Maybe you can find an old dirt scoop cheap, make the attatched changes, and you'll be "rockin' round the clock".

So do you think that will work for you. Looks like a simple enough rig, but where you gonna stack all them rocks? Maybe you could ship them to Eddie and he could use them in his rv park.

There is a farm about 10 miles from my place in Mid Michigan that has more rocks than I have ever seen in one place. This guy has sold over ten tractor trailer loads and has not made a small dent in the rock amount. Don't know who bought the rock or how much was paid.BTDT said:
He has ruined three disks trying to plant crops. The rocks are not very large, most are basket ball size or smaller with a few boulder sizes mixed in.
I like the idea of shipping the rocks to Eddie, looks like he could use a few.

Without buying a new impliment I'm always forced to use what I have. Use your landscape rake by removing every other tine or remove two leave one and so on, depending on the size of the rocks that you need to get rid of. Angle the rake and make a bunch of passes creating narrow rows of rock pile.

hear that Eddie? rocks are yours for the taking. all you have to do is come collect them, carry them off, and I'll cut you a break on price since you are a TBNer...deal of the century?
the rock scoop is great. I'm thinking about how to widen it's mouth/intake, and how to attain sifting of dirt without weakening the floor. posibly welding on the teeth from a box blade, or something like that, so it ends up being like a comb for lice, just a bigger scale.
I recall seeing something on the Discovery channel about quartz rocks and cosmic energy. I also had a very strange female working for me once that had crystals all around her space to channel good vibes and cosmic energy in. Evidentually the new age folks have a great love for quartz.
You might consider advertising your quartz in some new age publications. I expect the hippies will come and take it off your hands. Ashville, NC seems to have done it.....Asheville Magazine
"Asheville is a richly spiritual and metaphysical place, maybe because it's surrounded by mountains enjoying heavenly views, and angelic cloud forms, or it could be the huge amount of quartz in the ground (more than a trillion tons!)...or maybe, as legend says, it's the energy that the Atlantian and Lemurian scientists implanted here after their civilization fell into the sea!"

About thirty miles from where I live near Tahlequah Oklahoma there is a "compound like" community that also worships crystals. Very interesting people.
