Thank you for the video. How much weight do you suggest adding in the tube? Planning on using sand.
Thank you for the details to make the stripper, just finished mine and did my first stripping. Looks great! Thanks again.
Hey Matthew! It’s my pleasure. Thank you for watching. I’m not exactly sure the weight, but I’d fill it up with sand and it will be just right.
That’s awesome, Greg! Enjoy those sweet stripes and thanks for watching.
Sorry to be so off topic but does any of you know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account..?
I was stupid lost my password. I appreciate any tips you can offer me.
Welcome to the dad section of RUclips.
😂 100% accurate.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
DadTube… full of lawn care tips, terrible puns and stories that essentially have no beginning, middle, or end as told by those leading lives of quiet desperation in the suburbs of America
😂 you are correct my friend!
Gotta beat the neighbors lawn... dinklebergggg
Add a third eye hook in the middle of the PVC with a string coming up to the handle to pull up on when backing up.
That’s a good idea! Thanks
Who were you in another life?
I did exactly this before I saw your comment. It works really well.
Buumbaclot..Good fkn idea
Hi. What size eye bolts did you get?
I live in an apartment. I have no grass to maintain. Yet I willingly watched this entire video. Well done YT algorithm
😂 well thank you for watching my video.
I was at a Dave mathews concert in 2003, graduated high school in 2005 - I was too cool for anything between 2007-2012, drank beer and happily lived in a bachelor's pad until 2019- now I'm searching this on RUclips...
😂I’m weak asf 😂 😂😂😂😂
#SevenTheRev
Next year me and you will be out of high school 20 years brother…….TWENTY years…..I’m here right beside you with some Nike monarchs trying to get stripes in my yard……I’m gonna have a beer for you and me both tonight bro, we’re old 😩😩😩😩 🍺 🍻 cheers my dawg
I graduated in 2005 myself, the real question is what kind of smoker do you have ? 😂
@@otepayI’ll have one tomorrow when I do my yard, I’ll be wearing my tore up Abercrombie jeans, that i paid to look like I got caught up in my mower!
@@michaelsims4478reqteq bullseye, big green egg (knockoff - charbroil version ) and my neighbors old charcoal grill…. The white air monarchs are on there way apparently!
Neat idea. If you want to make backing up easier add another loop bolt in the middle and top of PVC. Put a hook on the other side of rope and make rope as long as from PVC to top bar. Lift hook which will lift PVC when needed.
Great idea, David! Thanks.
I did this. Bad ass. My neighbors hate it. Haha!
Love it!!! I’m glad you are having great results. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Screw them as long as you are satisfied!!!
I'm sure they hate your lawn looking super cut and their looking boring lol
Dominating 💪🏽
The previous owners of my house left this in the shed. I thought it was used to prop his canoe. Now I know what its for! Awesome!!! Thank you!!!
Now way!! 😂 that’s hilarious. Well enjoy your lawn stripes, Dennis!
Finally built mine today after finding this video a few months ago! It was a little more tricky, but it works and my yard looks great! I’m a chick obsessed with her lawn!
😂 im a chick that does all the yard work. I take pride in my yard, and my husband is not allowed to work in my yard, lol
Yes ma’am!! My wife knows she’s not allowed in the front yard! Respectfully of course! 😂😂
an alternative to lock nuts.. you can use 2 regular nuts and apply thread locks. Don't use super glue, use PCV adhesive sealer
I just finished building one....$10...I found a piece of 3“ PVC. Now I am waiting for the grass to grow so I can test it.
Awesome!! You will be laying down sweet stripes in no time! Thanks for watching.

@@thescout4313 dude, Really?
I will definitely make one like this when I have a house with lawn and able to afford a lawnmower......great idea...
Thank you for watching, TJ!
I have a Raptor Hustler Zero Turn 50" I used carriage bolts and fastened a 2x2 angle to the rear of the deck. Surprisingly the square hole are already there. I then fastened a 36" nylon broom to the angle with lag screws. You only need a 36" broom to fit between the width of the tires. Then the tires flatten that part of the grass. First adjust the holes on the angle, to the deck so the broom extends about 2 1/2" below the deck. This allows me to brush the grass regardless of the height adjustment. I've had it on for over 3 years works great and never a problem. I'm a nut and it's perfect, perfect, perfect. It's hidden, clean install, you can't even see it. Prior to that I tried everything imaginable, they either wore out and broke or never worked at all.
