Making my own mower

Pull behind mower works fine but I'd suggest starting with a deck and a motor. As for fast speed in tall grass, that is likely to be a problem. The rotary blade needs to be able to clear the grass out the chute. Tall grass = more to get out the chute. Faster speed = more to get out the chute. More to get out the chute= more horsepower.

I've seen farmers do this off both sides. Quite the contraption, but I'm not sure how safe.

DON IF YOU PARTICIPATE IN 25% OF THE THREADS YOU START, I WILL BEGIN TO TRUST YOU.

Sometimes in a workplace you find snot on the wall of the toilet cubicles. You feel "What sort of twisted child would do this?"....the internet seems full of them. It's very sad

What is your problem? So I ask questions when I have issues come up then sit back and listen to the advice.

This weekend I found out that the person mowing my back for hay may not do it anymore which presented me with a problem. That is what necesitated my question because I would like to keep this area mower but have no practicle way to do it.

I would understand if I was asking non topic related questions but give me a break.

Don:

Please post pictures of your back.

Thanks,

John Martin
