rocks and pasture help

[3RRL]

Yeah, I end up picking up the rocks by hand too. It is a major pain to do this.
I've tried using the boxblade to barely scrape the surface (no rippers down) and collect only those exposed. This works to some degree, but you still have to empty the box or pretty soon it will "jump" over one and spill out all the rest. I wish there was a rock "magnet" for this purpose.

I have had very good luck with my T-8 Harley Rake. It can eaisly pull out a shoe box sized rock sub surface (2" bellow).

Check out the pictures.

Nice job ! Now what are you going to do with your rock pile? Mine keeps getting larger and larger . Jay

 

[Rowski]

The job was done for someone. I went by this summer and the pile was still there. The guy didn't want the pile moved.

I know what you mean. I do some rotary cutting too. There were 2 fields this year that I never hit rocks. One field I hit 4. The other field 3. Must be they are growing. I guess it must have been the wacky winter and ground frost.

On our property we just stock pile them. Sort them, if possible, small medium large.

Need a Roomba like gadget that random walks and picks up a rock, and puts it into a waiting bucket (quick attach, detached). Then just snag the bucket every now and then and move the rocks.

Not like there's a big rush to pick up the rocks.... although might need a mechanical llama to protect the Roombas from human coyotes!

I like the rock magnet idea. I convinced a guy I had masonry welding rods. Same principle.

Oooow..... Cool!


Are they AC, DC or BC? I would guess, BC as there was more rock used then.....
