What baffle?
My 42" ( the one i'm getting rid of when i strip it down) has got 16" of baffle left - 1 1/4" high.
Now my 48" deck's baffle is 2 1/4" high & aprox., 5/8" below the top part of the blade. I placed the 4x4 to hold it in place. Been wanting an excuse to go buy a 90amp. feed welder from Harbor Freight. $79.00 its on sale from $ 149.00. Not ever expecting to do any heavy welding so it will do when I get some new stock & tack it in.
Even the wife agrees with this, why should I take it over to a welding shop & pay them to do it?
It's not pretty but as solid as can be, except for the baffles.
Nik,