Man this worked great and really made those stripes stand out! Thanks for the tip and build list.
Awesome!! I’m glad to hear you enjoy your striping kit. Thanks for watching.
Wow what a great idea, easy too! I made a leveling tool last weekend and now with this my lawn is going to look great this year. Thanks.
Evert, thank you for the kind word! I appreciate you watching and commenting.
I just made this exact roller. From the economy, prices have changed drastically. For the short pipe it cost me $17, the end caps cost $1.67 each, the pepples cost me $3, the eye bolts cost me $2 each, the harness clamps cost me $2 each, the glue cost me $4, the lock tight nuts cost me 24 cents each, and the lock tight washers cost me 16 cents each. These items were purchased here in Missouri. Still alot cheaper than buying a factory made roller, but this is no longer $15 to make but it still is worth making.
It’s the “Putin price hike”
@@Floridaman458 Quotations never mattered more than this lol
Yeah pvc is stupid expensive
@@Floridaman458 no its the liberal price hike. It was done before putin
Genius! That’s awesome man. Can’t wait to try it out. I’ve always been hesitant to spend $100 on a stripe kit. Thank you for showing us this!
Thanks, buddy! I didn’t want to drop $100+ either.
Yeah, I don't understand why these things are so expensive. Its like a third of the cost of my brand new mower!
Thanks for the great video and fantastic project. I just cut my grass after building and attaching the striper- and it works great!
My lawn looks terrific! The stripes are just like at the gold course.
I used 4 " pvc pipe and didn't know if it would be too heavy, but I simply popped the last cap on without glueing it to see how it felt. I took some pea gravel out until I found the right weight . Very easy and inexpensive project.
That was like the easiest tutorial I have seen. Definitely gonna try that!
Thank you, Ron! I appreciate it.
@@lakehouselawncare1755 ibi
I mounted a soft bristle push broom head on the back of my mower. Works great!
That is a great solution as well!
Genius!
attach a stiff brush for dethaching as well, haha jkjk cool idea
that’s the living definition of “don’t fix what ain’t broke” why buy a new fancy one when your push broom works fine?!
I read that using a brush can scratch the blades of grass and can create a potential for diseases.
I watched your video last week, made my new lawn striper Friday night. My lawn look good before, now it looks even better with this new attachment. Thanks for the tips on making it. It cost be 28 dollars. Great video.
I went a step further and added another eyebolt with nut in the middle of the pvc and use a 28-48" adjustable bungee strap with hooks one end to the pvc and the other to the mower handle. When you need to back up or don't want to strip a certain area, just pull the hook up to the handle and you're good.
I’m a mom but I love mowing the lawn and I am so excited to try this so I can get those lawn stripes I’ve longed for!
Thanks for the comment, Holi! Enjoy your lawn stripes!
Last year I rigged up a piece of conduit and zip ties. Surprisingly I did notice some results. Then I saw you create your own last year, and I'm DEFINITELY doing this this year. PVC makes so much sense.
That works too, but I’ve had good results with this design. Thanks for watching, Chris!
Boat rollers work too if you happen to have some laying around
I built mine today.
It costs me $27 in Chicago.
Thanks for the video sir
Always wondered how my Toro was able to leave nice stripes. I would cut the grass in a pattern just because of OCD and make sure the coverage was complete. But it would leave these nice stripes, it has a plastic skirt that loops into a cylinder at the point it touches the grass. And it's super still, like the skirt you have on your mower, but with a thick round bottom. Like a small PVC pipe, I always thought it was just to keep rocks from being shot at your shins. But it did a nice job of striping. I think adding this to one of those grass clipping push rakes would be nice, remove excess grass while stripping the grass.
I just came from Lowe's a few minutes ago. Looks like I'm headed back out to Home Depot now. LOL!! Excellent idea. Thank you for the video.
Thank you, buddy! Enjoy those stripes!
This looks really good man! Cheap but well built. Great instructions too!
