Maybe, I only have one Red Kap shirt I bought just to try them out. I like it so far.
I have been wearing Red Kap pants and shirts for many years. The pants last a lot longer than denim jeans and are a lot more comfortable. The shirts are really good too.

Picked this up about 2 weeks ago. Got it set up and saw 36 deer the first hunt.

It’s called the ABI Force infield grooming machine. We used it this week to renovate and laser grade one of the top rated softball venues in the country.

Nice! I could have used that about 20 years ago. I renovated several fields and built a t-ball field at our local little league park, then renovated my wife's church/school ball field. All by eye with my little PT425. Seemed like endless hours driving circles pulling the drag towards the end. ;)

Igniter for my 1993 Carrier Furnace.

The designed changed but popped it in and back in business.

Wanted to buy local but my 2 supply houses don’t stock so did it online.

That made me go down to the basement and look at ours... It's an Armstrong and was installed August 24, 1984. :)

We bought the house around the summer of 1995. It was supposed to be our 5 year house... We're still here. 😝

A Trusco (Toyo Steel) toolbox and a pair of Hella Roklume 280 N Zero Glare lamps for the our Yanmar SA425. The lamps may be a bit overkill. Now to figure out on installations.
Purchased another pair of Hella lamps. Found some time to construct brackets for the front/rear lights. Used heat shrink wrapped hefty SS square u-bolts with and 12" X 4" X 1/4" steel plates, shortened a bit. A couple of mock up pictures attached with loose brackets. Will disassemble to prime/paint the mounts, secure the lamps and figure out the wiring.

30 year old furnace. You are doing well!!
Cant complain as original to the house and only home I’ve lived in with A/C

Bought the place as is and every now and then little things come up but no complaints…

I replaced blower motor in 1 of our 3 Lennox, recently a pressure switch. The great thing with parts interchangeability is I can swap parts to troubleshoot. They were installed 1995, propane gives very little trouble.
I did modify one that the condensation line kept freezing outside. I drilled 1/2" hole in PVC exhaust pipe just outside ,1/2" copper pipe through it to line from pump. Exhaust keeps copper warm enough so it never freezes.

Great to be able to troubleshoot with parts on hand…

My oldest central natural gas furnace is circa 1920 and as simple as it gets… I’m sure why after 100 years still performing.

Most of the neighbors have 1950’s gas furnaces but as folks upgrade to A/C the old furnaces are tossed… picked up a few spare parts…

Some years ago this person had one of the new energy efficient furnaces
installed after 2 months had his old one installed as the so called energy
efficient one use almost twice as much fuel.

Replaced our 1995 Furnace with new one. I had repaired the old Carrier too many times. New one was $4.8k and has a lifetime warranty on the heat exchanger. Old one just kept breaking too often and I travel quite a bit and when the wife has no heat... well you know how that goes !

Just a recommendation but I would hang them inverted below the top of the ROPS. One good branch sliding across could remove all four of those lights.

Thank you; good point. Have been thinking about the actual mounting. The Hellas can be mounted three different ways. I could also mount them on the sides of the ROPs. They will be aimed suitably. Have primed and painted the brackets. Should be dry and ready to install today. Will figure out wiring after mounting has been firmed up.
