Kapper nice job documenting your drag.

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

More to come! This is a great tool for those having just an ATV on some property! Thanks

[@davidgeorge442]

I would take about 30 passes just because it’s so satisfying to watch 😂. Good to see the results. Well done, sir.

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

LOL I agree! And if I had more time I would have kept running it!

[@judsonpratt2543]

Looking Great .. I bet that does it’s job sir.

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

It does! If I'd have taken 4 passes it would be a whole new layer of stone!

[@TroySkampo]

Throw a couple tires or a log on the front for a little weight and it'll dig even better. I use an 8' wide version for dressing up a motocross track. They work amazing for seeding new lawns also.

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

oh man that would really kick this thing into high gear! Might have to try that on the next run! Thanks.

[@jimkavalier2831]

Does a nice job!

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

for sure! I really like it!

[@clarkwheeler8764]

Not half bad. Looks as good or better than what the county road department would do!!

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

[@clarkwheeler8764]

My gravel drive is only a little over a quarter mile but is curvy and steep in parts. I love my drag harrow and I usually put three concrete blocks across it and use heavy duty zip ties to hold them when working on the tines down side. This gives me a bit more aggressive harrow action and Yeah I go through a few zip ties. I then, like you, flip it to the smooth side and finish up that way. Works great.

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

Good call on the extra weight. I used to do it but got tired of breaking bungies! LOL. Drags are the best, low tech tool that I can think of!!

[@CedarBluffRustics]

So my antique bed springs are finally safe? 😅

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

lol yes honey.. For now! :)

[@darkkmatter5101]

I'm thinking of getting this for our driveway which is about 1/2 mile long gravel road. Problem spots are: some turns you see where the tires on vehicles are lower with a raised middle portion, and on a hill where the run off has damaged the right tire path. I would use the ATV as well.

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

There are multiple ways you can use that drag that I have not tried yet. I believe if you flip it the opposite direction it would even be more aggressive with the spikes digging some more. Best of luck though whatever you decide.

[@jagervolant7871]

Will it smooth out ruts on a dirt road driveway?

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

Depends on how hard or soft it is. But you could flip it to it's most aggressive setting to cut in and move more dirt. You can use it in 4 different ways. It is a great harrow!

[@bobpaterson1845]

Finished result looks a treat 👌 can't you use a blade on the excavator or the tractor to pull some gravel back from the side of the drive where it's been washed away 🤔

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

yep good call. It is on my hitlist to do that, but it is time consuming. The tractor blade wants to bring up a lot of dirt onto the gravel drive. The tractor loader or excavator seems best, but its still very slow. Sometimes paying for a load of gravel every year or two seems to be better time management.. ? cheers, thanks.

[@dustdevl1043]

It would really be hard to call that work, looks like fun!

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

lol thats the best part! Acutally 'working' but having fun!

[@Muravied]

Can it be used to extract weeds?

[@KapperOutdoors2.0]

It doesn't work quite that well, it might pull up some really light areas of weeds but not really heavy stuff
