Default Re: Creating a simplified Landscape Rake

What I've kind of learned to do is pull the material in a straight line to a place and leave it there. Then I do it again just next to the last pull and leave the pile next to the previous pile. After awhile, I havle a long line of debri all lined up in a straight line.

I first tried to pull the line with the rake, but it all fell out the sides and just made a mess. So now I'm going to try to pick up what I can with the loader and hual that to the burn pile.

It's absolutely amazing at cleaning small areas. But as soon as it gets full, it's effectiveness is drastically reduced. My burn pile is several hundred feet away from where I was working, and as I progress on my land, I'll be even further away, so hauling the piles with the loader might be my best option. I'm just wondering about how much dirt I pick up versus how much material I miss with the bucket.

My guess is I'll get better in time. hahaha

Thanks for the replies,
Eddie
