Homemade Front Mount ATV Mower

I did the same when I got my VA Power scooter..Hooked up my 18" Gas LM and then following yr. Ryboi came out with their CELM and I been using that these past 4 yrs ! Got Freedom and can Mow my Own Lawn again.. VG Helping other Veterans do the same ever since..Happier Memorial Day ! US Army-65'-67'

You had me at rubber couplings to minimize rock damage to drive system. And then you brought out the caterpillar drive. Bravo sir, bravo.

Thanks, I got to hand it you, (and whoever taught you) you really know how to metal fab, probably anything you set your mind to.

I ditto everything PacoWang says. You are the Man. Someone has taught you well in life to do all this. Great welding as well.

It's clear you have given a lot of thought to the various components of this build. From the rubber isolator, to the over-center motor engagement.

The best part is him riding the carriage frame down the shop ramp! Gotta have fun at your work!

Wow!!! You are definitely a master engineer. I enjoyed watching this build so much, thank you.

Very cool. I miss welding and fabricating. I worked at a company where I was the Lead mechanic with all my plus rates (welder-mechanic-machinist-pipefitter-millwright) so I had lots of tittles and The ones I used the most was my welding, mechanic, and machinist. I was forced out at 62, (Down sizing)and I miss that job, but I really enjoy being retired. I am building up my equipment, but I need a tabletop lathe.

Your shop has a nice assortment of tools and your knowledge & skill using them is very impressive. Great build! I enjoy reclaiming, reusing, recycling what is on hand & enjoy getting ideas from other DIYers that do the same. Stay well, Joe Z

Man o Man, Very Nice to See Someone Still Doing GOOD HARD WORK !!

Very well thought out and executed. You young man are a mechanical genius. Thanks for sharing.

Measure, Cut and Weld, Cut and Weld, Measure, Cut and Weld, think, think some more, keep cutting, Weld ........man you a awesome robot man!

I worked around heavy equipment fabrication for many years which involved ALL the processes you employed in this project. Your skill set is amazing.

You mastered that mower the blades are perfectly in line and in balance to the last gram, a couple weeks ago I was mower grass for hay on are farm with a 4 drum I think it 2.5 meter in length and the blade holder snapped of becoming a brick when though it and it shuck its balls off the part weighs 250 grams and the parts shop didn't have a new one so I had to weld one together and I was 30 grams to heavy and I thought it close enough got to the field started her up and it's going off again like crazy just shows what a good job you did to get it spot on 👍

dude !~! you are a mad scientist, great work. been building stuff all my life and never seen anything like this.wow !!

I watched and enjoyed. now I know I want a wire feed welder. very impressed with your skills.

Most impressive video seen yet. Your talent should be worth millions to any MFG in the US. Hats Off and God Speed.

Wow, very cool, a lot better than buying that at the store for $4000, I also just subscribe, watching you videos wants me to go and creat something ☺️

Just freakin' brilliant. Keep them coming!

By the shaft of Thor's hammer! What a brilliant build. I was looking for the easiest way to sharpen mower blades and your video came up! You have a new subscriber my friend. 😀
