This afternoon I figured it was a good time to work on the lawnmower
I have a Walker 0 Turn mower
Far from new when I bought it , it now needs a little TLC

OK a while back I saw a seat design for the mower that I liked better than the factory , the orignal was in bad shape
It claimed to have a lot more padding and cloth not plastic covering
But ......I had forgotten where I saw it listed for sale

So I started searching the Web
I did a number of searches , all came back with ......lots of web sites

I bet I looked at 100 websites , all had seats
But not the one I wanted to try
I was about to give up , I figured I could after 1 more web site

OK that was the one that had the seat I wanted
More $$ than I remembered , but I figured it wasn't that much more and they had the other parts I wanted for about what everyother place was charging


So what are the odds that I could search 100+ web sites
Be ready to give up and find what I was looking for on the last web site I was willing to look at ?

Oh well , I have a few days to woork on the mower
Only a high of like 12 degrees (F)

I guess I can just cast a few more bullets for the 45/70 till the parts show up

There is something to be said for persistence.

Glad you prevailed.

Or as the old saying goes, Its always the last place you look. I have an older grasshopper i bought used and had to replace the starter and clean gas tank this year. Its been a great mower and is much easier for me to get on and off of than the garden tractor types.

Hard to believe how dependent we've become on the Internet for finding the stuff we need every day. I've run around three counties looking for stuff that was not on the shelf, showed up a few days later on a big brown truck.
