Some of you give "MOTHER DEERE" A bad time but I was out mowing with my Deere 5095 and MX-8 and about crapped my pants. In N.E. Iowa the weed called wild parsnip is taking over everywhere. It is a plant that grows about 4 ft. tall and has a yellow head that looks like dill. I try to keep it under control on my side of the fence but the county leaves a lot to be desired on their side. I admit I was on their side when I hit this so it is 100% my fault. I live on a county blacktop and have wide shallow ditches. I was mowing and the weeds were 4 ft. tall-just missed it with my rear tire but the mower didn't. I thought the mower was coming in the cab with me. You can say what you want about overpriced Deere equipment but I would like to see what would be left of a Farm Fleet mower if you hit this. I was surprised it didn't split the gear box. I have sharpened the blades about 5 times so I never even looked under the mower to see what shape they are in--new blades tomorrow. My son hooked the chain up to it and we used my loader and it is in my scrap wagon now. It is a survey marker from years ago. It is a 5 ft. piece on 3 in. rail road iron with about 12 in. sticking out of the ground. I will say again--MY FAULT--Good news though--while taking the picture of the damn thing in the scrap wagon I saw one of my missing C-vise grips.---Tee

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
