#1 disaster was my attempt at a potato plow based on a design out of a tractor book. It wouldn't even break the ground with my tractor.

#2 disaster was one of those quick hitch things that didn't fit any of my implements without modifications.

#3 disaster-- built gauge wheels for a sliding 6' grader blade, but couldn't get the grader blade to reliably lock into position.

I can't achieve the same results with the FEL as the rear box blade. I've seen guys grade with the bucket on a bobcat and get good results, but not me for whatever reason. I get more done with my rear box blade, bush hog and plow than anything else.

How come some responders like Lbrown and jas67 seem to require many separate posts in a row, while others like archerm3 can wrap up replies to 4 posts in 1?

Do some people get paid for posts?

Is there some honor in wasted bandwidth?
I thot it was just a parody of LBrown

I think that LBrown does. Look at the number of posts that he has.
Wow!... Great idea...And I thot it was just a parody of LBrown. ;)

my fel and box blade are invaluable for my use. They complement each other as they do different work.

I had to have a quick change system and purchased the one at the top of home page. Its for sale now. With 7 different attachments and their different pin widths I can hook/unhook quicker with out it.

I have some questions for you guys that prefer your FEL to a box blade. What type of grading are you doing with your FEL? What do you do when you need one side lower than the other? :confused:

Let some air out of the tires on one side? ;)
