Hi BB,
That's good feedback and I am glad that all the things you have mentioned were conscious decisions.
As far as the mower going to be available for sale, the reality is I can only keep so many things but I love bringing old equipment back to life. I hold three trade qualifications however in my middle management role I simply don't get the opportunity to apply my skills, which I do love doing. Restoring things like this mower gives me the opportunity to get hands on and "scratch the itch" so to speak.
