As you mentioned Tim, I’m a satisfied customer of the Edge Tamers. On the farm I have more issues with wind and drifting, so I mostly use them like you demonstrated in this video. With them on the loader, and the box blade for clean up on the concrete, makes for a great solution for my situation. I have a 4 in 1 bucket on my 4052R and in the past, generally opened the bucket and use as a snow pusher. (With the rock and dirt in the Spring🙁) The one thing I didn’t get a chance to try with the Edge Tamers, was to see if they would fit on the grader edge with the bucket open. I doubt that they will, but that’s OK as they work great! Hoping to catch up with you next week at the NFMS. Blessings to you and the “Super Trooper” 😉

I love edge tamers, just bought a third one to even out my loader bucket better. R2 manufacturing was awesome cause they contacted me immediately asking me if buying only one edge tamer was possibly a mistake, I explained to them I already had 2 and just wanted a third for a few uneven areas in my gravel drives. Nice to see a company that is looking out for their customers.

Love my Edge Tamers. I bought a pair in the summer of 2019 and used them that fall to pick up leaves to dump on a brush pile. Somewhere along the line I lost one. I was sure it fell off when I dumped a load of leaves. I searched and searched - even used a big magnet - to no avail. Late this fall, I burned the third brush pile on the same site and when I decided to clean it up and bury the ash, etc. I miraculously found my missing edge tamer! The paint was a little scratched up and even slightly singed but I put it on along with it's mate and they work great again. I'm thinking of getting another set so I have 4.

Same issue with the ice for me in Michigan. I got them at the end of the summer and use them to move leaves. They worked great for that and they work good on my gravel drive to the barn, but they leave quite a bit of pack down snow behind, and it ends up ice the first time you get above freezing for very long. I kind of like it if they were a little bit thinner. Maybe they can come up with a clamp on skid shoe that sets off to the side of the bucket like a snow blower so you can get your edge a Little closer to the ground.

I bought a set of Edge Tamers before this winter. They finally showed up in December before any snow. (Covid delays I'm sure) They definitely are a big improvement over just using the bucket only. They worked so good I didn't even bother with the 6 foot scrape blade. I did have a few piles of stone but nothing major compared to years past without them. Cleanup of the stone took less than 20 minutes with a rake compared to hours before the edge tamers (I have a large & long driveway) so I have zero complaints. I'd highly recommend them. I bought them after they were featured on TTWT.

I installed two of the Edge Tamers on my JD 2025R to remove light or heavy snow from our large stone driveway and parking area for our farm stand. They simply work GREAT! Besides snow removal, we use them to move wood chips, compost and dirt that’s been delivered and dumped in the stone driveway or on the lawn. You don’t pick up stones or dig up the stone driveway either.

My EdgeTamers just arrived. They were hit hard by the current logistics issues and had a long backorder. They released the new version after I ordered and because they are the sort of company that wants to do right by people, they sent me a set of the new ones in a size bigger as soon as they got them in rather than making me wait any longer (they did email so if the version mattered to me I could have requested otherwise). That was dollars out of their pocket to do right by me. I can't wait to try them out.

I had never heard of the edge tamers before. I bought my tractor 3 years ago because we kept having large snowfalls in our area . Had other needs for the tractor as well, but was really looking forward to having it to clear my driveway and to help my neighbors . 3 years later, we just finally had our first substantial snow this January that made it worth even using the tractor . Found a variety of Edge Tamer's on Amazon, but they had to do with Hair care .

In Idaho I usually use my bucket and rear blade for snow. This year it was bucket and 3 point snow blower. On the long driveways I was able to get the snow away from the road and it didn't drift right back in. I also used the blower on gravel parking lots and it worked better than I thought it would. It's all about getting the shoes adjusted just right then you can adjust your cutting edge height with the top link. I still have my bucket to back drag in front of a garage and scrape out ice on the concrete. I probably cut my snow removal time by 30%

Great video Tim and Christy! Tim, in Nov, 2020, I bought 3 of the EdgeTamers for my JD 4400 after watching one of your videos and used your code! This past fall I made our gravel turnaround area larger and the gravel is still somewhat loose. The edgetamers have worked great! No stones whatsoever in the grass. I use them on the straight away (175’) as well and push all the snow out to the ditch near the road. I even make paths on either side of the driveway to make the drive way nice and wide for the next snow.

I usually keep my edge tamers on all winter.

