Of all of the build-it-yourself posts this probably is the simplest and least complicated. But thought someone might use the idea. There's lots of ways to improve it but I needed something real quick to cover my seeds in the garden rows. Took about 5 minutes or so. Just drag it along and it covers the seeds.
Also, instead of bending over to plant seeds I dropped them down a 5' section of 3/4" pvc pipe.
I'm 5'-18" tall with back probs. and I hate bending over. :)

That's pretty tall !!! :laughing:

Unless you do it as a math problem, which means five foot minus eighteen inches which puts him at about three foot six, which is kind of short...
Guess we need to quit poking fun at his mistake, before he starts pointing out OUR MISTAKES!!!

As far as his invention, simple as it is, I only see one problem with it. It has a HANDLE on it, which requires me building an adapter to fit my tractor's 3pt hitch, lol!
Thanks for posting it!

Oops, that could be viewed as a minus sign rather than a hyphen. I'm 6'6" tall and I get a lot of the "wow! you're tall, just how tall are you?" Sometimes I say "oh, I'm just 5-18, they say no way you're taller than that...then some of them do the math, others just give me a blank slackjaw stare. :)

Half a baker's dozen.
