park it on you front porch,that should get them going. i love ****ing with the neighbohood busybodies like going over after dark and spelling "f--k" in their front yard grass with fast growing fertilizer. there is nothing they can do to get rid of except dig it up and replant.BarryK said:Jon, that person was me. I actually knew of those lifts but they won't work as the only place with enough room for the lift in the garage is where the tractor currently is and it won't lift high enough to get it out of the way. Now if it would lift it all the way to the ceiling MAYBE, but it won't in either case. In fact it would create more of a problem because than I wouldn't be able to build the fold-down table/bench that will go over top of the tractor.
Thanks for trying though.
*89x2*, again won't work. that idea has been tried a few times already in my development. First, they don't allow ANY type of exterior structures in our yards at all, sheds, playhouses, etc. Someone who didn't know did put up a large playhouse for thier daughter ( a real one, not even a "fake shed" one) and they made the family remove it. Another family tried a few years later and as it was actually being delievered a representative for the cummunity association commitee made them stop. It wasn't even off the truck yet!!
Many, many, many times people have tried to sidetrack the rule and have been stopped. One of the biggest problems is that at least two, maybe three members of the commitee that deals with this issue ARE lawyers so they pretty much cover and stop every angle imaginable.
It's really partly my own fault - our last house did not have all these restrictions so when my wife fell in love this this house and we bought it i never thought to check the association rules on this issue. It wasn't until after we settled and moved in that I realized the "no-shed" rule.
It's a lesson that I'll always remember and never make again if we ever move again (which will most likely be after i'm dead since the wife loves the house so much)
I'm simply stuck with very tight quarters in the garage to work with. The fold up/down table over the tractor is really my only option I'm afraid
