Gracie Mower Blade Snagger

What is the Gracie Mower Blade Snagger and what does it have to do with gardens? Well, there is lawn in many gardens, and where there is lawn there are machines to mow the lawn. And all lawn mowing machines need regular maintenance. For me, removing and re-installing mower blades for re-sharpening or replacement is never an easy task. I have found that using wood blocks to jam the blade to be too cumbersome, requires different size wood blocks for different mower decks, fall out of place, and so on. I also avoid removing my riding mower decks whenever possible. So, this is why I’ve created the Gracie Mower Blade Snagger to solve these blade maintenance problems on different lawnmower models.

Here is the Gracie Mower Blade Snagger being used to hold the mower blade while removing the mower blade retaining nut on my old Lawnboy push mower. The Gracie Mower Blade Snagger counteracts the leverage applied by the breaker bar wrench while keeping the blade in a fixed position and your hands in a safe working position. The blade contact points are protected by thick nylon spacers. The nylon spacers are reposition-able to extend their life and are also easily replaceable.

Here are some other examples of the Gracie Mower Blade Snagger being used on my riding mower decks.

Other features of the Gracie Mower Blade Snagger include an under deck scraper, a heavy-duty magnet to hold blades and blade bolts in place for long reach installation, retrieving out of reach tools or parts on the ground and easy storage. The tool also allows you attach a small magnetic mount light for quick under deck inspections.

You can also use the rounded end of the tool to help with installing or removing tight belts!
