Tried to purchase a Baker edger today like Robert Milton had made. Unfortunately, they are 4 to 6 months out.

As some of you know, I am in the process of selling my LT35 and upgrading to the LT50. I know that the ride along chair is an option but I was curious what y'alls opinion.

What are the pros and cons of adding it?

Thanks,

Hi guys

It's been a while since I've posted here but I have done a lot of lurking and reading .

My Kohler sawmill motor starter seems to be getting a little " lazy" .

It's a 29 year old machine so I guess that is to be expected.

With that in mind where would be a good place to source an after market starter for my Kohler gas engine Model CH 20SRead More
