unkelfergus Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 Well it all started back in May/June when I got a pm from a member of this forum asking whether I would be up for building the 3 metre version of this rake.I told him he would have to wait until we had moved house and settled in and I made a start on it just before toytrac. One hardox wear plate and tines and the start of an awful lot of cutting !! full set of tines and the side members going on The rake will be made to fit uh front linkage. Push-off arms going on complete with hydraulic rams Whoops,..dont look too hard... Will post some more tomorrow,hope you like.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
