When you take a purpose-built tool and turn it into an off-road toy, you have to expect a little work. Knowing where to start is half the battle. Having the tools, the shop, and the determination to make it happen is the other half. Every build starts somewhere. 🔧

@landonhummer When I got my mower it’s actually a garden tractor same thing pretty much just different deck I didn’t do any suspension work and it still muds like a beast

@jooshuah Pretty cool to see from when you started. Miss my Rogue Fab days of interacting with all the builders.

@mxwellthegreat What dampeners are on the green one?

@horror_timmy If it was easy son, everybody would be driving them. Not everybody builds, a lot of folks would rather buy...start building and selling them to fund your toys

@lokenilsson0707 Me and my dad have been wanting to build one for more than a year now. But this winter we will start by fixing the motor and give it more speed.

@adventurers_10 My brother and I built one in 1980 using and old sears tractor and a cushman cast iron engine we would take it to a swampy area near our home and have a blast

@rslr Start making and selling parts. Or work with. @sendcutsend to create an online parts store. This is a good idea.

@dairik111 In my case, having some place to ride it is yet another half. ;/

@hellomcfly77 I really wanted to build one. And I have machinist training and schooling. But I decided I’m going to put my efforts somewhere else and just run an ATV for the work I need to do

Keep watching
