Skid Shield Built To Fit Across Mower Deck's Stabilizer Arms
  Darrell Smith, Port Washington, Ohio: “Tall grass wrapped around the driveshaft on my zero turn riding mower, causing a seal on the deck’s gearbox to leak oil. After cleaning away the grass, I built a skid shield to fit across the deck’s stabilizer arms, below the driveshaft. Problem solved.
  “Years of wear on the bottom of my Stihl 010 AV chainsaw caused the oil reservoir to wear through. To solve the problem, I thoroughly cleaned the case, using brake cleaner fluid to get rid of all the grease on the metal. Then I applied a layer of J-B Weld epoxy. It has held up for five years with no problems.”
