I made this from some scrap around the shop, cost me about $25 in supplies.
Let me know what you think! Thanks,

Thanks Guys,

I have access to a full machine shop at work, and my boss gave me the steel all I had to pay for was the u-joint and coupler.

It's a 2005 Gravely Pro1548 I got for $900.00 with the sulky. It has 243 hours, it was a 4 hour drive there and back to pick it up and I couldn't pass up the deal.

I think I am going to try and make one of those. Where did you get the u-joint and coupler?

Even considering the drive, it sounds like a good deal !!

I got the u-joint and coupler from McMaster-Carr. I think I paid $25 for all the supplies.
