Looking for a core aerator in good shape to use on my lawn. Hopefully somewhat local.

Same here. What I found locally is that they can be pricey! Used 60" to 72" 3 point aerators in JD, Woods, Mahindra, Ryan, etc... we're running anywhere from $800 to $2,500.

I found this one after looking for a long time on Craigslist. Had to drive quite a ways to get it. I need to replace a couple of spacers and bushings but I just couldn't pass it up. A friend of mine used it this weekend and it worked great.

I just purchased a 72in from Everythingattachments.com for $1700. They also have 60in and 48in. It works great, produces nice plugs. It is load with sand, no need for water. Only negative and I knew this up front was that you need to raise it when making turns. I like that it has stand supports and I put it on vehicle dolly, so I can move it around in my shed.

Everythingattachments was easy to work and FedEx was easy to work with as well.

Be patient and monitor craigslist.

For many months to years I was checking craigslist nationally using google search techniques. Nothing.
Have not been searching lately, sort of gave up.

They do tend to be seasonal in my area. Spring and Fall. After everyone has used them. Too early for Fall.

Re: 60" 3pt. Core Aerator.

Core plugs all over the place,? There is a better way. If you own a tiller, find a local welding/machine shop. Have them make straight blades. They make a slice, best form of aeration. I have a Befco tiller, straight blades are an option, look at their greenrite seeder, just a seeder on a tiller body. They have a video I believe. Blade spacing is 3 inch. Too close for me, mount blades on every other hub.Your tiller now performs duel functions.

Use the search function and search for AERAVATOR...it is made by first products but they have them for Grasshopper Lawn Mower, Ventracs, and 3 point hitch models. Let me tell you....the aeravator is jut an amazing piece of equipment. It performs wonderfully and does a better job (in my opinion) than a traditntal plug aerator. Go to youtube and type in Aeravator. They are expensive pieces of equipment but you can often find used ones. This is what Scotts and tru green uses in my area. I charge $10 per 1,000 square feet to perform the service. I will only do 2 or 3 yards...but the results are always incredible.
