Sketchy!! I"m glad it's a prototype as it will need serious refinement. "EyeBolts are great when used appropriately. The weak link is the pot metal bits you fabricated the hitch from. Steel and Iron and case hardened steel is better. I like the design but it's more of a levelling and finishing unit. Get yourself some Diamond harrows to bust up that genre of the road. it takes a lot of trial and error but it's worth it to build up your experience and we (I) appreciate you sharing your experience with us. Looking forward to it. Lee
How did the drive drag work? I went with a very heavy angle iron and rail spikes that stick down about 3" I find the teeth are really needed even with many passes to loosen compacted gravel. I made the mistake of not going 48"-60" wide. Have you considered running sway chains from the pins?
