RetroMower 349 #1 Posted July 31, 2021 I wasn't looking for yet another project but when I read it runs and drives at $100 I couldn't say no. I'm really suprised how well it operates. $1,000,000 to the first who can correctly name the brand. No Google image searching is allowed lol I'll know. 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your consolation prize is a pair of I ❤ john deere socks lol. In all seriousness I'm impressed anyone recognized this contraption. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Handy Don 12,204 #7 Posted July 31, 2021 Ingenious drivetrain having the pulley shaft be the pivot for the sulky/tractor to keep the belt tension constant. And the telescoping handle for riding/walking use is quite clever, too. Is there a forward/reverse shifter? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The picture I posted of it its kinda hard to see the little round pedals in front of the foot rests is what controls forward motion. Pressing down on it applies tension and off you go. No reverse tho but it does have a very simple but effective brake that pushes a rod against the tires. And it comes apart extremely easy with one pin if you want to use it as a push mower.
