| I have one in barn if anyone needs one, off #7. If you make one, try using "IPE" aka Ironwood or Pau lope. Very heavy/dense/strong wood from S. American countries. I may have some 1X in barn to send you a piece if you want to try it. |

| 1X = 3/4" thick material, not sure how wide you need, may come out of 1X6 [ actual width 5.5"+/-] 3' piece around here would be around $6. |

Brad, from SW Iowa post on here some but I think his computer has shot craps, but he makes new ones with all the bolts, brackets, etc. I have one on my 82S mower and it looks/functions great. If you want to talk to him, send me a pm and I will put you in touch with him. ------------- The 14th Annual Exclusive AC Swap Meet will be held in Boonville, MO, March 7-8, 2025.
