    The dock is supposed to sweep ours, but that’s too much like work for most of them. :rolleyes:

    I’ll do it myself if I catch a day with no pickups.

    Looks like a grader attachment for a Big Bobcat or similar. With luck buyer will just ease up and hook the face plate, lift it up a tad, and back it out.
    Tell us how he did it, or a pic....

    They use them around here on subdivision streets. They'll plow it up then bring in a cement tanker put a adapter on the discharge that's as wide as the tanker and blows cement onto the ground. Come back and plow it again and roll it. Depends on the soil, most times it's cheaper than adding stone for compaction.

    No snow plow for the side by side? You could make a couple bucks to pay for it if you did.

    You have to admit, some of your van brothers aren't known for their ambition.
