I hope you checked to see that the chain in the middle will clear the blade at the closest point. It would make a lot of noise and hurl chain chunks if not.

Great looking job by the way!

Looks real nice, that sure looked like a lot of welding /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif Makes sense though, every cut you loose a link chain /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif How many feet of chain did you use?

Looks good! (I gotta get where I can post pictures on here...) I did mine somewhat like that, only with angle iron instead of channel. It's a bummer cutting up all those danged little chain pieces though. /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Very nice Dmax. I like the refelctors on your cutter.

How does your M6800 handle the mower? Is there any thing you would change if you could start over and buy another tractor?

Also, How do you like your trailer for this tractor?

RonR,
I still had about a inch to spare before the chain would hit the blades
