dandy idea with ballasted subsoiler. Gives you a bit more traction when needed by just lifting with quarter inching lift. :thumbsup:
is that a rebar welded on there tom h?
Yep, it's welded, but it's a piece of an old barbell bar, the regular old 1" American size, not that thick Olympic stuff. I got a neighbor who runs a little welding/machine shop in his spare time to do it. He's done a number of jobs for me over the years and charges about a third of what the big shops in town charge.
I bought the weights used really cheap too, some at a second hand sports equip. place and some off of Craigslist. I use a little clip that secures weights on the end of a barbell bar on top just in case I hit a bump or something.
