Re: (ET) mulching

Go to:

http://cosmos.phy.tufts.edu/mhonarc/elec-trak/

I was able to search from there.

In short - yes you can set up for mulching and at least one member has 
done that. There are blades available (gator?) that just need a spacer 
to adapt the larger mounting hole on the blades. You will be driving the 
motors harder - there should be some info on all this in the archives.
