Default Repairing a broken magnesium mower deck

Larry Jaques fired this volley in
:


I'll never understand why otherwise sane people want so much farkin',
blasted grass. Wasting good time, money, gasoline, fertilizer, and
ungodly amounts of water on something which maked their allergies
flare up and their noses run is beyond me.


FWIW, Larry, I water none at all. I fertilize none at all. I mow simply
because I want it to look nice.

The cows do the fertilization, and Florida does the watering. If it
wilts in a drought, I just don't mow.

If I made $30K a year, I wouldn't consider it. I'd just let it grow.
For now, I can afford the gas, and can _almost_ afford the time.

What if you just called it a "hobby". Would you object to spending the
money, then?
