I spent most of my day cleaning up my new man cave. This section of the barn is really set up nice... fully insulated, in-floor radiant heat with propane boiler, full bathroom and shower with on-demand hot water, air compressor with drops, loft, shelving, 220v service etc... but it is in desperate need of cleaning after being neglected for 4+ years. Lots of dust, lots of cobwebs. Nothing really “dirty,” just unkept. So I wanted to get it as cleaned up as best I could before moving my own stuff over there from our current house.
Our purchase include these two Cub Cadet mowers and this old Cushman utility vehicle with dump bed. They all run well but need cleaned up and some TLC. One of the mowers is leaky oil through the exhaust, so I’m guessing it needs some engine work. New piston rings? I think I’m going to keep the Cushman, at least for a little while. But I think I want to sell both of the mowers and put that money towards a new zero-turn. I think once these mowers are tidied-up they will fetch a decent price.
I’m looking forward to making this new shop “my own” and growing into it.