Definitely a must have for clearing snow on uneven ground with the bucket. Can't wait to get a real 3rd function plow for my tractor. The bucket works, but it's far from the best tool for the job.

I settled on a pusher as my day-to-day best option given the size and shape of my space. However I do have a pair of edge tamers as well and am happy to have them in the quiver, especially for the price. When I first got them I made a test by clearing a nice little road around my garage through a good depth of set-in-place older snow. Probably 18" to 24" deep in the field but with much larger and more dense banks at the edge of the driveway which needed to be busted through as well. I was amazed at how well they worked and how little damage I did to my lawn in the process. In my experience it's easier than falling out of bed to absolutely maul the lawn trying to eyeball a project like that with the bare bucket. They are also a big help if you have a pile of debri on grass in the warmer months.

I agree with your assessment Tim. I resemble this remark - many of us just get caught up in the desire for new toys, like blades and blowers, when we would be fine with a bucket and Edge-tamers. Some live to regret the new toys when we realize they’re in the way, and we really don’t use them enough to justify the cost. Now that Im retired, I’ve learned to check my emotions before buying anything. :-)

In the two years I’ve owned my 2038R I never considered edge tamers until we got a big dump of snow in Medford Oregon around Christmas. Normally it snows and melts and you don’t have to fret it. This event lasted 2 weeks and gave at least 15-20” of snow. My first attempt was with the bucket held about 1-2” off the ground but was tough because of the changing angle of the ground. Edge Tamers would have been nice. Later I used the rear blade with varying success but better than the bucket.

I have an older Deere 2210 (Sized about the same as a modern 1025R) and the Edge Tamer was one of my first accessories. They truly work very well. I'm from Central Iowa so we do see a few significant snows each year. There is one draw-back to the edge tamers, and that you have no option for back dragging. If that is not an issue for you, then I truly see no downside to the edge tamers.

Hi guys - really enjoyed meeting y’all at the Farm Machinery Show in Louisville last weekend. The blade attachment we use for snow removal on our 1025R bucket is called “The Snow Edge” from Ratchet Rake. It’s a large clamp-on piece with a plastic leading edge (that is replaceable) and works great on our blacktop and doesn’t leave any marks. About $350 plus shipping. Thanks again for attending the show and hope to see y’all again next year!!

That hibachi flame when it flares sure can warm you up so that was a good choice.

I just got my edge tamers the other day and look forward to using them. I live near Vancouver Canada and we don’t get a lot of snow, but when we do it can be a nightmare. A few weeks ago we got a dumping and I left my 260B backhoe on for ballast because I was expecting a melt and some sloppy snow. I also have fluid in the rear tires of my 1025R and it was too much ballast weight. The snow didn’t melt like I expected and even with a full bucket I had steering issues. I bought 2 of the new style cast 4” edge tamers and they look great. The only downside is that since I live north of the 49th parallel they were a little over $200 after $55 each and shipping and duties/border fees. Still a lot cheaper than the $1800 (plus taxes) for the frontier AF10F loader mounted blade with manual angle adjustment! So my friends that live in good ol’ USA, please enjoy your lower prices and free shipping...it’s literally worth it’s weight in steel!

As much as I appreciate that 3046r tractor, at present I have no need for it. Nonetheless, it is a very nice tractor. You and your wife take care. Best wishes.

I definitely like that with my snowpusher you don't have to dump the bucket everytime. I love that 3046r. I'd love to see a video sometime comparing the 1,2, and 3 series and the kubota.

They are great looking products, I made three bucket shoes for my 2032R this year and I was able to remove snow from my neighbors gravel driveway. In the past I was not able to do their driveway. Tim, you need to buy Christy a heated jacket.

bought mine directly from R2 and they are awesome. The knock offs on amazon have major complaints and negative reviews... don't buy them! As Tim mentioned, let's support US manufacturers!

Hi Tim. My edge tamers cost $100 for two. Ofcourse that was 2 seasons ago. The way my driveway is a blower attachment isn't what I could use or justify the cost. That float position really works with just a little down tilt on the bucket. Enjoy them. I know I do.

Your banter makes me smile. Great video! I'm going to look up the edge tamers. Would be great if they made a poly version. We are looking for cost effective option for our loader to use on our parking deck.

They would also help to pick up those huge piles of leaves. Use the bucket without destroying the grass! …AFTER you have gathered with the leaf plow.
