I know the feeling... Last week I had a bear tear into the siding on my house in three different areas. I had to mix three different color stains to get the right look.For F@&#s sake. Trying to match my trim I did a year ago. Not working out. I can hide this piece in a closet. Now I have two coats of shellac, probably gonna be worse.

Another fun day... let's never do hubs on a Ford again. All bolts out and it then took 2 cans of freeze spray, me with an air hammer behind and #1 Son pounding on the hub flange with a 5 lb for almost an hour a side to get them off.

I've done that for my garden tractor mower but they are not anywhere as thick as yours. It's a 50" deck....and is that rust holes I see in that deck???Remembered that I changed the angle of the dangle on a bush hog blade before we went to camp. Figured since we're stuck at home till Saturday at the earliest I'd tackle it. "Just heat it up and straighten it with the 10lb".... who was I kidding? 12 to 15 tons in the press in numerous locations and shaped it back close enough.

Yeah, my neighbor keeps on running over stuff and then wonders why his zero turn cuts so bad. He runs over everything thinking it ain't hurting anything.No, it's just missing paint and surface rust. The thing is damn near new, but I've gotta stop trying to cut 1' diameter rocks.
