Hello
Mowerwreck Detectives and
ODK members,
I am smiling again
When Administrator Deejay said he was going to post this topic yesterday morning,
he was doing so to see what memories would be jogged. This is a great result.
It shows the power of collective work when challenges are presented.
From my perspective, this helps fill in the record in more than one way:-
In Sir Chook's picture it would appear that SB used 45 green for a branded mower.
Second, SB removed thier own name from the catcher decal - something they did not do
for the 33 or 45 Lawn Kings. I guess it would be nice to find out what the chaincase
decal looked like on the 45 Craftsman.
Second, Sir Chook and Moderator Gadge's photos confirm BB's contention that the regular
B&S engine was used. No special colour scheme for the 45 Craftsman.
Third, the power of corroboration becomes important. Both Blue and BB had direct experience
with this model. They confirmed each other's story.
Fourth, Gadge has added to the MSAA file. That story should be told at some point, as
evidence grows. MSAA seems to have been an effective body in combating the large discount stores...
All in all, I think Deejay will be very happy for a day's work here.
I'm grateful, because I certainly was ignorant of the
SB 45 Craftsman.
