I should say "poisonous snakes," Bay'.

There are garter and king snakes. We even have the Northern Rubber Boa!

As far as I know, the nearest rattlesnakes are in areas about 1,000 feet lower in elevation.

I am not very mechanical. Still, I have had to mess around with things for a good long time. I am almost willing to mess with it until it is good and broken . Then, buy another . . . I mean, you may as well try . I wouldn't be surprised if Journey's DH took that route with the tiller - reasoning out what might work as he went along.
I've seen things go that way a time or two. :lol: Always worth a try! Especially nowadays when you can download the user manuals online for just about everything. As old as this tiller was, he still found the manual...well, two of them...one for the tiller and a separate one for the engine which was made by a different company.

Wow!

Still a bother, Journey. And ciphering out what some mechanically-minded person meant by whatever it was that they were writing . . . it takes effort! Some manuals are filled with pages of silliness and when you get down to the nuts & bolts - they hardly make sense.

If there is a strawberry pie in his future - - :p.

I love things that are rescued from the junk pile. I especially get excited about things that are used for a totally different reason than what they were originally made for. i'm always looking for that odd piece. dh looks at such things & just shakes his head. he doesn't get it.

Wow Journey, that's so cool! Practically free, if you don't count all the labor and skinned knuckles :D

That's one of the reasons I hang on to my DH ;) , he can always sweet talk my equipment into running. I can operate it all, but when it won't start I'm sunk. I think gas engines have a gender preference.
