Subject: I made it.........(more pics of it)


Its an unreally simple design. Course, it has to be, or I would'nt have built it.:-)

The roller weighs in at just under 17,000lbs. It's heavy, that's why I put a long hitch on it. I wanted a rollaer that had as close to the same weight on the wings as the center section. I basically built four sections of roller the same and then stuck them under a main frame staggering them for a little overlap. Plus, this way when I work the field at an angle, i can raise the roller for the tight turns.

If you want to know more about the dimensional workings of the fold, just say so and I'll try to draw it out on a paper and scan it.

PS: I did'nt invent that fold design. Just figured I better clear that up for obvious forum reasons.:-)
