Well he doesn't have to try too hard to sell it. He has the confidence that the unit sells its self. People like him don't have time for drama. Either you like it or not.

Also, you're not related to the presenter. Not at all. No. Total stranger, just making a random, glowing review. Right.

Same here 😁 I have a 30' circle to smoothe out .. 👀

Salesman. They're all salesmen. It doesn't matter what sex they are, they're all salesmen.

Is that even possible?

@@AllodialTitle Yes.

Use a fucking rock picker then first derp derp. This is for seasonal beds

It's almost for the grass only.

Why? Rocks is home to microbes and also are pack full of nutrients that is made available to your plants if you have the right microbes wich you will not if tilling the soil. And keeping it bare..

Utube is assho

Sounds about right :)

Will it work in heavy clay?

@@wagonwheel9426 I never had any problems using it on ploughed ground where heavy clay was present, you just need to adjust your speed to suit the conditions.

I feel for you having lived in the UK for a short time myself. Where are you based now?

@@spookybaba can I ask you what your interest in a rotordarian is please, your profile doesn't suggest your in anyway associated in agriculture nor horticulture??

Lay off the wine before posting

Forward rotating tillers are always pounding the harder debris down burying the rocks. Reverse rotation tillers hook rocks and flip them to the surface. 👍

Biggest one we have is 12'. The clip in this video is a few years old and the manufacturer stopped making the 14' models.

And thanks for your business :)

I would like to find a dealer in Nova Scotia Canada?

This would be fine for smaller things such as landscaping, tracks, football fields, etc. Fuel consumption is a concern for larger farms. Large tractor rotor tillers were tried decades ago but didn't work out due to high fuel usage.

Best of luck!

I’m the same way. I love thinking how things were first thought into existence. Most things are thought up by the common man who is doing the work and trying to find a better more efficient solution to fix a known problem. The old saying that “Necessity is the mother of all inventions. A show I used to watch a lot was a show called “How’s It Made”. The one episode I remember was an episode on the evolution of nails. The Romans were the first culture who “mass produced” iron nails for attaching and securing wood building materials. Roman blacksmith slaves could make about a dozen three sided nails 3 inches long in a full day’s work. Then they toured a modern nail factory where a machine spit out hundreds of thousands an hour. Simply amazing what technology can do. I’m a commercial Sheet Metal worker (Union Tradesman). Almost 30 years-I turn 55 next year and I’m retiring. When I first got in the trade we would have to stretch 2 to 300 feet of extension cords to run our power hand tools. Cords would get pulled out of the plugs, cords all nicked from getting ran over. As an apprentice I would have to go climb down the scaffolding walk through 12 inches of mud and plug a cord back in hoping not to get electrocuted in the process. I remember the first cordless drill the company bought. They only bought one and of course the foreman kept it all to himself even though he wasn’t working with his tools. Man it was awesome getting that first cordless drill and not having to mess with all the extension cord hassle. Now when my battery goes dead I make the apprentice run back to the gang box to get a fresh battery. They bitch and moan about being a gopher. I tell them “you have no idea about how hard I had it, I tell them at least you’re not dragging 2 to 300 feet extension cord. Fast forward 30 years I wonder what these apprentices will be telling their apprentices. In 30 years there might not be any tradesman just Robots.

What model did you get? and what was the price?

yes. dry(ish) soil is best. totally fine on clay so long as it's been loosened recently. it's a tiller, not an asphalt grinder.

There is another attachment that will level and pulverize the ground and wind row the rocks,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,look up Rukus Rake I just purchased one recently. We had one from Bobcat for a long time but this one is going to be a big upgrade because it can tilt as well as angle.

hand-o-dairon...🤔

CO2 is an awesome fertilizer and not to be feared. People go to great lengths to increase the CO2 of their grows.

People practice no-till for erosion control and labor reduction, not CO2.

You didn't watch the video , did you .

@@onthelake9554 🤣🤣🤣

There is actually a smaller version of this machine and it can be used on a mini track unit that you stand on the back of our local Kubota dealer had one a few years ago that they rented I think the mini machine was called a Dingo

Lol. I want to borrow it to replace my front lawn this fall. When my kids were young and were in the car, I’d point out some crazy huge machine and say that I’d really like one of those! “Dad, what you do with a crane?” I’d sell it. They’re worth a fortune. I can’t believe what I’ll watch. A few years ago I cut cable. I mean I REALLY cut cable removing lots of old redundant cable and poorly installed cable. Maybe I should watch some guy fish. I don’t fish but I’ll watch anyway.

any solid sources on regenerative agriculture?

the frost / thaw cycle isn't much of an issue if you're seeding the finished product with grass because the roots help keep most of that soil in place. but yes, if you've got a 16cm till depth and bury a 15cm rock, the soil will settle by 30% or more which makes it look like that rock floats to the surface. best solution (if you're not seeding) is to rip the soil ahead of time and pick out any rocks that are likely to stick out after settling.

the SqFt/hour is variable depending on the model and ground speed. Sometimes it's 4,000, sometimes it's 30,000.

How much for a 14 footer?

@@drakewalker8047 good question this day and age!! I'm not a sales rep... bought this one 12 years ago for around 23k at a auction. Can't imagine what they are going for now new... but what i will say is you better have a big ol hoss of a tractor💯!!🚜💨

We have used our on fields that were plowed with a tractor first but you have to slow down or maybe overlap the passed to get it pretty smooth for a lawn but it sure beats a lot of hand work. We had ours now for over 15 years and although we only use it occasionally when we have the right situation it is priceless. I think ours is 54 inches and we use it behind a Kubota tractor which is about 60 horsepower but when we first purchased it we had a tractor that was only 40 hp and it worked fine.

As with a tiller, to avoid tire tracks you shift the machine to the left at the end of the run and back up on untilled ground to reach the start point.

Smallest unit (which attaches to a mini-skid) starts @ just over 9k.

To a layperson, $9,000 and up sounds like a lot of money, but to a moderate-sized family farm, let alone a big corporate one, that’s not really that bad if you’ve got a need for this kind of equipment on a regular basis.

Yes, I expect there is Sticker Shock. Today I bought a front mounted brush Shredder and the price of implements are through the roof. You either pay for the sweat or hired labor or make the tractor and your sizable investment there more efficient. Also the older you become, the more you have to take advantage of mechanical advantages. I get it.

U can buy next generation near by in Italy

Why rocks are homes to microbes and the rocks has nutrients in them made available to your plants if you have living soil...

@@mikaellindqvist5599 This implement would work great for planting a new monoculture lawn or something else with super shallow roots, but for general gardening/farming it needs to grab or eliminate the big rocks. While it is true rocks can break down and add to the soil. It can take many years/eons for big rocks to break down. I am looking to improve rocky soils I can farm in quickly. I wouldn't mind if it crushed the big rocks into dust and gravel to eliminate the size/bulk of the rocks so the micronutrients and minerals they contain were more available to plants, but big rocks hidden just under the surface doesn't help any root crop, veg, or grain. They represent impediments to a healthy root system and contribute practically nothing to the plants as large rocks.
