[QUOTE="SmokinM, post: 1778635, member: 21382"] I am not sure a tire drag is the best for that operation. They work great for manure but in my experience they gather to much loose dirt and the dump it it piles around the field when it gets to full. They also flex a lot so you get almost a wave effect. I have a cheap version I built with a couple cattle panels sandwiched between oak boards then used tractor tires for weight on top. It works well for what it is. Always wanted to build one with a iron frame and a good steel screen of rebar or the like but haven’t been that industrious yet. Got a couple hours and about $100 in the one I have and it has made it several years of light use. Just my $.02, I am sure there are plenty on here who have turned a lot more dirt than me. They may have even more to offer. [/QUOTE]
