Post pictures of your OPE collection!

Being kinda new here, I figured it would be kinda cool to share some pictures of your OPE collection  and describe what kind of yard you have. I will start it off:

I live in Wantagh Long Island NY. My house is on a corner and my property is 85 x 112 ft. (lots of sidewalk!) And around here, it is a contest to see who has the nicest yard Lots of people hire it done and I used to do the same for 2 years but the pro's can never do as good of a job as me  The Pressure Washer, Mower, Snowblower, and the Echo blower were all purchase since I joined this awesome  forum!  Look what you guys have done!!!!

Outdoor Power Equipment group shots. I just cleaned up all my equipment and changed the oil/filters and gave them all the once over. Back row From left to right...



Troy Built 4.75HP pressure washer, 4.5HP Craftsman Yard Vac, MTD 3.5HP edger, Bradley 32" 12.5 HP Mower, Ariens 8.5HP Snowblower...



Front row: Homelite line trimmer (cheap but it works) and Echo BP200 Blower



So far, I am very happy with this equipment (The Snow Blower has not been used yet) The only thing I would have purchased different is my line trimmer. I would have went with an Echo straight shaft.

OK...Now I showed you mine, lets see yours!!!

Thanks Max For The Compliment!

HAHAHA, no max, its not a 4-cycle  My trimmer is a 2-cycle 40.2cc high performance engine with the equivilent to a 2HP 4-cycle engine but with more RPM LOL.
It uses 92 octane gas mixed at a 100:1 ratio. Yes, I do love that blower, it allways had plenty of power for me and I like that power adjustment knob. I have done reviews for all my equipment in the review section so go ahead and take a look. You will find them very imformative!

Your neighbors might have thought you're cocky without that fence.  I could care less myself.  I conplied a large library of my OPE, I hope you'll all enjoy.  It's almost like Power Equipment heaven. 
The photos can be viewed as a slideshow
I also have audio files
Craftsman LT

Nice slide show! And you have great taste in snow blowers and  leaf blowers

As for cocky? Nah...they think I am crazy  Like I really need a mower that big for my yard Here is my neighbors yard after 65K! It is a lousy picture and I stiched it together (notice the fence didn't line up). That deck that is behind the tree on the left is 3 levels. There is like 15 large soft globe lights  and of course speakers throught. They have a ton of parties!  Very nice IMHO but they pay over 15 thousand a year in taxes...so I am keeping my house as is!

LOL, nice going with that picture.  I hope the pool is away from your house cause of overflowing.  How did you like the audio files?

The Craftsman sounded cool! I just love the sound of blades engaging! As for the Echo...well it sounds like mine

OK here are some pictures of my house...
This is the left side and the area where I took the shots of the OPE.


This shot is the front of the house...notice all the bags out front? That is 10 days worth of clippings! I am mowing grass every 5 days and it is high when I cut it!


This is the right side and it shows the garage


And I own 6 feet to the right of the garage


And this is a PITA to mow around!!!


This was not shot today and shows my daughters pink chalk  on the concrete


And last but not least...the new shed that houses all of my OPE!


For all of my pictures (hobbies and whatnot) Cut and paste this link:

Hey Rob,  I just bought each thing one at a time over the past yr & half. I got 16 yards  now.  That is really nice stuff you guys have!! My stuff doesn't get taken care of like it should I change oil and grease and things like that but I guess you should say I'm kinda hard on it trying to keep up with my yards and a full time job.

Nice place, I like the edging around everything.  Could you fix a tractor in that shed if you ever had to?
