made at rake attachment to go on three point hitch blade ....tines are 3/9" cold roll steel ...two pieces of 4x4 treated i had ....4 carriage bolts ...drilled some holes for tines...they swivel so doing corners or zig zags adds no load or trauma ....only four ft wide ...kubota will work at 10mph plus no problem ....

results not bad only had one piece of steel 12ft long ...need to get one more ...tine tines are about 8" apart ...one more piece will make 4" ...did not take to long to do ....7$ spent on the one piece of steel.... :builder:

How did you pull those trees down? I don't think the mighty 'Bota has enough power for that! :shock:

 

[slabghost]

It's sand there not clay.

 

[brianinpa]

Yeah, but that one picture shows evidence that there may have been help from a bucket of some sort.

thanks daeouse....im sure most could care less ..but it dont look like ill be doing any oldwing projects work for a long time or ever ....for yrs ive posted my projects ...and this is it for now .... thanks again

ive invented or made many tools through out farming experience ...this is up there with the best ...i needed to come up with a way to work the grassed in areas and also not damage the sprinkler under and pop up irrigation system ...most great tools are simple ...the biggest reason there great ...this tool will actually cut the grass and work the top of ground also ... its a piece of angle iron 3x5 and a 1/4" thick..it is pulled down low on the 5" angle side by the mighty mouse kubota ...speed is big deal but increases as thing get better ...it was a pleasure to watch it work as it did such a superb job ...the... 5" angle leadinf edge cuts the grass and scrapes like a plan ...and the 3" angle back drags and blends....i have it on angle when pulling as it creates more edge and a flow ...great tool im very happy ...and it cost nothing to make stuff here to make it
