Hello tezza98_tnharris, BB and DJ

Well spotted!
... although your description of the consequence is quite vivid and gruesome.
Perhaps the concept behind a horror movie . . . "The Mowerman Only Rings Twice"

The original design did include a chain [or belt guard] around that primary drive.
This one would look good with a slender stainless or chrome one.

All very interesting.
