Motorized brush car

The line needed some MOW equipment since the leaf and acorn fall are significant this year. I was interested in the rail kleen but couldn’t find one for sale.

So I was poking around and saw this motorized brush roller attachment for a Dyson vacuum. It is 6" wide.

It cost $16. I used a flat car and a spare DeWalt battery charger to make a sweet sweeper. I think I’ll try to put a mini blower on it, since the vacuum head makes a good track wide shroud.


Here is an after shot.

Coool!!!
Giant Foot Action!! GFA!

That’s pretty nifty. I’ve been meaning to build a broom car myself; this $16 whatzit is like 90% of the work!
