Have any of you ever built a grader implement to smooth out rough gravel driveways. I was thinking about trying to make some thing to pull on the draw bar like an old axle and run off of two hydraulic cylinders to push down and cut with old grader blades or something. Just a thought, would love to see photos if anyone has.

thanks

Stu

I had it in my mind a while back that a mid-mounted blade on my Farmall using the lift-all to control it might be a decent way to grade. Not sure if there is such an implement though. There are graders out there that can pull behind a tractor and, of course, the self propelled models.
Some of the old ones show up at tractor shows here and there. They are pretty interesting machines for those of us who have private roads to maintain, but I hear it takes two men and a boy to operate one of them.

My road drag is two "I" beams ( 6"x10") that are 8' long and welded to cross braces about three feet long. Log chains are attached to pull it at the desired angle to the drive way. I have been watching auctions for a 10' wheel disk that has a ridged frame. I will drop the disk gangs and use the hydraulic frame for a carrier for the drag. This will allow me to turn at the end without an unhook. Dick Davis
