Larry, been thinking about building something like this for a while now. But I think I want to add the secondary push mower on it. More like the second link

Physical Therapy later this morning, then to the car wash to blast that dust off of the truck before I start washing it. Then start on the inside, everything is covered in dust, but it sure was a nice time.

I get emails anytime someone posts on a subscribed thread with a link to the post.
Starting today the email doesn't contain a clickable link to the post.
The link is there but it's not blue and I can't click on it.
Anyone else having this issue? Trying to figure out if it's a problem on my end or FTE.

I'm not any help on that Tony. There's only a couple of threads that I subscribe to. But when I get another email, I'll try to see if the link works. I did stop at a car wash and washed the truck, and now my neck has been fed. So it's time to get outside and wipe the truck down before it water spots and I can't wipe them off without washing it again.
Y'all have a nice afternoon

I don't know about that yet, only have one subscription set up to email me and that's my build thread. I have noticed some things have changed on the site at least appearance wise, not sure if that was one of them.

Tony, I still get links in my email from all subscribed threads within FTE. The emails work as normal. However, since you recently had trouble with the email domain that you use. I would suspect they may have changed a few of your default settings when they repaired their systems. There is typically a setting with in the email client that allows you to disable links in emails that has to do with security. If the FTE emails are ending up in a SPAM folder or a clutter folder, then that may also default the links to be turned off. May have to put FTE on a safe sender list.

Hope that helps. If you want I can schedule a time to take a look at it with you.

The emails come to my in box.
I changed my FTE email back from live.com to charter.net this morning and the email FTE sent me about the change had clickable links in it.
I'm going to look back and see if this started after Charter worked on my settings.
Thanks
I checked my deleted FTE emails and it started 11:53 PM Mon.( this is days after charter worked on it)
Any before that had working links.

They updated something or had a database error. I've seen a few people complain. I assume they are working on it.

I'll wait and see what happens.
FTE is the only one I have trouble with.
I get emails from Oilburners.net and the links work.

I'm trying to snag some free Hickory wood off of Craigslist today. It's cut, just needs to be split. I'm wondering if we have a chapter member in this area that has a log splitter that I could use, rent, or even split the wood

OK, I did get a decent score for some Hickory! There's some smaller stuff under the tool box too.
Now about that log splitter

Nice score bob, no log splitter here. Everything I've ever split has been by hand.