Thanks!! I appreciate you watching.
Thank you for posting this video. Built it this morning and looking forward to seeing the results when I mow the lawn later today!
Thanks for watching, Michael! Enjoy those stripes.
I tried this today and wow what a difference! Thanks again for your knowledge!!
Awesome!! Love to hear it. Have a great weekend, Rich!
Made one off your instructional video last year. OMG, what a difference. Best stripes on the block. Thanks a bunch.
Awesome!! Glad to hear it!
As a former golf course superintendent, I have to say brilliant work.
Thank you, Mike! I appreciate your kind words.
@UCNCcuYnLc8g_I--PTj3-kUQ because i went to school to study growing grass and getting that striped look without expensive mowers is hard and this is a solution. Instead of showing everyone you are a tool, just scroll by next time.
I already deleted the comment from them.
@@lakehouselawncare1755 thanks man. Have to love the internet. When even positive compliments get attacked. 😁
@@MFSINPSA 😂 I just make videos to try to help people out, and I get attacked in the comments frequently. Some people obviously just have bigger problems that have nothing to do with us.
I use your instructions last year and made a modified version for my riding mower and filled the PVC with cement it works great thanks for the tip
Jeff, I’m glad to hear you’ve had success with your striping kit. Thanks for watching!
Nice video! I see that the PVC you used was made at Charlotte Pipe Foundry. I worked at WH Rogers sheet metal and iron works in Charlotte, and our company spent almost every weekend there doing some kind of maintenance work. A very hot place to work and they made all kinds of pipe. Definitely not a easy job, but it seemed to be a great company, and so was WH Rogers also. Again, awesome video my friend. Mount Holly NC :)
Makin' it look easy brother! $15 instead of $150 is right up my alley, Great little DIY project for folks 👊
Thank you, brother!! Definitely a budget lawn move. Thanks for watching my friend!
the best and easiest tutorial I've seen yet.
Thank you!
I have always loved the look of the baseball infields...used to cut the lawn twice, but at different angles. This makes great sense and can't wait to get the PVC into action!
I have always loved the look, too! Thanks for watching.
Did you do it? How'd it go?
Just made mine! But my piece of pvc cost me 25 at my local hardware store 🥵 Used it for the first time, yard is looking crispy! Still cheaper than a striping kit!
Great video…I built my own striping bar based on these instructions. I had to pivot slightly because my rear wheels are much larger than the mower used in this video. So my PVC hangs off the back in between the two wheels with about 1/4 inch space on the sides, and lays about 2 inches back from the debris flap. Anyway, my lines look awesome, thanks for the tips!
Thank you for watching and commenting, Fred! I’m glad to hear you are having some awesome results!
To anyone reading this: with the carabiners make sure you get the ones that can lock, I got the spring type like in this video and for some reason when I turn the mower they disconnect from the eye bolts. Strange but it does it very often when I spin the mower. Locking carabiners will fix this. By the way I mounted mine on the EGO electric mower and it works great
I was wondering if this would work for my EGO. Thanks for the comment added.
Thavks for this. I use an 80v kobalt mower and wondered if the added weight would hurt the motor
Thanks for the heads up!
Where did you make the holes to mount the carabiners to??
@@Anon-ft1yb I drilled two holes 14in apart between the back wheels right above the rubber flap on the bottom of the mower. The rubber flap is 16.25in length on my EGO. My PVC piece is 16in and the eye hooks are 14in apart leaving 1in on each end
I always thought that’s what the flap on the back of my mower was for, thanks for this information
Just made AND used mine today! Worked great. Thank you 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Awesome!! Thanks for the comment, Lawrence! Enjoy your lawn stripes.
I was just thinking of making something that would accomplish this! Thanks for saving me the trial and error part of the project!
My pleasure! Thanks for watching.
I used your design with some modification. I used a smaller diameter pipe, filled with concrete, connected by spinners on the ends to allow it to roll behind vs being dragged and I wrapped the whole thing in a gripping tape to help with the rolling. Works amazingly well!
That’s awesome!! Great idea and thanks for sharing.
@@lakehouselawncare1755 anytime!
Nice, cannot believe I did not know that the strips were grass bent in different directions. Retired and now living in Florida. Now that I do not have to run a business I can get into lawn work.
