Hi Deejay,

Thankyou for your comments. while I agree the Scott bonnar has been a successful australian design and build mower, there has to be some design reason why these motors were placed off centre. I am not convinced.

As a experienced design Engineer and many years of mowing lawns with a professional balanced cutter wheel, the motor side does always cuts the lawn lower.

I am planning on modelling my scott Bonnar mower in 3D and analysing this weight balance difference. Great little project. Then build a prototpye to test.
