Home Made power Rake

This is something that I built over the corse of a couple of years. Instead of using a tractor PTO to power it, I used a 9HP Honda engine with a 6:1 reduction gear further reduced to around 540 RPM to match your sandard PTO shaft. It is a work in progress. I will look for or make a video of it actually raking material.

Ever hear of a lawn sweeper?

[drewr13NJ]

@ducksgonewild6294 Yes. I had a lawn sweeper once, but it did not dethach like I intended this rake to do. I can blow leaves with a blower , but I can't dethatch with it. Also, matertial that is frozen to the ground does not blow well either.
