Got a little bit of rain so I took advantage of the moister and tilled up some unwanted alfalfa in one of the seedling plantings. I wanted to firm up the soil after tilling to minimize tire tracks and try to keep some moister in the ground. Here is my prototype tiller-packer and work it does.

Thanks Egon, its a work in progress. Planning on some sort of floating arm system connected to the tiller. So when the tiller is lifted, so is the packer. This way worked, got desired results but, obviously has flaws.
