Ride on Deck Rebuild
A full mechanical rebuild of a ride-on mower cutting deck — stripped, fabricated and restored to better than original.
Mechanical restoration is methodical work. Strip it down, assess what can be saved, fabricate what can’t. The goal here was a deck that runs true, cuts cleanly and lasts another decade. Function as the brief.

On the rebuild
A cutting deck that’s been neglected develops its own problems — worn bearings, bent blades, rust working through the metalwork. Sorting it properly means starting from scratch: everything stripped, assessed, replaced or fabricated where needed, then reassembled to run true.
