Cheap Lawn Striping Attachment

[MrJimi]

What about some kind of a lever to raise it with when you go around a tree/shrub etc.?You have a good idea and with very little work I will see yours at the Home improvement stores

Gene, I used a piece of 4" schedule 80 black pipe with a 1" solid axle and 1/2" plate end caps. A little overkill? but I think regular schedule 40 would work out just fine. Nice job on the framework, it looks good.

MrJimi,
I like your idea of being able to raise and lower. I'm going to put my thinking cap on for that one.

Harleyscooter,
Wow! Your lawn striper is way cool! I like how you made it to fit the 3 point hitch. Great job!!

Looking at your pics made me wonder if a light weight roller with a compression spring setup for down pressure to your rear hitch area with a pull release to raise it during turns might work.

Gene, That really looks like it does a great job! Too bad you had to invest so much to build it... /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

You seem to really do some very good projects and improvements on alot of your equipment...
