I met one of these types from Buffalo, N.Y. College graduate.Actually, there's tons of people that live in the city, work in an office, don't drive a car that wouldn't know one end of a chainsaw from the other. Those people probably wouldn't ask to borrow a saw, they'd hire someone else to trim their shrubbery.
They moved in as a distant neighbor and my wife and his wife decided to plant a garden at their place since it already had a Garden spot from the previous tenants.
Next thing I knew my nice 5 hp roto tiller was gone (evaporated) and when I asked the wife about such she said that Jeff was using the tiller in their garden spot.
Couple weeks later I noticed the tiller was back. Wife said it quit running and Jeff got mad and was kicking it, throwing a fit and cussing the tiller because it would run and quit.
When I checked it I immediately noticed no oil in the 5hp Horiz shaft Briggs crankcase, but it was full of mixed gas. (He thought it was a 2 cycle engine) I never said anything to anyone or complained to anyone except I told my wife to quit taking my eq without permission ever again, and Jeff never ever even mentioned such.
I eventually just installed another engine on my tiller and considered myself lucky that it was not worse or more expensive.
Later he found out I could fix most anything, he asked me to help him work on his car engine. I declined the offer in a nice way.
I just cannot help JERKS. (I remained nice as a neighbor but in a distant way.)
My wife did get 3 or 4 nice ripe tomatoes out of their shared garden. (I was not in halves on the garden harvesting)
