Hello all. I'm a retired Air Force aircraft mechanic who now gets to tinker with small engines when I find them for cheap or free. Right now I have a Husqvarna 48" riding mower with the 24HP Kohler V-Twin. A little bit of overkill for my less than 1 acre of grass but it's a lot easier on my broken back than a push mower. The back is the reason I want to switch over to small engines. Not nearly as much heavy lifting compared to a Rolls Royce turboprop! I hope to find some good information on this forum to help me with any projects I may encounter.
Hello from South Carolina!

Hello fellow U.S.A.F. Vet., I was at Shaw A.F.B. back in 70's, enjoyed my time there. Quite a few Vets on this website, I think you'll enjoy it. Plenty of information on this website to keep your tractor going, just join in whether giving advice or asking questions, glad you're aboard.
