FINALLY finished it just needs paint.
Used it tonight on the driveway and cut a little spot on edge of hay field it worked well. This weekend I will take it to the pond and see how it does. I ended up going with a belt and no clutch. it works well and handled off cambers and the break away works good.

Thanks, me and kids taking it with us to the pond so we have more time to fish instead of weed eating around the pond I try to get some photos.

Didnt get any photos at the pond but only took about 10 min to trim around 3 acre pond a job the usually never gets done all the way as it would take most of a day. I just need to clean up a little brush that is in a few areas so I can get to them.

The kids caught lots of fish so it was well worth the time it took to build.
