I have had a ratchet rake for almost 10 years now, and have found it a very useful tool for any number of uses. I certainly endorse your recommendation. I got it originally to push out brush in my Forest, predominantly multiflora Rose. And it does that quite well. You can get all kinds of tooth bars for the loader but they actually cut the saplings and the brush, not pull it out of the ground like I want. But I have found a real use for this tool in minor maintenance on my long gravel driveway. It is really good at getting out bumps and small ruts. It doesn't replace a box blade for heavy duty stuff, but it is great for small stuff. Indeed, I have used it so much that the lower teeth on the ratchet rake have been worn down about 50%. Sooner or later I'm going to have to get a new one.
Nice video. A buddy of mine used one at his cabin. He liked it too. He issue was that he had a large stick come up and damage a ratchet on one of the straps. He bought a new ratchet and unbolted the straps from it and the damaged one. He then swapped them out and was good to go again.
Good day Sir, YES in deed a 15 to 30 min do take around 1 hrs to 2 hrs of video editing on the top of doing the video itself witch take time for the camera set up ect,,, Outstanding demonstration and review and that give ideas in a near future 😉😉👌👌👍👍 Have a great week Sir Cheers 🍻🍻
Hey bud, yup I love mine too. Aside for the brush obviously, I also call it a poor man's tiller. I've torn up/graded/and prepped for seed with it a bunch of times, it's just a great tool.
I am surprised that it does not damage the cutting edge on the two mounting points. Great point about this taking up very little space. It looks like a great tool. I always drop a like and comment for every video I watch as I know what you mean about the TH-cam algorithm.
I assume most cutting edges are hardened steel. You indeed always leave a comment. I appreciate it Joseph. Our small “sub community” of YT’ers have some great people in it. You certainly being one of them. Much love 🙏
Suggestion. Go to your local fire department and ask for some old fire hose. I use it to prevent chaffing on the ratchet strap (over the top of the bucket) You'll need about 1 foot of hose per strarp.
Just got a racist rake..used your video to use and attach mine..only thing..I paid way to much but that's on me..great tool..really works great for an amature like myself..thanks for the free info..
That’s a neat tool Case. But I’m surprised that the straps would hold it on. Just wondering can there be a strap in the middle. ? And can it be flipped so the bigger more aggressive teeth are on the bottom. Great video Case , thanks.
There is a holder for a strap in the middle, but it only comes with two straps. The person I bought it from was the original owner. A friend of mine has a smaller Ratchet Rake that’s around 54-60” long, and his only has two strap holders. I wondered the same thing about the reversing it. I’m not sure. Maybe someone else who has one will know. Thanks for watching and commenting Noel :)
Have used the Ratchet Rake for some time. Made a bit of a mod to it. Also figured out how to attack it to the grader. th-cam.com/video/VWABrmRPF-A/w-d-xo.html
I don't see it being very useful fixing ruts in dirt driveways especially if you need to add material. You would need to keep putting it on and taking it off.
Sure, I will leave a comment. First, put your ROPS up. I have seen tractors rolled on flat ground... Second, as soon as I see a TH-camr pandering for likes, comments, subscriptions, etc. I decide right then and there not to hit any of those buttons. If your content is good, I will, but not because you have to ask. Seems like EVERY video now.
This is too long! We get the idea that it can push and pull debris. What about the larger teeth? I didn’t have the time or patience to wait for that demo. Needs to be tightened up….a lot!

I agree with all your thoughts Case, it did a great job clearing your area 👍🏻. Have a great week 🙂🙋🏼♂️👍🏻
Thanks Luc. Appreciate it my friend. Have a great week as well 👍
That has to be one of the best after market tool for a tractor I have ever seen . If I owned a tractor I would own this tool . Very good review !!!!
Thank you Del. Pretty simple, yet super effective for sure. Thanks for watching 🙏
Good job, my friend. Looks like it does a good job, especially when back blading.
Yes sir. For the money it’s a great investment
Great video. Ratchet rake looks very useful.
Thanks Jay. So far so good 👍 Thanks for watching and commenting!

I could see big sticks being troublesome for sure. Glad he got it fixed up. Definitely a handy attachment. Thanks for watching and commenting Chris.

Yes sir. For the price, it’s probably the best attachment per dollar option out there.

Thank you kindly my friend 🙏
Thanks for the review.
You’re welcome sir 👍

Thank you for showing the rake
You're welcome 👍
I have one myself they are awesome they do great work
I agree. They may be the best implement in that price range
@@BuildALotAcres I use the ratchet rake in the woods the scratch up the ground to put throw and grow food plots in where you can't get with the plow
Thank you
I am considering this rake
Yes sir 👍
Just got a racist rake..used your video to use and attach mine..only thing..I paid way to much but that's on me..great tool..really works great for an amature like myself..thanks for the free info..
Very nice 👍. Compared to other implements, they’re pretty affordable. Hope you like it
Helpful video
@@yallthisismaddiep3805 Thanks
I have a ratchet take on a much smaller machine and it does a great job once you figure out the best way to use it.
Yes sir. I could see it taking a little bit to get used to. Thanks for commenting 🙏
good demo thanks
🙏
I like it good design and the price
Good video
Thank you 🙏
good info!
Thank you sir 👍
nice job
Thank you 🙏
Awesome.
🙏
Did you find it worked better going forward or reverse?
Personally, I much preferred backdragging with it than pushing it forwards.
Fellow FHC member here. Yes, videos are a LOT of work. Thumb ups and comments are much appreciated.
Yes they are. I know people who’ve done it will understand. Appreciate the comment 🙏
Who are you on FHC?
Good camera work, most don’t get it right where you can see we’ll what’s really going on.
🙏
I do love my ratchet rake but it won’t fit over my piranha bar!😢
You could attach it to a 3 point hitch A frame type attachment and use it that way
nice info
Thank you 🙏

I'm going to get one of these
I would. They’re super handy :)
Thank you

Always like to see someone breaking up ground. Could have used one today.
Thank you sir. They are a handy attachment 🙏

Hi
I don't see it being very useful fixing ruts in dirt driveways especially if you need to add material. You would need to keep putting it on and taking it off.
Good point.
@@BuildALotAcres Maybe if you could attach it to a rear mounted plow blade that would free up your bucket .
