    I did a 5 min video of my gear this arvo while it was out. The video is not up to the standard of most lawnie vids, but the best I can do.

    Happy to help you out BJ.
    I don't think there is anything too extravagant there though. A lot of it is 4-6 years old and about at the stage that I needed back-ups for them.
    Still a couple of things on the wish list, but will have to see how winter pans out.

    Just going through the archives, looking back at 7-10-2011 when I posted my first equipment startup pic when I very first started mowing lawns wasn't really sure if I would like it, I started with 3000 bucks all I had was a van and no lawn mowers. I went to my first quote with no equipment at all... put all my jobs to a Friday hoping to get enough quotes to gget a full days work then I would purchase my equipment..
    Now 8 years later, lawns have been good to me, I have bought a house, and I own all my equipment, in summer I do work 7 days a week though...and in winter I go away for 1 month. Kinda think we have the best job in the world.
    M=And in a few months im getting married

    So decided to go back to having nothing
    Anything Ian says may or may not be garbage, it may also be his own opinion or it may not be his opinion at all, it may just be something he felt like stating anyone following his advice does so at their own risk and may be doing something Ian would actually advise against.
    And if you don't like what Ian has to say use the ignore function if you don't know how ask i will gladly tell you

    Hi Mate, Yep in every single way, I got rid of the toro and bought the Cub cadet,
    The toro is a good machine and I kinda buggered up with it, I got the dealer to install the mulch kit when I bought it and they didn't give me back all the brackets and stuff they took off.So now I cant side throw with it, and with the mulch kit your kinda stuck only mulching lawns and anything over 2ft it strucggles, I wished I never put the mulch kit on. so this is why I got rid of it.. but over all great machine but comparing to the bobcat the toro was very slow
    And the other massive decider was dealer help. I had nothing but issues with the toro dealer in Sydney took 4 weeks to get a set of blades in, they ordered the wrong ones and when they figured it out the blades I needed were on the shelf...and when I had issues with it, I had to push them for warranty I had to fight for it...only got it because I found out they had an issue in the U.S that they had a fix for..overall great machine but dealer support is crap
