Culvercreek hunt club Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 I finally got the grader done and gave it a test run at camp this last weekend. 5' blade that angles both ways Guage wheels that allow independent adjustment to set a crown. It worked really well but the material was a tad wet to roll of the blade. sure beats the $1,000 to 1,200 I have seen on some types. I have it made so I can drop the blade off and add a york rake (next project is to make this) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fasteddie Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 That's quite a neat rig ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Culvercreek hunt club Posted April 19, 2011 Author Share Posted April 19, 2011 Thanks....had to pull it with Dad's bombardier traxter though. Under load my sportsman would squat and change the digging depth. I have to make a rear suspension lock and that will be solved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-Man Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 looks like you could add a weight box and do a little heavier grading as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Culvercreek hunt club Posted April 19, 2011 Author Share Posted April 19, 2011 I thought about that Gman. It is the first implement I had really used behind our wheelers. They are only 500's and I wasn't sure how they would pull. If we end up getting a small tractor I probably will add one. That could probably handle it pretty well.
