I'm thinking of doing something like that with my landscape rake? I like how you bolted it to the angle adjument holes. Did you just drill holes in piece of scrap? Also, could you take close ups that show how you attached to the triangle?

thanks,

Chris

I use 3/8 x 2 flat drill two 3/4 holes bolt to the holes that were already on the blade real easy an works great.
