Has anyone made this before and do you have any ideas or tips? I can only find information on the web for making it for a riding mower. Thanks


Answer
Here's some basic rules to follow when you make one. You want to make one that rolls not one that you drag behind. You'll end up dragging the cut grass. It will need enough weight to bend the grass. It will need to be as wide as your mower's blades. Attach the roller to your mower's arms at the lowest point just above the deck with metal or wood bars, not chains. It could roll into the blades that way when you have to back up. your mower will have to have a bagger or mulching blades with the side covered. Throwing cut grass over the area you just rolled will loose it's look.

3" Schedual 40 PVC pipe filled with concrete with a 1/4" steel screw bar set in the center is a good way. 3" steel pipe thats 1/4" thick is also a good roller.

I want to have a putting green effect on my lawn. Thanks!


Answer
Gradually lower the mowing height of the mower. Mow every morning when you reach the desired height. Usually 225mm. Regular rolling with a heavy duty roller, Verticutting and top dressing two times a year. It's alot of work to keep a putting green.
