I have graded a few areas to smooth out high places, and create more gentle slopes, etc so I can mow easier in the Spring, and so it will be as level as possible - the area is now a gently sloping -rolling landscape. What I am now contemplating is attaching a length of chain link fence to either the FEL or pallet forks or to the back of a box blade and dragging it over the area to take out the small ridges of loose dirt and small clods. I did this in a small area - before I had a tractor (weaving a piece of re-bar into each end of a 6 x 6 section of chain link fence to keep it somewhat flat) and it worked fairly well as I dragged it by hand back and forth - the fence sort of disbursed the loose dirt and clods and flattened the loose ridges - now I want to use this idea with the tractor and on a larger scale. Any suggestions as to how I might embark on this task ? Anyone done anything similar ? By attaching the correct length of fence to the front or back, I will be able to drag it and reposition by lifting it out of the way with FEL or box blade. I can't simply drag around in circular fashion given the area, and slopes and restrictions.
