lawn striping kits for a Craftsman riding mower?

Postby telias » September 28th, 2011, 7:24 pm

Anyone know how to get one of these or an easy way to make one? I don't mind spending $100 or so if it's a good one manufactured by a good company.

Try another forum, sorry Bestlawn.

mytractorforum It's a great place to find info on tractors and even some push mowers and how to do some simply modifications.

I did a quick search and found this thread. It's a good starting point. Striping Kit

I took a 2.5 inch pvc pipe and filled it with concrete. Then I taped it to the flap on the back of the mower. It worked great and filled cost about 2 bucks to make.
