Overview

A hands-on DIY walkthrough showing how an owner fabricated and welded a perforated steel mesh insert behind the factory brush guard on his B2601 to prevent limb damage, a common real-world problem. Covers material choice (perforated vs. expanded steel), a critical dimension-blocking trick to preserve brush guard fit, Hobart Handler 140 welding technique on thin-to-thick metal, and finishing with primer and paint. Useful for B2301/B2401 owners too.

An owner-operator sharing hands-on project experience from his own 33-acre farm, so expect a candid, learn-along-with-me tone rather than polished instruction.
