Nice snag Phil!!! That one is definitively on my list of most wanted. You know it is the wrong color for your tractors, maybe you should send it on to someone with a B or two and keep on bugging Biggie. |

Greg, you win! You now get to be on my contacts short list!  ( no good deed goes unpunished)
A member on another site posted "42" B series grader" or something to the effect. He said he had come across he grader and wanted to know if anyone wanted it. Luckily I was the to answer, "I DO". Mr. Green was one of the posters on the thread suggesting tha he move it to the want ads but it was too late I snagged it. Biggie Rat has been on the look out for one for me to keep me from bugging him about his Virgin NOS grader.
I never realized the blades were that thick. I've been dragging around my Agri-Fab rear grader and the blade may be 3/32" thick. This blade is at least 7/16" maybe 1/2" and probably accounts for 55 of the total 70 lbs. |

Mid mounted blade blade would be a very nice catch. Looking forward to a review. |

If it's a disassembled weed cutter I'm going to jump out my window now. Glad I live in a one story house. Maybe a front bumper/weight bracket, or a three point hitch. |

Yeah, this is Michael's Tractors! Trying to get y'all to guess what's in the package and we end up discussing the tape! Go figure. |

Hard to miss all that fiber reinforced tape isn't it! That tape is pricey too!
Average strength is somewhere around 300 psi. if I remember correctly. good stuff for sure. Funny thing though. If you fold the tape back over itself and crease it, then open it again you can tear it along the crease with your fingers. |

I'm guessing Mr. Green packaged that at work on break. This will be a fun unveiling. |

Looks like two cardboard boxes to me! |

Oh, I was impressed. I was expecting the carton to be all torn up with 70 lb of iron.
"Unveiling" tomorrow. |
