And the award goes to . . .
who knows, maybe the credit goes to my hydraulic filter.

My hydraulics have mysteriously stopped faintly creaking and slowly leaking down.

Picking and washing the mud out of my tires after raking my neighbor's back fourty, er, one acre.

Nice rake... I brought a JD scraper blade that needed some repairs when I got done Fix'N it I put it to work on my driveway... My helper said a landscape rake would do a better job I have read they do a bang up job leveling a drive sooooo I said I have rake and all new tines lets get the new tines on we did just dat... I could not believe how well it worked on my drive... It looked like I just had a load of new gravel put down...

I did come up two short (tines) got them on the way... Scraper blade repaired and sold.. I brought it on the local swap shop CHEAP, Imagine the face of the blade pointing at the ground the weld not a good weld from the factory was a pizz poor weld tho it looked great I got it back together repaired it I spec I had 4/5 hours in it I got $500 fer'it...

Life is good...

BTW I had a good helper that has a GOOD eye for straightening chit... He gets the credit I was the helper... We have fixed a bunch of stuff this winter that was total junk to the average guy......

Hobo,

Yours is a killer and with those tail wheels it was sure worthy of new tines! The orange crank turns it right?

Now if I can find another tail wheel I can use it along with the one I just restored that's on my Ferguson Cutter. Dual purpose

About driveways, do you angle the rake for any procedures?
I used my blade end to take down the hump on a driveway
but it sounds like maybe the rake slightly angled would take down the hump too and do a better job of distribution.

Nice Looking mechanical paradise homestead!

No maybe next time around I will.... I did use the grader wheels so I could drop and go.....
