We should do a "mower of the month" just like the LOTM. I nominate @jimbeckel

Also, @jimbeckel I recently purchased a few greens mowers, a GM 1000 included. It doesn't have an air cleaner assembly similar to yours. I just think that is perculiar, 2 folks in our area recently acquired a GM 1000 and both were missing air cleaners.

thanks for the kind words, I have developed my mechanical skills over a lifetime, I probably couldn't have done this ten years ago as I have developed more patience. I'll have a lawn journal in the spring, I am going to level my yard with sand and start using my rebuilt toy.

Where are you going to get your sand from? I am planning on doing a level in the spring as well.

I think other members have suggested getting a fine sand like masonary sand, I'll start off with Meridian on Slaughter Road, it used to be called something different but their sign has changed to Meridian. They sell brick and block and have a large pile of sand in their lot. They are about 3-4 miles from my house. I'm going to buy a drag mat that you pull by hand, you are welcome to use it when I get done with it.

You aren't far from me then. I live right around the corner from that place on Slaughter.

I'm over in Lake Forest off Martin Road, did I see that you bought some reel mowers recently?

I over in Windstone subdivision off Madison pike.

And yes. I recently purchased 6

What kind of shape is the Toro in?

It's not too bad. I've seen worse.

If you plan on keeping the Toro, I have some leftover parts that you are welcome to have, got some bearings, carb rebuilt kit and other misc. parts. PM me if you want them.

@jimbeckel I will take you up on that. Starting to work on the 1000 I acquired and it needs both a carburetor and the air filter housing. How do you want me to get them from you?
