that's really cool
i want to make that now

[@stinkwellexhaustcreations]

Thanks! Make sure to get a tiny bit of space between the half thick liftarms so that it runs smoothly. If you're having problems with that you can also get rid of one "row" of liftarms for a bit more space. Let me know how it works!

@@stinkwellexhaustcreations ok thanks :)

Cool! I want to make one but I don’t think I have some of the parts, especially for the scooper.

[@stinkwellexhaustcreations]

What parts are you missing? Maybe you can replace them with other parts.

Hi i liked your vieo cool idea it gets stuckl for me how to make it not stuck i made the gaps but once in a while witha few rotations it gets stuck

[@stinkwellexhaustcreations]

Does it get stuck because grass gets wrapped around the axle and causes friction or could it be the thin liftarms catching on each other, I had that problem a lot. That can be solved by removing a row of liftarms and increasing the gap but don't make the gaps too big, otherwise it likes to pull the grass in between the gaps which also makes it get stuck. Finding the correct gaps can be tricky, maybe experiment around a bit with different arrangements.
Are you using it on a flat ground? I tried it on the lawn and it got stuck immediately every time so I wouldn't recommend that.
