Heres a few shots of stripes and my set up. On the first pic they just got the sprinklers turned on and the grass hasn't greened up yet, it was a wet spring so lots of people didn't turn on their sprinklers, real annoying come august.

Heres a couple more, the first 2 were in august in dry season, and the last I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH, it was some idiot that works for the hotel and thought he could drive on the beach to pick up the pilings that hold the docks in place. Just happened when I was mowing they got him out with a with a hour to spare the tide would have come over the cab, it was hilarious.

Thanks, the first pic was the first time I tried wavy stripes. We had cruise ships in for the last half a month and they come daily till mid october. Ill try and get some more pics of the ship in the background in the next week or two.

sombody needs a dump truck, really nice work. Would love to have some of those hotels.

I wish I could justify a dump truck, I put the walls on my trailer in the fall and spring for leaves and cleanup and take them off in the summer(I really hate them). I would really like a 14 foot trailer, possibly even a enclosed. I would love a 2500 extended cab but really like the 8ft bed so I can fit my tool box and trimmers and grass if I want to, the roads down here are tight, I barely make some turns as is so im trying not to get to much longer or awkward.

Are you talkin about the walk behind or the z trak. If its the walk behind I like it just got it in august its really saving me a lot of time and becoming useful, I just need a bigger trailer to make it easier. Ya a cab over would be great but I cant justify a truck compeltely dedicated to work yet hopefully soon though.

How do you like that 36" Deere? I have always wondered about them.

Ya the buddy of mine I bought it off of tinged the bed off a tree and bought a 05 bed and tails, I like the look much better to, I hate orange on tails, I'll probably replace the orange turn signals up front here in a bit.
Brad The Deere 36 is a great machine, and I got mine used for 800 bucks, replaced belts and blades, runs great. I really like the controls of the 36, If you squeeze the triggers in halfway you set it in a sort of neural so you can pull the machine backwards and turn like a dual hydro would and since it a 36 its light enough to spin around. Its cut down a ton of 21 work in spots I never would have thought, and it cuts way better. Im gonna get a buddy of mine to make a chute blocker, dont know about a mulch kit yet its 350 bucks. My biggest gripe is that I have think about grass clippings, (I bag almost everything), and im not sure about a catcher because then I loose the narrowness of the machine which is why its so great, so im leaning toward mulching.
