Metal Skids Bolted Onto Both Sides Of New Idea Mower
Lloyd Meffert, Hettick, Ill.: "I don't have as many broken blade bolts since I bolted a pair of metal skids onto both sides of my 5-ft. wide New Idea mower. I use the mower to clear pasture land on which I've already cut down all the trees. I measured the highest stumps in the pasture and then made brackets for the skids accordingly, so the mower blades are always at least 1 in. above those stumps. Now I can use the mower anywhere without worrying about hitting the stumps. I used 2-in. angle iron to make the skids."
