G'day NormK and thanks for all the help with this it's great!
I guess it's my original Victa catcher that I have been using for 37 years now and I want to keep using it. I have picked up a few over the years on the side of the road but they have also been broken and missing all along the front lip section.
I am not too fussed about the extra weight I just want to make it strong and reliable as I use this mower all the time and it does cop a battering from small branches, small rocks etc. So I actually probably need something like this metal panel on it as the plastic on it's own won't really last long at all with the rough mowing around here...lol
Cheers and all the best mate!
