3 Point Power Rake Build

[Zick]

Thanks Zick,
Your build / power rake post helped me the most on my build.

You inspired me to build my own.
Thanks.

Thanks, I'm glad it helped! :drink:

Seeing things like this never ceases to remind me that my DIY skills will forever be sub-par at best

Very nice work. Can’t wait to see some videos of it in action and what kind of finish it leaves on an area

Love it, top quality work!

I like that you put your bearing on the outside protected by the box sides. I put mine on the other side which works but are more exposed to dirt and rocks.

Nice work!

Wow is that nice. The video is an equal work of art. We definitely need some action shots of it at work.

On one of your posts you mentioned the axle. So, it runs all the way through the drum?

 

[premierindustries]

Yes, all the way through the drum.
The drum axle is shown in the first post.

Impressive and leaves a lawn seedbed finish. Great job.

Awesome build! Is there anyway you could provide a parts breakdown of the PTO, Gears used, chain length etc... going to be building on soon & that would help me & maybe others out a lot. InInread you already have size drum and all. Would like for information on setting up the PTO, shaft and gears. Thanks!
