Thanks Sam

That hole really is right up against the bottom of the casing there, isn't it. That is a mod I plan to do to my 2284, just have to quit taking on other projects that take priority

I need a bigger workshop like yours, I currently have one 782 sitting on deck to be worked on next, my dad's Wheel Horse is still needing wrench time, and I have a 1330 that needs the hydro looked at so I can give it to my parents to mow with. Then winter comes and THEN, maybe, I will have time next spring
Anyway, always good to see updates and thank you for reuploading that pic
