Great news! Hang in there Frosty and Deb.

Hang in there Frosty and Deb. We're pulling for you. Prayers sent. :(

Heres one from Mark Aspery's YouTube chanel.

Thats cool...so to speak. :D

"Hey! Remember me? Sitting over here in the corner? See this rust beginning to form on me? I need a little attention, dangit!"

I've wondered the same thing. I'm looking forward to some more informed responses.

See attached photo

If I had a clue that I was going to want to blacksmith back while my father was still alive I would have gotten him to show me a thing or 3. I really miss my father...he was a REAL blacksmith.

I have a PDF article that goes into this in a lot more detail but it exceeds the limit for IFORGE.

The first picture with the lake and the hills is stunning. Also a fine bit of iron work. Nice!

Pics, man. Take lots of pics.

Oh...and post them to the internet. :D

I was gonna try one of those but I opted for $400+ worth of O/A equipment.

If you get it let us know how it works.

Thanks guys. I'll be pulling the carb and going with Ironhorse's "short and easy procedure" first. I'll also get a new plug, air filter and in-line fuel filter while I'm at it. And depending on how it well comes apart I may need fuel lines too.

Failing that what do I need to ask for in a rebuild kit when I go to the shop?

Cool video! What camera did you use?

I got a Flip Video camera for my birthday.

My father-in-law pays to have his lawn care done and he had a nice Craftsman riding mower he wasn't using any more so it followed me home.

All I have in it so far is $35 for 2 new tubes for the back tires. I'll have to get a new battery for it. The one thats in it has a date of 2002 on it. It's a 12 horse Briggs and Stratton w/ electronic ignition.

Anyway...I put fresh gas in it and used the jumper cables and my pick up and she fired right up...but it's ain't running right.

I took some video of it with my birthday present (Flip Video) and up-loaded it to youtube.

What Hofi videos?

Are there antique stores there?

How about welding/fab shops? Maybe you could stop and ask there.

Farm type auctions?

Good luck with the search.

Where'd he go?

Looks like I need to save up $350 more dollars...
