I have 3 Victa 160 sports mowers. One has a motor that needs rebuilding but the other two are ok. My intention is to build a slasher /mulcher from one of these by welding a permanent grass clipping ejector style base similar to what was an option on earlier mowers instead of a catcher. The bases are steel so welding is easy. I also have a round blade disc from an early Mustang with the extra raised vents that I am considering cutting and shutting two other blade holders to convert to a 4 blade disc. What I am looking for is suggestions to design the ejector chute for the cuttings. The industrial mowers just ejected the cuttings out to the side, I'm taking them out the back and to one side.
Any thoughts?
