It cuts grass like it's goin out of style my friend!

And here we are together at last after a brutal cold windy wet day cuttin tall spring grass. This was just after I hosed her down and the wife pulled up and snapped a couple of picks.

I dig that it bestows such a regal title upon its operator.

"Fastrack Hustler"

Thats "Fastrak Super Duty Hustler" to you!

I just pulled the trigger on some Palmolive Menthol, Proraso Green, Proraso Pre/Post Cream. The last two items are for my dad's birthday present.

"Super Duty Hustler" should be your TSD title

Just when I thought I was out...they pull me back in.


Turkish #7 brush, Arko Cool cream, Astra SP's and ""The Stick".

Hmmmm, can I change it?

It's well deserved. You could start up a little side business restoring these for people.

I'm always amazed at how you stick your stuff to the ceiling and photograph it.

Thanks a lot, I apprecaite that.
Heck yea, I actually already do that. I have been selling on ebay for about a year now and to friends as well.

New package in today!
First off...This is Rupert, one pissed off badger. Thx Rupert

I will be busy the next couple weekends. Should be a lot of fun. A good group of high quality knots.

Can't wait to restore these bad boys. First they are going in the ultrasonic for an hour and then the autoclave for 8hrs.

So don't irritate the queen, or she may be inclined to give you a new title

Wow 20 knots. Can't wait to see all those Restos.

Mail call! Came home today and found these in the mailbox.
"cream"samples from local pig in KC.
One traditional, one milk & honey.

And a1oz bag of menthol crystals to make everything nice and chilled!

Since I like to change my avatar often, maybe I should keep my name the same. But I love that title and will display it proudly!! Thank you my Queen!
