Cuts grass with a pull behind deck. Simple.

We have about 11 Monster mowers in our fleet. We also help raise money for charities AND race out on the ice. We are located in Green Bay Wisconsin.
We build because…well WE CAN

And it floats! That alone makes it well-nigh the ultimate redneck machine: down the hunting trail, across the lake, back up the other side, and voila: no more tedious bridge building!

Very impressive, if not very safe.

@6: I'm pretty sure rednecks think rollbars are for sissies.

... is it still really a lawnmower? I don't see a deck!

I do agree though, while a nice project, there aren't any instructions or build details, or plans... so it's an interesting find, but not really something I'd want to read about on Hackaday.

In fact, I don't really see any research done in the writing of that post at all. Just links to past hack-a-day post and that comment about owning a flag.

Well it appears the track is not any narrower than that of commercially sold 4 wheel ATV that have no roll cage. The ATV probably has a center of gravity advantage. All in all it doesn’t come close to death defying stunt status. Eliot; other than, there’s a chance this blog may make money beyond breaking even, can the existence of it be “justified”?

Gosh! HackADay is really going down the pipe with such lame hacks…. You guys did much better in the past with more quality hacks, rather than quantity… Please, get better hacks, rather than trying to fill a quota of hacks a day….

@Tony

I agree with you on the engineers code of ethics as far as protecting others. But hackers aren't the same as traditional engineers in that we (at least I) embrace the freedom to risk our own well being at our own, and no one elses discretion.

Your right about the danger of leaving this contraption without a roll cage, but as long as he's only risking his own life, its his call, so I don't see any problem with it.

I only saw this because I forgot to use my bookmark to the /daily sections, but I’m saddened that this is posted with a sentiment of superiority. It is obviously a hack, appears to work for the niche he created it for and is obviously bringing the creator joy. Also, owning a flag is not a character flaw.
