I built one of those this week for my grandson, I had a base and handles, stripped it down, gave it a sand and a quick coat of paint, scrounged around for all the other bits to build it, now an excellent machine ready for years of work. I explained to my grandson when he picked it up that it had taken me 3 days to get it ready for him. Ok I'm not the fastest anymore but it still takes a lot of hours repairing and making up all the bits and modifying a plastic carby often takes up to 3 hours to get it just right. At the end of the day at least I know that these mowers will work well for years to come, people just don't understand how good they are
