    I may be wrong but I was alarmed at the parallel lines of (grass seed ?) dumped between 1:08 & 1:22 ? Well done for taking the initiative and making a funnel. Nice video. Thanks.

    Love the funnel. Interesting that my brain goes immediately to sheet metal rather than plywood for the funnel. Love that different people see improvement potentials differently, and they can both be right and good!

    Looks like the seed was coming out in only 2-line pattern

    Funnel also increases capacity, so fewer return trips

    • @firstname6208
      @firstname6208 3 роки тому +1

      you do not want to increase capacity, top soil is already heavier than compost. if you exceed the recommended weight and break an axel, that's on you. and that isn't cheap and these days it could mean down time of weeks or more. one more trip across the lawn is much more advisable.

    How does your yard look a year later? I'm looking at buying one for our home.

      Well my yard looks incredible but it doesn’t necessarily look incredible because of that machine that’s one element of many elements.

    way to expensive, and if I need to pay 6k I would expect a permanent solid solution instead of a diy wood construction.
