admin This will be a more appropriate gift for when the weather decides to be warmer and drier. This roller attachment works with most any push lawn mower and bends the grass in the direction of travel. This will create the striped effect that you see on baseball fields across the country. That makes this the [...]
November 29th, 2010 admin Now, if you can’t afford a full snow blower and have to use a shovel, by golly this is the one to get. Let physics and leverage help you clear your driveway with this rolling shovel. This is one of those ideas that is so ingenious, you wonder why no one thought of it before [...]
November 26th, 2010 admin I don’t know where your dad lives, but mine lives in the frozen North known as Minnesota. He’s also getting on in years and he can’t shovel the snow like he used to. So, I’m thinking of getting him this snow blower. It’s good for snowfall up to 16 inches, which a light dusting in [...]
November 12th, 2010 admin If you have a log fireplace, you know the hazards of a piece of ash, still hot, coming out of the fireplace and landing on some nearby carpet. This is a fire hazard that can be prevented with the right tool. A fireplace screen will keep any floating ash where it belongs, in the fireplace [...]
November 9th, 2010 admin I think if my Dad had one of these log baskets when we were kids, lighting a wood fire might have been a little easier. He could have kept the log basket indoors, near the fireplace. They would have stayed dry and not gotten snowed on, and he wouldn’t have needed to work as hard [...]

October 21st, 2010 admin You might be thinking this is the worst time to invest in a lawn care vehicle since most lawns are fading in the fall weather. Actually, this is the best time to score a great price on a riding mower since most stores are looking to get rid of their inventory to make way for [...]
October 20th, 2010 admin If you have to clean up leaves, this is the way to do it. This leaf blower is completely cordless, doesn’t emit exhaust and can either blow the leaves into the next yard or chop them up and spit the into an attached bag. Then even the neighbor doesn’t have to clean them up a second time.
October 19th, 2010 admin After watching my dad struggle with the extension cord for his leaf blower, I started looking at some alternatives for him. I looked at a few gas leaf blowers. While they do offer more mobility, the whole gas aspect is what makes me want something else. Considering there are electric alternatives, avoiding gas emissions in [...]
October 18th, 2010 admin Now that the leaves have started to change colors and fall, keeping the yard clean is one of Dad’s top priorities. He bought this leaf blower a couple of years ago. It does the job adequately enough. The only disadvantage is that it is corded, meaning you have to have it plugged into an electrical [...]
