    You covered everything I need to know. I just got one of these mowers as a hobby and this is really good information. As far as how to sharping blades, each person needs to find their own way / use what works for you . If there's 10 ways to do something ..... Pick one 🙂🙂🙂

    The adjustment threads do my head in. It's like I'm learning it for the first time whenever I need to get in there and adjust it. When you get it spot on though.... That scissor cut is bloody satisfying.

    G’day Michael 😃, I wouldn’t recommend it. Both the reel and bed knife need to be ground as a set and with the bed knife bolted to the sole plate.

    Hi nice video, you have inspired me to buy a drill press and convert it to a back lapping machine! When you first built the machine, it looked as though it was running a little fast even on the lowest speed (I think you even mentioned it in the video) In this video it looks to be running slower, have you modified the machine? if so how? Thanks.

    G’day mate, I believe it's an allusion on video that makes it appear a different speed. Yes I't does spin a little faster than I'd like. Iv resently got some stuff to modify it and slow it down. I'll do a video of it at some stage 😃👍🏻

    Great question 😃, I actually want to do a video on this matter. In My opinion for a lot of people no it's probably not worth the time. It's definitely time consuming. However if you are someone that might get joy out of the extra mantanance aswell as the mowing. Than maybe it might me right for you.

    Alex, how are ya mate😃 minimal and you want it as Evan from Side to side as possible. You’ll know when it’s to much because there will be to much resistance between the two and it will be very difficult to spin or possibly lock up once you apply the past. I hope this made sense 😃👍🏻
