So I have co-worker who has a hard time leaving well enough alone. I snapped a pic of it after he finished putting the final touches on it and thought I’d share. The paint is was stripped off the handle and auger and chrome plated. A custom bracket of aluminum diamond tread now holds the on/off switch and primer. Engine and gearcase was painted candyapple red and a custom fuel tank was built out of a piece of stainless exhaust pipe and endcaps turned out of round stainless stock then polished. I think he’s got waayyyyy too much time on his hands. I once gave him an old 70’s Penny’s pushmower ready for the scrap heap and he turned it into an orange, complete with racing stripe and aluminum spinners piece of art.
