    Backyard pond

    Depending on how involved you want to get and how big this is going to be, look into putting a drain below the liner. If you ever have to drain the pond (or it drains on its own) during wet/breakup season, water can fill up the hole and push the liner up. This may not be a concern for your area...

    Land Pride BB1266 anomaly

    Yeah, I thought about that. I realized that the blade assemble isn't just hanging by half of the original welds; it is welded along the entire length of the top to the back wall of the box, so it isn't going to fall off. And I feel like fixing it would only tempt me to use it for grading again...

Guess I gotta...

    Land Pride BB1266 anomaly

    I got this box scraper new a few years ago. Have used it quite a bit for spreading gravel and "finishing" snow as I plow the driveway. I've never been that impressed with scraping down high spots when grading out flat areas in existing soil. I've never used a box scraper before this, so I just...
