shingle type ventilated ridge cap on a house, it's getting dark, and you see a little jog to the line and you can't find your utility knife....  Had to back track a few ridge cap shingles.  Roofing nailer put a nail right through the shingle and the Stanley 99 utility knife.  Still have the knife complete with nail hole and it still works.  Don't ask how I know this...

I've heard that when your riding your bike in the cow pasture, never ride in the lane right next to the electric fence. You could be unfortunate enough to hit a rock and fall onto the fence. It takes an unbelievably long time to untangle yourself from the fence (and your bike, which in itself is a very good conductor of electricity) with the electric current pulsing through your body. Your friends riding with you have no appreciation for the intense pain you're feeling, and will not lift a hand to help for fear of getting a shock, but will laugh as you're trying to kick your way clear of the fence and the bike.

Don't try to use butane spayed on a log in a wood stove to have the fire start quicker. Burned off some facial hair and nose hair. Also when using a multimeter to check 220 volts don't accidentally touch the lead. Don't feel good.

Had a friend of mine loading some stuff into a barn with the loader up. His foot slipped off the clutch and drove right through the wall.

Never park a 60 Oliver pointed directly at a newly filled fuel barrel that you have to choke with your hand over carb to start and leave it in gear. Starts on first turn and climbs barrel stand knocking barrel off stand.  Took 4 of us to roll barrel so filler was at top, lost about 50 gal. Dad was glad I wasn't hurt but it was a bummer to dig a hole and use 5 gas cans to fuel tractors all summer. Barrel still has the dent in top and hasn't had fuel in it for 25 years.

Never try to lead a yearling holstein heifer home from the neighbours on your bicycle.
Heifer went  on one side of our mailbox post and our neighbour on bike went on the other- speed WAS a factor in this incident! Dad and I could also have written a book on this guys
escapades!

55 gallon drums cut in half will catch air and fly off of the truck when you clear a hill and get an unexpected head wind. At least the state trooper was tailgating and didn't notice them going over the cruiser.

10 year old with tools working on bicycle in the yard is a no no. He never puts the tools away and when you mow, 1/2 inch wrenches fly fast and take out siding.

A brand new installed $100 electric clutch on a mower will spin and pull the wires out rendering it usable for a trot line weight at best if you don't tighten the bolt on the bottom of the shaft.
