Monster Mower

[Bob Reeves]

If you have ever been to Tulsa you might remember the grass berms we have around the circles and pits. They work out well to give a sense of a barrier without actually being... well a barrier..

We started cutting them with the rider mowers set to the highest deck setting but decided they would be better if they were just a little taller. Came up with the idea of "Monster Mower" and this is the result. Bought a pawn shop self propelled mower for cheap, removed the wheels and brackets. I welded in 4 inch extensions on all 4 wheels and made an adaptor for the self propelled drive so it would still function.

It really looks funny kinda like a jacked up Subaru would look but it works great..

Thats very cool idea.  Here's the one that I want.

Hmmmm
If we had one, or two, it would be easy to get volunteers to mow the circles!

Didn't have my camera at the time.  But, the guys out Great Bend KANSAS way had a rider with two push mowers hooked to a bracket for mowing their grass circle and the RC area that needed mowing.  A bracket hooked to the Monster Mower and attached to the rider would save some walking on the first passes aroung the circles, I would think.

Leave to an Okie to come up with a monster truck lawn mower. Since I are one myself, I can say that.

I like the green chopper "chopper", but it needs a V Twin, (preferably a Harley Evolution), and maybe some ape hangers. Drag pipes? Looks like the Tim Taylor special.

 I can almost hear the banjos playing.

That there yaller an green JD thing reminds me of a theme bike made by OCC on"American Chopper"! Bunch of rocket science scooter craftin' crazies suing each other fer nuthin'... 

I like your chopper better Bob! Thats a pretty cool and useful product.

Berm? Our fire ants build higher mounds than that.

A person wants to be very sure there are no foreign objects in the mower path.  Those things can throw a rock really, really fast.  My house has a deep dent in the wood siding and my brother once had his ankle slightly broken through his boots.
