    Default Driveway Grader

    I'm thinking of making something similar to a DR Powergrader. Has anybody used or made something of this nature & how well do they work in "real life"?

    What have you made for this pupose?

    I built something similar with two side rails and two cutting blades. It is probably a cross between a grader and a boxblade and was designed for a 3PH. Mine workes great.

    Here is what it looks like.

    I have a 48" DR Power Grader that I bought last year. Was positive it wouldn't work on my 1/4 mile road. I was wrong again. Works great. A little tough to tow behind a 15hp gas Husky but I plan on towing it behind my BX24 this year.
    If you're not the lead dog the view never changes.

    BX24, loaded R4s, skid plates and wheel spacers, thumb, fold down canopy, lights, Woods RB60 and LR60, DR Power Grader, BH dolly, seatback bag, bucket hooks, leaky LF tire or rim since day 1

    My neighbor has a DR Powergrader and pulls it behind his 18hp diesel yanmar tractor and it works great. He asked if he could play with it on my driveway after he did his. I told him to play all he wanted. Came home from work and drive looked real Sweet. BX24 for sale now w/woods sraper blade.........Just kidding

    Trouble is, you're too far away! Cost too much to ship.
