My dad used a buckrack on the front of our 1938 JD G. It was built by a local blacksmith and firend. As said in the other post the outer ends of the tines were tipped up slightly when it was loaded. It was tipped up by using a cultivator lift lever. The mounting and back frame were metal, the tines were round poles, probably not hardwood in this country. IN this area people stacked hay in the field with an overshot stacker. The buckrake was used to haul the hay to the stacker. Sometimes after the hay was stacked they came in with a stationary baler to bale it up. I have also seen and worked around, hose powered buckrakes, interesting contraptions. Good luck building one, you might find pictures in some old books.