Kyle! Thanks so much for the video. Just as you promised. I wait with anticipation to use my “Lakehouse Striping Kit”...would love to share the results with you! Looking forward to more of your content brother. 👊
Jay, my pleasure, buddy. I look forward to seeing your awesome stripes!
Great idea!!! I'd fill mine with concrete just incase the end caps fell off. And I like that 3rd eye hook idea for backing up. This is brilliant. Thank You.
Thank you! Yes, concrete would be perfect.
Heavy is better
I'll be doing this!! Brilliant video - best design around I reckon, everyone else has their's rolling.....think this design pushes the grass flatter!!
Could the weight of grass clippings in the bag plus dragging a concrete filled PVC pipe around cause undue strain on the mower self-propel function thus ruining the mower......
@@teebee4992 good point.
I love you. Thank you so much. Going to lowe's tomorrow!!!
😂 thank you for watching! Enjoy your lawn stripes.
How’d it go did it work
Awesome idea that I’m gonna use. Glad you posted it. I’m putting down sod in a couple of weeks and it’s gonna look great with stripes.
Thank you for the kind words and for watching! Your striped new grass will look great!
Thanks for the fantastic idea, I used a 1” x18”lead pipe on the back flap of the mower filled with rocks and it works like a charm!
Cost is $10
Nice, Rocco! I’m sure that does a great job, too. Thanks for watching!
Rocco, how did you attach the lead pipe to the back flap?
Wow, really cool and I loved that I now know how it's done. And now to figure out how to make a checker board! Thanks for posting
Thank you for watching!
Checker boarding is just completing the process in 2 directions kinda like a cross cut if you know what I mean,
One of the best diy kits I’ve seen
Thank you, Mike! I appreciate it.
Thanks for posting, I’ll be doing this for my mower when the spring comes.
Thanks my friend this gave me inspiration to build a stripper. Just as you said cost was 25.00. Inflation. Took me half hour to assemble. on my Husky Mower. Wow this is beautiful. Now I will want to mow often. Keep up the videos.
Thank you, Dave! I’m glad you are enjoying your striping kit. I appreciate the comment, my friend!
Not sure how I ended up here but I'm glad I did! Great video!
😂 I’m glad you’re here! Thanks for watching, buddy!
Great work, you could add another bolt in the middle and a string to pull it up when backing up. Good job I will try that. Thanks
Thank you! That’s a good idea. I appreciate it.
I used to run Locke reel mowers in the 1970s through the 1990s. Built in Bridgeport CT and they cut and rolled the lawn into the Original lawn stripes. The drive to the ground was two rollers with a differential in the middle and a dolly wheel in the back between the handlebars. They dominated commercial mowing in southern New England (maybe elsewhere) until the walk behind rotary commercial mowers became popular.
That is so cool! Thanks for sharing your story.
You are a genius! I love it when people are creative and think outside the box!
Haha far from a genius, but thank you! I appreciate you watching my video.
@@lakehouselawncare1755 Well, I can tell you that you put together a fabulous video for us "Perfectionist on Lawns"! I'm going to Home Depot tomorrow!!!
Thanks, I planted my Zoysia really late in 2019 so last year was my first real growing season, and with my Zoysia is just starting its second season and starting the peak growth cycle, and I want to try making one like you did and add stripes to my lawn. One great thing about Zoysia is it grows so freaking thick and dense! I've seen these builds before, but I just saw yours and it was easy and simple. As a minor upgrade idea, you could have added a 3rd eye bolt in the center with a section of rope and a third carabiner on the top handle. Tie a rope from the eye bolt to the middle handle support with enough slack so when you pull the rope to the carabiner on the top handle, it pulls the striper up off the grass and holds it up until you release it. This is just a rough idea. I've not tested it to see if the excess rope would be a risk to catching the blade. If it is I'm sure it would be easy to use a bungie cord or something to keep it up and out of the way. Liked and subscribed too!
Bah, now that I'm reading, the idea was already below. :-/
Great idea for allowing you to lift the striper and thanks for watching, Noneya!
