Yes it is a horrible job, doing my shower is worse as I have to be a contortionist to get around the door... How does the CT1 compare to silicone? Ease of application? Longevity? Ease of removal, when it's fu**ed?

CT1 is good stuff, they have a new one out though BT1, for bathrooms etc. & it’s bacteria proof apparently. Tool Station do it.

Yeah I've always had rottweilers , although I said I wouldn't have another after losing my last one, but he has been brilliant and gives us loads of smiles, so who I'm I to say?

My new ms400 arrived!

 

[sako243]

Well hopefully today - a friend staying in Worcester is off to collect them later but managed to source a set of front weights for my little New Holland 1220. Hopefully this will help it from pulling wheelies when mowing the lawns...

Also a friend down the road has a Ford 1220 so is keen to get a set cast based off these for his tractor.

How many gangs are you pulling?

 

[sako243]

How many gangs are you pulling?

Just a 4ft Winton flail but the tractor is quite small (just over half a tonne) and the mower is a third of the tractor's weight, the moment you lift the mower up and accelerate fast then she wheelies. In fact she basically pulls a wheelie with nothing on the back. @8ob has the same setup but with ag tyres on instead of turf. Arguably the mower is a little oversized for the horse power of the tractor but as long as you're respectful it handles it.

I didn't want a much bigger tractor as fundamentally it's primary job in the spring and summer is lawn mowing ~4 acres of lawn. The previous owners of the mansion left a John Deere ride-on but that struggled with the slopes being only 2WD and no diff lock - didn't even manage the steep back in-front of the house. This thing has 4WD and rear diff lock and is much more versatile being a "tractor" rather than ride-on.

This is the first time I've used CT1 as a sealant, it ticks all the boxes for this due to damp etc, its only for another year in this case.
Compared to silicone its sticker and grabs when trying to smooth, not as easy to get a smooth finish in this experience
