Re: Reel mowers... with a TC33D?

I know all about not letting the grass get too tall. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif But we didn't go by my definition of too tall. We kept the mower in a shed inside the garage. If the mower was sitting out when I got home from school, I knew it was time to cut the lawn. Heck, I thought it was a great improvement when we got our second reel mower and it had a recoil starter. With the first one, I had to wrap a rope around a spool then pull on the T handle to spin the crankshaft to start the engine.

Mike, I guess you remember the major reason the rotary type lawnmowers outsold the reel type. The rotary type cost a fraction of what the reel types cost.

Yep. With the chain, clutch, blades, cutting edge the reel mower didn't stand a chance. /w3tcompact/icons/frown.gif
