I need to get to HD this weekend and get some 55 gallon trash bags. Woman is getting mad at me for using the house ones for the grass clippings...

Good deal, I don't know how got along without one. 1.25" isn't a shop vac imo....it's more like harassment. Sort of like steak without potatoes....somethings missing....

Hell, even that tiny one I keep in the travel trailer is 5hp and 1 7/8". It's only 4 gallon tho, too small for the garage.

It shouldn't cost more than a trip to the gas station would lol.

We just dump the mower bag contents to the chickens. They love it when a cut up snake is in there.
Saves $ in two ways.

You need some chickens?

No thanks, neighbors have a chicken farm and that smell is rancid

Why are you bagging your grass clippings, you sell them ? Just sharpen your blades.

I couldn't imagine doing that.

You'll be glad you did. I guess the only downside is you have to make room for it.

I thought we talked about this before, you were going to get one that attached to the wall or something ?

Lets see what you got.

It shouldn't look any different, unless you let it go too long.

To each his own I guess...sounds like you use a push mower, still, there's a better way vs robbing nutrients from the soil. My opinion anyway.
