Wish I had a picture, but I was driving.
Yesterday, while driving somewhere, we came upon a very large tractor with a very large turf roller driving down the road in front of us. The diameter of the rollers looked to be about 12' wide by about 30" in diameter. There were 3 rollers. One in the center supported by wheels for roading, and one on each side, folded up for transport. It took up the entire road, both lanes, and hung over both shoulders a bit.
We have some turf farms in the area, yet I'd never seen a roller like this. I'm just assuming it's a roller for the turf farms. I'd have stopped to take a picture, but it turned off onto a side road as soon as we came upon it, and there was traffic behind us.
Amazing in size of scale. Wish I could find some pictures.
