Building and testing a homemade cultivator to plant wildlife food plots. I couldn't be much happier with the results. Check out the update here • Cultivator Update 2017
Hey, that works pretty well! We use a spike tooth drag for our food plot, but it doesn't go as deep into the ground as your cultivator. I'm always looking for a better idea to try. Thanks for posting! If you decided to invest in a 4WD ATV, I would recommend being careful with the clutch. I have gone through about 4 clutches on my Polaris sportsman. BTW, I also liked the music in your video having performed Gershwin many times myself.
Angle Iron was scrap we had laying around. (2 in. angle at Lowes would be about $65.00 ish), Threaded Rod was $2.00, Wheels were $20.00, Blocks were laying around but run about $1.25 ea. Misc metal tube and square tube about $20.00 Finally about $20.00 worth of Rebar.If I was to buy everything, Maybe $150.00 all up. I used it a couple weeks ago to put in another food plot. I broke a couple Rebar pins off this time. I'm considering switching to an "S"-Tine setup. It will only need 3 or 4 tines and they run about $10.00 each. I'll update if I ever get it done.
When I added the S-tines to the unit, It worked great in grass. But be sure to mow it short and use roundup to completely kill it or it will grow right back.
Increíble idea voy a hacer uno igual
Looks great
Looks a hell of a lot more fun than ploughing with a tractor.

Ya think maybe it's about time for a top end job on that 4weeler?
No mechanical experience here but trying to learn.... how can you tell?
how much did that cost for all of the materials to make?
Looks like that disposable wheeler needs new rings.
It’s a 2 stroke🤦♂️
You see that smoke? That means your burning up the rings.... at least the tiller is detachable when you burn up you atvs😆 good job tho..
2 stroke bonehead
