So about a year ago I built a ripper / sub soil tool out of a box blade ripper.
Very similar to the one that just recently came out from heavyhitch.com
Works VERY well grubbing out stumps etc of the brush and standing dead wood I have to work with here.
The other day I ground a "root cutter" section on the shank. It seems to help a lot.....
When you are doing this kind of work, roots emit a snap, crackle, pop noise that is unmistakeable.
With this sharper section I have cut up to 2 1/2" diameter roots as easily as 1" diameter.
It isn't designed to cut meat, so it doesn't look like much, but has helped a lot.
This will be my first attempt to attach a picture........ Wish me luck......
