Take a look, tell me what you think.  It's a craftsman.

Mike, you had me hook, line and sinker!  

Your "tiller" looks great! Is it your first?  :thumbsup:

Tiller looks good.  I'll bet you'll be able to get at least 1/2 foot per second out of that one.

Sorry you all, I had to do it.  I've been getting my garden ready but then it started raining.

Nice!  

I always preferred the rear tine, but definately could not justify the extra cost.  Luckily I've had my fil and neighbors old TroyBuilt Horses to use, at the expense of keeping them running.

Frost date is Apr 20 here so we've had 'maters in the ground long enough to have blooms.  I rely on neighbor for beans, okra, squash and such.  Roses, iris, daffadils, peonies have all done their thing.  Zenias just about ankle high.  

Hopefully my sunflowers, millet, milo are about the same.  Put the dove field in around tax day if I recall correctly.  Haven't been there to check.  Posted this year's doins to facebook but here's a couple of links from last spring.

I'm growing a nice crop of dandilions this year.  They make good targets for shooting blunts at.
