I've always been a tinkerer, as I age it seems to do nothing but intensify. I'm one of those repurpose everything I can, I hate to see something half decent go to the landfill.
Currently have some sort of John Deere bug, I've got a gx95, a L120, most of a 260 and (1.5x)265.
I've got a plasma cutter, a couple welders and a pretty dangerous mind so keep an alert watch for projects like a 110 HP 2 stroke outboard engine swapped into that 260, a 92 HP 2 stroke jet ski power plant into a go cart and a generator powered Batwing mower for doing the slope behind the house.
