I brought in 30 ton top soil to get grass to grow on our Geo trenches. It had lots of rock in it.


Now I need a rock rake. I don’t want to spend $600 on a rock rake that I won’t use very much.
I am going to make a 5’ rock rake. I ordered the tines for it. I found a place that had free shipping the tines were 61 pounds. They were $140 shipped.
I went to the scrap yard yesterday and bought some 2” x 2” square tubing ¼” thick this should work nice for the frame. I bought I nice piece angle iron to hold the tines.


I will make one similar to this with some design changes.



The tines imported from Italy have arrived. All 62 pounds of them.
I just ordered to the 56 (100) bolts and 5 drill bits to put this together.
I hope to get to work on this built over the weekend.
