I developed this little scythe to cut weeds and grass that the lawnmower can't catch. In particular, I cut off the flowers of the dandelion, which grows quickly, so that it cannot form seeds.
What you need:
- the three parts printed with the 3d printer
- a tube or rod with an outer diameter of 10mm (i used a Windhager Pflanzenstab 11x900mm and removed the plastic coating from the attachment points)
- Snap Off Blade 18mm (which is normally used for cutter knifes)
- 3 countersunk screws for plastic, length < 10mm, inner diameter 2mm (for the blade holder)
- 2 flat head screws for plastic, length 10mm, inner diameter 2mm (for the handle)
