I want to see some of the lawnmowers everyone uses and see some customised and purpose built setups. Getting an extra mower and want some ideas.
here's one of mine from a few years ago. Both drive axles worked and it had a good amount of traction. I later came out the side of the motor and put a small tubular muffler on it and welded a zoom tube to it so it had a 3' stack on one side. Thought my ears would bleed when I ran it. I used it for pulling junk around and to rough mow tall stuff.

Nice ride. I have a model c-101, it is the only tractor I actually own. Before we moved here, I used it for dragging logs out and big landscaping rocks around. My traction advantage was/still is the tiller mounted on the back. along with a lot of added weight in the rear, if I started to get stuck I would throw the PTO on, engage the tiller, and drop it down. All them tines grabbing in and cutting forward gave it a lot more serious go thisaway -> juice.
If I get another one, I will replace the tines with two ag or atv type wheels/tires bolted together on each side, same deal, drop for traction, up for moving to get where you are going or when you really don't need them. Mine has a hitch mounted on the back of the tiller for pulling a wagon. The tiller trick works really well if the ground is hard, semi frozen or frozen, etc. Even muddy it helps a lot, but the tines aren't perfect, well, because they cut, aren't really designed for traction, hence the idea for just wheels.
