ErnieB,
Thanks for the info. You got me trying to remember where and when I've seen tooth bars used. They have always been used while digging and only digging, with one exception. One guy used the toothbar to help spread gravel by dragging the bucket backwards very fast across the gravel. The action that was created was incredible and the effect was great for doing a rough grade. After that, he removed the toothbar and then used the cutting edge to finish grade the gravel.
The guy who did my basement excavation also used the teeth and the septic installer also used teeth to dig the septic field/tank areas.
Thanks for the thoughts!
