All went well until jack found that missing horseshoe lost in the hedge, lol. My old neighbor once took a lawn mower blade and mounted it onto a horizontal shaft Briggs. That was mounted onto a skateboard with a handle. He used it to trim the grass from growing onto his blacktop and sidewalks. He said his first attempt went wrong when he had the motor mounted backwards and the blade kept throwing the grass, dirt, and rocks at him.