@@lakehouselawncare1755 Thanks...although my Zoysia didn't do a great job striping. It's so dense that it pushes the blades back up. It does stripe, but even with using a 4" PVC pipe and gravel, the extra weight didn't allow the Zoysia to hold a stripe very long - maybe a day or two. If I was someone that mowed every day or every other day it would take, but I don't have the time for that. Thanks again for the video!
Never cared for how Zoysia grass feels under your feet, it is however one of the easiest to maintain, if you like that sort of grass.
@@88krazie There are multiple types of Zoysia. Some are thin bladed and a bit pokey on the feet. I have Zenith Zoysia which is a medium bladed Zoysia, and I find it quiet comfortable to walk on barefoot. I also mow my lawn at 1.5 inches most of the time versus down to 3/4 inch, so that may make it a bit softer. A few of the neighborhood kids that play in my front Zoysia lawn commented they loved playing in my lawn more than any other because it was so soft and felt good to play in and roll around in. Zoysia takes about the same amount of work as most other grasses. I mow about the same frequency as others with nice lawns in my neighborhood. I can go heavier on the root pruning herbicides like Prodiamine or Dithiopyr, and I need to apply fertilizers and such as often as others, although I do not need to put down as much nitrogen as many other types. Weed control is a little easier as once the lawn is dormant, anything not dormant is a weed and it sticks out like a sore thumb. I live in the transition zone and my neighbor keeps a great fescue lawn. I'm not sure why people like fescue so much. Sure, it has a very deep root system so it can go longer without water, but you plant one seed, you get one plant, and over time that plant gets old and gets diseased or dies and leaves a void which makes it easier for weeds to pop up. You can fight this with a pre-emergent, but when you do this, you cannot overseed to fill in these holes, and if you do need to overseed, you also have weeds growing in at the same time as the new seed. He doesn't put down any KBG to spread and fill in the voids. He mows it with a striping kit, and to most that don't know much about lawn care, the strips look really nice. If you pay attention between mowings, you'll see a fair amount of weed pressure. There' are several spots that are brown where the Fescue has died out and left voids. I put down some Midnight KBG in the first few days of April and do nothing but water it. I used a SunJoe dethatcher which with the dethatching attachment is just an electric power rake, which after mowing down ton 1 inch, I raked and pulled up as much debris as possible. I left the weed root system to maintain the soil structure so the dogs won't make it a muddy mess, and hoped a fair amount of the KBG would establish, which is has. It's buried in a ton of weeds, but it's in place to spread. I'll spray herbicide in late summer to see if the KBG will fill in. If so, I'll put down prodiamine to prevent new weeds over the winter and see how the Midnight KBG goes. I have two dogs that run and play in the back yard, so I'm testing which is easier to maintain with dogs playing, and which is easier to mow. I hate how cool season grasses clump up and stick to the mower deck. My Zoysia doesn't clump like that, and when i have a clean deck starting to mow my Zoysia, it stays clean. Unless the cool season lawn/weeds in the back yard are dry from lack of rain for several hot days, the mower deck is caked with glued on wet grass/chlorophyll, and it dumps grass in bulk here and there as the build up gets too thick. Unless I'm really impressed with the KBG, I'll just take Zoysia plugs and let them spread and take over the back lawn year by year. I don't like other types of grass as much because it feels like you're walking on little clumps of bunching grass. Which is why the kids loved playing in my lawn.
Thank you for the idea on how to make my own roller I will definitely be doing my own and hopefully it’ll work wonders on my stripping.. I’m stripping but it doesn’t show as much I’m excited to try this out
Thankyou for this awesome diy video. ❤️
Thank you thank you I just did this to my 20 inch ryobi push mower cost is now 31.00 with military discount but still good deal and lawn looks amazing
Thanks for the comment, Jordan! I’m glad your lawn stripes are looking awesome.
On my way to Home Depot right now!
Awesome!! If they don’t have the end caps, Lowe’s will.
This rocks and I appreciate your time
Thank you, Bobby!
Great instructions! Will be making mine today
Started my own lawn care company and I am so lucky to have found this video. I m buying my equipment right now ....
That’s awesome, Alisa! Good luck with your business and thanks for watching.
Protip. Put a third eye bolt in the middle and tie a rope to the middle eyelet eye bolt.
