    So Today I go out to cut my weed garden.....I pushed I pulled, I pulled and I pulled till I could not pull No Mo...

    ...then I went and tried to start my lawn mower.

    No luck.

    The ol gal would NOT start.

    SO it 'wuz then our of no where [​IMG]


    I got me some 2 part epoxy, and orange buffing pad......
    I proceeded to mix up a batch of epoxy with the paint stirrer on the flat surface of the Mequires wax can (waiting on my Soveran to arrive) and smeared it all over the orange pad.

    It was then I had that kinda kewl feeling you get when you been settin down for a long time and get up real fast......except this was lasting longer.

    I kinda liked it so I mixed up a lot more epoxy. ;)

    Anyhow......

    I staggered my way through the epoxy dreamhaze and found my lawnmower.

    I then firmly set the pad and place it centered on the flywheel Velcro side up like this

    Then I went over to my cooler to get a glass to drink. Just one, I got weeds to mow.


    By then the epoxy had set up real good....

    SO then I reached for the middle of the 3 FLexes that were on my bench.....(there were 3 cuz the epoxy had not yet wore off) :D

    take your flex and set the speed to 6 and hold it thusly...

    I pulled the trigger and heard a pop..could not figger out why and my neighbor said he heard buzzin in da garage....

    Not a problem. It just tripped the MAIN breaker. I have the Handy Mans secret weapon.......

    DUCT TAPE......fixed it right up!

    Now back to business......set the FLEX on 6......give Her a quick pull of the trigger......

    [​IMG]

    AND there you have it........SUCCESS!!!!

    We are off to the races. I saved myself a $Hunnerd dollar repair bill. I made sure to Let 'da Wifey KNOW how versatile this Flex really is.

    (She saw the receipt)......
