Drag I Built

[Egon]

That is not confusing at all John. Just use the same rod as the base wood you are welding.

If you are trying to attach say pine to oak you must use a composite rode made of the two woods in the same ratio as their weight per cubic foot!

If you find some wood that cannot be identified there is "Mystery Rod" available that should do an adequate job!

Welding different woods is much easier than metals like say aluminum to cast iron!

Simple and effective, can't get much better than that. I'm gonna try that myself on my kids trails.

I use weld-wood rods when welding wood parts together.
The nice thing is, they are cheap. You can grow your own,

I can't ever get a good ground when trying to weld wood.
The only thing that ever comes out right are my root passes........






I'm sooooo sorry.....

From the safety police:

Never weld wood under a wood tree during a thunder/lightning storm.......

Yeah, but look on the bright side - all those guys who always give you a hard time about not posting pics of your tractor(s) just lost their ammo...

I built one similar once to prepare for some grass seeding. Only difference was I made it twice as wide as it was taking forever at only 3' a pass.

Also, I nailed a row of concrete nails (regular just bent over) into the bottom to help scarify the surface just enough to provide a little loose soil for the seed to take better.
