re: Anybody else enjoy fixing lawn/garden equipment they find on the curb?

I am a boomer and did this for a long time. And yes, it was fun fixing things up. But....

One day I was having trouble with a gas chainsaw just back from the shop. I had to climb a ladder with the chain spinning to cut a branch. That's when I snapped... :)

I got home and unloaded every project from my garage. Chainsaws, and edger, pneumatic tools, etc. Listed on Craigslist for free! Then took a shower.

By the time I was drying off, the traffic in front of my house was intense. Passing along the projects to the next guy.

I still fix things to give to others, but have equipment that doesn't give me grief.
