Good for you! You give me the inspiration to do the same thing with some of these hitches I got laying around wasting space! Think I'll get the torch fired up tonight!

Are you looking for a sickle mower for a B? I took one off of my B a number of years ago, and it is starting to look like I won't be needing it. I am in central IA. This is the only photo I have, it sure looks cold in the picture. Yuck.  ------------- If it weren't for the last minute, I wouldn't get anything done! |

Yeah I've been kicking it around. Unfortunately, IA. is quite a bit of real estate away. Was hoping to find something a bit closer. Not in any hurry... Steve@B&B |

Agreed-distance is a problem. I doubt it will be going anywhere, so who knows? Something might work out. ------------- If it weren't for the last minute, I wouldn't get anything done! |

Thanks, Tim Mackerer65@aol.com |
