Tracked road grader

Here's a tractor conversion model as mentioned above. This one is very slick!!!

Here's the result of Danny's work on the ole pull type grader. It's a path thru our timber to the campground. He did pretty good for only having a couple hours experience.

Who stole the I-35 sign?

Who stole the I-35 sign?

No one. I purchased it from the local scrap iron yard. Thanks for asking.

Wonder why he is ripping an otherwise pretty smooth road. Interesting machine.

Only way to get rid of corrugation. They do it to our road every so often.

Speaking of corrugation; I always looked at them as an irritation until I nearly lost control of my car. I was driving on a paved road, and the pavement ended at an exit, on a curve, which I took a bit too fast. At the end of the exit, and beginning of the curve, was a nice washboard section. When my front wheels hit the washboard, they began to bounce, and I bounced into the left side of the road before they ended and I recovered control. Talk about a surprise; took me a minute to recover my cool.

I also saw a combine that was being roaded too fast, and as he exited a bridge, hit a big patch of washboard. The thing ended upside down in the ditch on the opposite side of the road.

Nice work!
Where did y'all hide all the grass that was cut up?
In the crown?
Or pull it out?

 

[2LaneCruzer]

That is nice work.

 

[ovrszd]

It was already a dirt path full of ruts and not quite that wide. What debris he gathered is buried in the crown.
