Can I sodder a bar to my lawn mower?

I bought an used lawn mower that has the option of bagging what you mow but it didn't come with a bag. I have a bag from a different lawn mower that would work great if I can attach a metal bar to my mower so the bag has something to keep it in place.

I've tried using JB Weld glue and it holds the bar in place for about 3 times mowing, but then the glue breaks. Wire welding the bar onto the mower would be a great option but I don't have a wire welder and I don't know anyone that does. Could I sodder the bar to the mower?

Answer
Probably not. Like the JB weld, it will not last.

You might try wrapping wire around the joint you're trying to establish, THEN use the JB weld. That way the JB is doing more of a job of keeping the wire wrapping in place while the wire does the job of holding the metal in place. OR make or buy a clamp that can hold the bar in place.

But why not get a mulching blade for your lawn mower? That way you don't have to worry about catching grass and filling up the land fill.

Hope this helps.

How do I prevent my bag from my lawn mower from coming off?

I'm getting pissed that everytime that I mow for like 8 to 15seconds, that bag of my lawn mower unhooks off my lawn mower. If anyone has a solution please help me ASAP.

Answer
Duct tape. It works on everything. It keeps my garage door opener together!
