Doing more damage than good :-(

Wives don't seem to notice much about dirt work when things are going well, but are quite astute when things take a southern turn. Unless you want to extend the garden or dig a pond (if it is that wet you might need a swale), ruts need to be shaved (folded back into the scar) and filled. It's an art form with a box scraper, and I'm beginning to find my way with the dozer blade on my 4n1. Many people are horrified by ruts in their lawn, but for those of us with the right machine and the ability to operate it, ruts are not a problem. Actually it is embarrassing for me when someone finds a spot that is soft enough (lack of drainage) to result in a rut. I quickly fix it (fill the rut and correct the drainage) before anyone who knows better sees it.

Do you use a TNT with the box scraper?

Every now and then a context for one thing really does not work..
I am sitting here watching Blown away and saw TNT-- and for a good 10 seconds..
Why and how would you use explosives with a box?

then DING-- top and tilt..
This was just too funny not to share!!
I now return you to your normal tractor forum......


Later,
