The best mower chute block ever!

Save MONEY!!!!!

[@bobbypowell9998]

Man thank you so much. I just did this on my toro and it worked perfectly. Saved me $300+

[@ByWhatStandard3]

Really funny this popped up because I was just planning to do this exact thing with my new walk behind, except I was going to use 1" rubber stall mat instead of wood. You're the first I've seen use the original guard, and I was surprised I hadn't seen it before when I thought of it. I even had the same idea with the rope haha. Great job!

[@williamnewsome5169]

Love, love love it! Apears you also removed the chute spring, very easy to do, however. Will chop mine this weekend...

[@ryderalley4853]

Super simple yet effective. Great idea!

[@johnslawnseasttn4489]

That's actually a good freaking idea. Going to try this one

[@tricksofthetrade4385]

Thanks! Cheap and easy!

[@jonnytyler4805]

Freaking awesome...This just saved me a ton of time trying to make one of these....killer idea dude!!

[@calikid4253]

Washers on those lags might be a good idea

[@conwayconway2177]

Thank you..gonna go dig out my deflector I took off my mower and tryn do this same thing..

I can hear the engineering department slapping their foreheads. Ticks a lot of boxes 😅

This is hilariously ghetto and I absolutely love it!

[@JeeeezBub]

Stupid simple! I'm in!

[@Something2LookAt]

Brilliant!

[@chrismeadows5948]

That's pretty fucking smart

[@arlenbell4376]

Genius and so simple. Easy to change out with an uncut chute!

[@roderick9018]

Love this

[@cameltoegeo]

Also can take the chute right off and make a flat plate to bolt over the opening, since youre goal is to not have grass fly out, that section of chute you're leaving does zilch.....poor man's mulch setup 🤷‍♂️

[@adangutierrez4382]

Mowers dealers are going to hate you for saving people money! Great idea, but some drilled holes would help for venting

[@marcelomarighetti6320]

Perfect I gonna do this on my excellent idea !

[@tricksofthetrade4385]

Thanks

[@brucerobert2355]

Dang. What a great idea.

[@joefiddle52]

I like it!

[@Zeroturnlawncare]

Great all you need is to paint it.

[@silverdragontaylir8252]

Genius

[@reyrey1768]

WTF you are the man you just saved me $500 .. thanks

[@Greenscaping]

Except you’re are eliminating the air flow by having a solid piece blocking the discharge, most all blockers have holes to allow air flow

[@tricksofthetrade4385]

Drill a few holes in the wood then....easy fix

[@westernartifact4163]

When the block is up, does the grass shoot out normally despite the absence of a chute?

[@tricksofthetrade4385]

Yes

[@darryldoty888]

Curious, how does the grass Disperse to then. 🤔

[@Bluegrass-Lawncare-LLC]

It doesn’t, it leaves a row of grass behind . I made one a little different but similar concept and that was my problem. For my gravely 48”

[@tricksofthetrade4385]

@darryldoty888 it still comes out the side and leaves a grass row....then you you come back on the next pass you clean it up

[@stevenlong4536]

Seems like it would leave a thick trail of unmulched grass behind. Only reason I say this is because it’s too far from the blades and it will loose vortex and fall down

[@tricksofthetrade4385]

Yes, that exactly what it does...and is ment to do. Most chute blocks that are even with the deck leave clumps that come out the back...this one leaves a nice wind row of grass that you can disperse on your next pass going the opposite direction. Hope this explains things. Thanks!

Yesss yesssss ye ye ye yesssssssssssssssss oh now I need a sandwich and a smoke

[@njb7209]

😎❤️👍

[@branman7211]

Yeah but leaning forward to grab the string just seems like such a hassle to me. I’d still rather pay money for a grassflap that keeps opening and closing the chute a hands free process

[@branman7211]

To each their own I guess. What you made is very cool though no doubt, really creative

[@tricksofthetrade4385]

The string can be tied anywhere...you don't have to tie it low. But to each there own. We run 6 zero turns...so this says me a ton of money.
