Thanks for the video. I have the same mower. Put the blades on today and wanted to make sure I didn’t miss something. They were a really tight fit to the deck. I had one corner of one of the mulching blades was just barely hitting the side of the shoot. Just took about a 1/16 of and inch off the top corner of the uplift wing and she’s good to go now. They put a little lag on the engine when you start up the PTO with the extra weight, but the cut is by far better than anything else out there.
Hey, brother, who knew you’d be a how-to podcaster? The bib overalls make you look more like Dad all the time. Nice job on the lawn mower blades, by the way.
Did you ever get around to posting a video of the cut quality ? Was going to buy a set I’ve got it in my head that these mowers don’t stripe as well as exmark or scag fuel the factory blades not being recessed into the deck the factory blades hang even with the bottom of the deck or a little lower and think putting straight blades without the slight John Deere bend and adjusting the cut height right would get these mowers producing a high cut quality. I’ve noticed with a scag/ exmark I can put 2/3 different line sets in a yard and they all look like I mowed them that week, on the John Deere if you cut a different direction one week you can’t see the lines from last week and hard to deliver that diamond or checker pattern I’ve gotten so used to mowing for the old landscaping company that had exmakrs
