Well, since everyone is sharing their homemade rigs I'll tell you what I use. It started out just like Eddies log harrow but it was an old 6x6 I found. But, my plots are small and it would not make tight turns plus it tended to wander from side to side. So, one day I just rolled it up like a carpet. So you basically have several layers of chain link fence wrapped around a 6x6. I wired it together and now just drag it this way. I works very well and turns tigher too.
I also noticed that the info about my disk says that it is built strong enough (I hope) to pull a harrow behind it. I'm done disking this spring but next fall I may try to rig it so that I can pull it behind my disk. It will need to be able to hand back far enough not to get tangled in the disks but close enough so that it will come off the ground when I left the disk. Even then, I suspect I'll have to be careful to prevent tangling when lowering the disk back down.
Of course it would only be used on the last pass.
I'll post pics if I ever make this work.
