Hello JonS

Welcome to these forums and thanks for sharing this most unusual
machine. There is some history of 'backyarding' or DIY mowers on
these forums and it is an art form - or should be considered so.

I hope you have given it a name - Victorbeast or The Victanator, or something.
A couple of more photos would be good for the record.

You may enjoy a story on a nice Rat Reel here:-

I like it!
