I didnt either when I was younger and I eventually tore up a mower engine trying to cut really thick grass with a completely blunt blade. That motor never did run right again. When I took it to a small engine shop they took one look at the blade and they laughed and said "Heres your problem" and the told me about keeping the blade maintained. I'm gonna buy a gringing wheel one of these days though...Doing it by hand with a 12in bastard file is just to much work lol

Omg yes get a grinder lol. Harbor freight 20$. I start with grinder to get the bulk of it. Then finish it with file. Just got to make sure u don't take off to much to one side. I put my blade on a nail in wall threw mounting hole to make sure it's balanced. I didn't one time I thought the blade was going to shoot out from underneath hahaha

lol, Yeah thats a good point and a good way to test for balance.

My late grandfather showed me that trick yrs ago. Or you can hang it from a string in same place. To check it. Balanced blade is very key spinning that fast. I learned the hard way. Haha

But I'm take guy that would push and push.then some idiot that can't drive would cause something to happen. Because no one pays attention anymore while driving. I will just play in the dirt like a kid that I am at heart. This is my baby 95 ranger 8" sky jack lift.40"super swamper.xold air intake.straight 2"exhust rite off header.

Nothing better then a sharp mower blade Even my edger I turn the blade every few houses. The concrete rounds the front part while sharpening the back. 🖒

 

[STONER RC]

I never knew about lawn mower maintenance in my teens or even my early 20's. I just knew I had to mow the lawn. Or my dad would be pist if not done. Never knew he did regular maintenance to it. Lol dam kids until I got my first house and destroyed/burned all of my lawn. Because of a very rounded blade and cut way to short. That's when Grandpa and dad taught me about mower maintenance.amoung other things I didn't know about owning a house and what a surprise/shock. And now in my second house I try to keep a nice lawn/house. I TRY LOL

Ok, Newest installment of Lawntoy 2.4Ghz. I should be able to finish her up tomorrow! I'm gonna start off by running 2 lipos and see how far I get before they die. Ill have a back up set rdy just in case. If it take more than 10K mah then I'm gonna order 2 more 4S lipos and run 4 of them in parallel.

Someone needs to teach me how to weld! lol

Dude hats off to ya. That's awesome!! Nice work can't wait to see it run. Nice idea on the front end looks good. You can solder so welding wouldn't be that hard for you. Can get a mig welder for 90$ at harbor freight. That would do the job. It's all about temp and a nice smooth movement.

I got a buddy of mine who did some mig welding before he started doing carpentry. I'm gonna get a mig one of these days and have him teach me!
Oh and Thanks for the kind words. I been working my butt off non stop all weekend on this thing.

Looking good. If the front wheels dont work out, cub cadet sells push mowers with castors wheels in the front.

Some rc mowers cost up to 20k. I know a guy that has over 40 stump grinders. His favorite, a vameer with a cummins diesel, all rc. He could literally sit in the truck and mulch a stump.

It definitely looks like you have man well done bud. You will pick up might welding easy. I'm sure a mig is a hell alkt easier then tigging

These are caster wheels too so I'm assuming they will work unless they end up being to narrow at which point I will look into those particular ones. Thanks for the heads up.

I've got the entire front end completely bolted together. I sure wished I could have welded today lol. That being said I made sure that every surface has a lock washer and Orange lock tight. So that so that Is sucker aint going nowhere!

I forgot to mention that I manged to get the ride height just about spot on. The deck height is siting about 2 1/4 in off the ground. My good push mower is at 2.5in deck height so I'm happy with that
