After lots of searching I finally decided on a lawn striper design I liked so I built it a couple weekends ago. Still working out the best way to get good results. Here are is the second try using it...

Looks good. My Smiplicity has the attachment, like the way a stripped lawn looks.

Here is a link to the YouTube video a guy did showing the striper he made. I used this for building mine. I'll try to snap a pic of it later and upload it but the video below outlines it well.

Basically just a piece of schedule 40 PVC pipe cut to the same width as the rear tires, cat 0 pins in each cap and filled with sand then cemented shut. Just hangs off my quick hitch with a couple small pieces of chain and some links. About $60 in materials and maybe 45 minutes to build it.
