Hi NormK,
Thanks for the info and the offer.
I thought that's what I might do but in Tassie there just doesn't seem to be that many mowers about and what is, is on gumtree usually for too much or some other savvy "mower hunter" has already snavelled them up lol.
Another problem I have is a lack of workshop space and a buggered back (a couple of surgeries) which is a bad combination for working on mowers but I will tackle this when the weather warms up a bit.
Cheers.
