Overview
What makes this one stand out is Tim's candid admission that he tackled the whole job wrong, using a box blade to smash through a concrete-hard surface when a backhoe bucket was the right call. You'll see real-world comparisons of the box blade, tooth bar, grapple prototype, and power rake against a brutal surface, plus honest damage assessment when a scarifier breaks. Most useful for owners curious about implement limits and what happens when homeowners improvise with what they have.
