</font><font color="blue" class="small">( It always amazes me how a nut, bolt, part, or whatever can fall off your tractor and never be seen again in this lifetime. The only thing that I can figure is these parts must be retrieved by aliens in the middle of the night because once they are lost we never see them again, ever.
The latest was a large 16mm X 110mm bolt that secured one of the front BH mounts to the 40D. Not sure how especially the larger items just seem to melt into the landscape never to be seen again. <font color="red"> One would think that the mower would find a few but it never seems to happen. </font> I expect a smaller nut or bolt to disappear but not the big boys.
I have also lost a rather large pin used to lock the boom on a rented BH some time back. That chunk of steel cost me 50 bucks to replace. And then there was a fairly new 20' piece of 5/16" chain that we were using one day that just up and disappeared.
If this keeps up maybe I'll need to change my TBN name to "abducted" or something similar. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
So, what's the largest fastener/part that you have lost or had abducted at your place? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif )</font>
<font color="red"> Have you tried magnetic blades on the mower?</font>