That way when you reverse you just pull the rope up.
Also if you dont have lock nuts. Use two bolts and a spring washer in the middle. And id use a washer on the inside of that pvc tube to spread the force out a little.
I'd like to know who thought it was 2 kinds of grass....
If you want stripes on your lawn, you need to let your grass grow much taller like 5”. A lot of people talking about stripes never mentioned this.
Great way to get into striping! I have a TORO with their roller striper that I bought several years ago--seems like it was 100.00 or more back then so it hasn't gone up much. If peeps have time to blow and don't care about more steps then you can do the "big cut" look by going the same direction twice--then go the reverse direction twice. On my mower that gives a 42 inch look per stripe. But...you have to do a lot of doubling back to go the same direction twice. The results look amazing though for just a small 22" TORO mower that ends up looking like you used a larger zero turn rider. On my TORO roller I've always just filled it with water and then dump it out in the winter. Have fun!!
Thanks for the comment, David! I love the look of double wide stripes too!
Use a lock nut and also RED 271 THREADLOCKER for a permanant hold.
Yep I’d throw a lock washer in there too
Good call!
Here is an alternate end cap idea - found this at a big box store "Oatey Gripper 3-in Dia Schedule 40 Plug". They come in various sizes.
Thanks!
Just built one in my basement with all pieces you said to purchase!! Going to fill with sand and mow 2morr!!! Can't wait!!! Thanks bro!!

I'm bout to kick some azz on my corner lot! This just made my day! Excellent video.
Hell yeah!! Enjoy those sweet stripes! Thanks for watching.
On riding mowers you can bolt a concrete finishing brush to the back side of the deck and it'll do the same thing and you won't have to worry about it when backing up. I've had the same one on my Cub Cadet for 6 years, still works great.
That's a great idea, how do you know where to set it so it's not smashed in the ground and not to high up I keep my lawn cut to 3 inches, and I would love to do that I have a few old concrete brooms still look new but I could spare one lol
I need something to make my lawn "pop" so I plan to make that & start striping! Thanks for sharing an economical method for doing it! (I'm cheap lol)
This will definitely make it pop! Thanks for watching!
Thanks, this was a great video. I like to take care of my lawn and wanted to have stripes but didn't want to spend big money, so this was a great alternative.
Thank you for watching and commenting! Enjoy your lawn stripes!
Thanks for the great music OP. I make love to it now
😂 thank you for watching!
I did this years ago, but used PVC end caps and drilled holes in the center of the end caps. You can buy a threaded steel rod that goes all the way through to the other side and bolt it on the end caps. This way it rolls rather than drags.
Keep in mind that lawn stripers really only work best on fescue and bermuda grasses. In my opinion, it's not worth the trouble trying to do in on St, Augustine, or similar type grasses.
That works, too!
So you had success with Bermuda?
@@rameshkaranam
Yes, it will work on Bermuda. Ever notice how golf greens will have those strips also?
It just doesn’t work too well with St. Augustine which is everywhere here in the south.
@@Shaken_AND_Stirred thanks for the response. Let me try this !!!

Most certainly. You can’t beat the price.

Great tips Kyle! I made a video on a DIY stripe kit last July that video is my channel only difference I did was use string to attach it to my mower, but I think I will switch to carabiners as the string always falls apart
Thank you, Andy! I used to use zip ties but they broke all the time too. This design has never failed me.
Stripes for days 🤤🤤🤤

Predicting< a reversal of a trend is risky, and even worse, I believe there is more to this market than we understand currently. When people are losing, they don't aim to increase their average, but that can only change if you have a personal trade guide and signal provider like that of Kennet Gibbs which has made me almost 8.7 on a 2 btc Trade capital over the last 2 months. Make the wise decision. Markets fluctuate in cycles that can last anywhere from a few days to several years. In the case of B-TC, it's difficult to make a bullish case simply from looking at the charts.
Never missing out on an opportunity to grow my portfolio this year..
I need to start investing….

Awesome. I think i might do this but with the one modification of adding another eye bolt or two on top but very towards the rear and attach some paracord with slack to my handle so i can easily lift it for backing up ect. Thanks for the great video
