Anyone ever built a sulky for your gravely?

I have heard of people building their own sulky and I was wondering if anyone here had done so.

I would love to see some picts of them.

Thanks much

I haven't built one, but they are pretty straight forward so I can't Imagine it being too difficult. Mine came with three, a standard riding sulky, a steering sulky (which never worked right and I never fixed), and a roller sulky that I'm pretty sure someone built. If pics of them would be helpful to you, I'll happily take some and post 'em.

What model Gravely do you have?

I would have to go to the barn to be sure but its a Model L? I just found a site that has the old manuals for the sulkies just after posting this and their diagrams are great, thanks for the offer of picts though.

I wondered if the steering sulkies worked much at all...they seem very basic.

Oh the website is http://www.oldgravelys.net/docs/ for anyone that wants to know.
