11 years ago I made this digger from scratch to use in our big gardens to help dig the potato crop. We always had several rows 225 feet long and no way to dig them by hand so this is what I came up with. No plans, just cut/welded, and fit as I went. It is still in use and will see use this year as well.
I wanted to add drag chain and a wagon elevator, to put potatoes in a small wagon pulled behind the digger. Time was a problem and this is where I stopped. Had to use it the next day, problem is I never got back to modifying it! thanks; sonny
