Busted the drive belt on the 582-special while mowing the ditch on yesterday, ordered a new belt, but have a week to waite for it to come in.:bash2:

Doesn't anyone in your area carry belts, that you couldn't go and buy one?

Loaded with logs, well firewood anyway...
 

My ATV tires work perfect for pulling this out of the woods and onto my driveway. Makes for easy work.

Cool pic. :beerchug:

Had a crack on the mower deck that needed welded and removing a wheel/tire gave a lot more room to do it. My 5 year old boy was eager to help with the tire removal and installation and my 7 year old girl helped with the welding. My 7 year old boy wasn't interested, instead he just rode his 4 wheeler all day.

Kids helping = awesome memories forever!

Good seeing kids being taught how to do things, well done Dad! :beerchug:

Well said, Sam!

Taught how to do things RIGHT! good job!:beerchug:

Thanks guys! They grow up so quick I try to spend as much time as I can doing things with them.

I wholeheartedly agree that they grow up just way too fast. I did something last night with my son. We filled two 26X12X12 tires with fluid or I should say we put 6 gallons of washer fluid and old green antifreeze in each. I had several gallons of the antifreeze and did not know what to do with it. At this point I should say my son is in his 40s and I am in my 70s. Heck his son helped us and he is 9. Eric did take a pic of our setup to pump the fluid. We used a gallon garden sprayer and a small array of hose adapters but it worked great. We have tubes in the tires and after each gallon we had to take the sprayer lid off to refill it and the air escaped from the tire at the same time. We both were apprehensive about how we were going to get the fluid in but our little homemade set up worked well. It took us less than an hour from start to finish to fill both tires. Hope Eric can post his pic of our little pump set up.
