A customer of mine wanted a way to disk and smooth at the same time without using a chain drag so I came up with this. What do yall think?

We tested it out yesterday and it worked good. We bolted the rake on so if he wanted to just use it or the disk he can.

Looks good from my place :thumbsup:. I'm just trying to figure out what's hiding behind the colored in area directly behind the disc attaching the rake. :confused: Inquiring minds want to know. Mark

Wouldn't a rolling basket or harrow be a better idea?

I see this plugging with debris?

He didnt want anything that would have to be pulled behind it so he could back into places. We tested it and it seems to work fine. It only goes into the dirt about 2" to give it a nice smooth look.

I am picturing a basket or harrow mounted the same way you mounted the rake.
