It has V shaped shovels, some are full and some are half V's. There is a culter in the middle to keep it steady. Never used it. Got it from a friend by doing a small backhoe job. My neighbor has a Massey with a 6 ft tiller. He always does my garden, however he is getting old and not in great health. He broke up one place I'm re-seeding. Still have to work over the ground a time or two to get rid of the roots. I have another place 20 miles from his big tiller that I've disked up. I want to get rid of the roots from the weeds before I seed. George [Reply]   [No Email]

I made up a garden plot a couple years ago.. soil used to be a watermellon farm decades ago.. then about 12ys ago i disced it to powder and made pasture out of it.. 2ys ago I ripped it a few times with scarfire teeth on box plade then plowed it.. after that alot of cultivator work... turned out fine.
