Grader/Scraper Build

Ha! Economics and convenience, I had the grey and no red... I probably would of still painted it grey, for stealth grading LOL :thumbsup:

Yeah, I like attachments to be colored according to their job. Grey fits this tool very well.

Great day to take the grader/scraper out for its maiden voyage, it just rained last night and dry enough so there is no mud.

Here's a couple of pics before work began



I have to say, this thing is amazing! What used to take me 6 or 8 passes with the 3 point back blade now only takes half that much and you can go quite a bit faster.

The scarifiers make all the difference in the world, they loosen up the packed down road bed so the blade can spread it out smooth. The single 3 point back blade had one hellof a hard time doing that and is why it would take so many passes to get the road smoothed out. I did in an hour what it would take me 3 hours before.

I am totally impressed with this implement and how effective it is in smoothing out my road, and it pulls nice and easy.

A couple of quick pics of my main driveway and about half of our shared road.

Glad it works good for you.

I'm always nervously optimistic the first time I use an implement I built....

You definitely live in big sky country!!!
