Hi All, My little suzuki is running great again and I am looking for a project. My Rover has a catcher and the back flap is what holds the catcher on. I am wondering if I could make up a sheet metal side chute that fitted on in the same manner.

I am thinking you'd have to ensure you throw out the same side as the base plate vortex spins but what else should the chute be doing? Should it be directing the flow of clippings out and down, into the lawn?

I can design it up in CAD to be made in sheet metal then assemble it together myself. Any feedback, thoughts or ideas are both welcome and appreciated! Thanks!
