What Size Bucket

Why thank you Roy, I appreciate the compliment. I have not posted all that often because most people that post here know more than I do about tractors but sometimes I can add my two cents to the conversation.

High five!

If you can run a tiller over untouced ground without worry then you probably could put the toothbar on the back burner for awhile, I have to run a 24 inch ripper through the ground making several passes to get 18 inches down then de-rock, then use the ripper at 90 degrees to the first passes and de-rock for any area I want to turn into a lawn. With the FEL and toothbar I just pick up a bucket of dirt and dump it into my homemade sieve to separate the rocks out. I also end up buying dirt by the truckload a lot of times just to speed up the project.

The glaciers pushed most of the rocks past me so I don't get to play with them much. In 20 years, 30 acers have produced some where around 3 dozen rocks bigger than a basket ball. Really. I gave some of them away but about 8 of them were stolen.

I haven't seen anyone mention Markham Welding receintly for toothbar purchases. Are they still doing business?

I think Markham was either bought out or went out of business. If you just use the search feature at the top of the page and then search on toothbar you will get a bunch of hits. I messed up and really overbought when I bought mine. It is much heavier than anything shy of a skidsteer needs and weighs a bit over a 100 lbs. Way to much!

Lol, I wish someone would come steal my rocks!

I did some searching last night and found out that Markham Welding was bought out by Gator Attachments about 3 years ago.

That's a shame. Markham was a really good outfit. They got my toothbar to me almost overnight.

Dunno' about Gator.
