Subject: Stalk stomper - homemade



I made these out of some heavy pipe I had lying around. They bend the stalks over nicely. At first I just welded the end of the chain to the pipes. After about 10 acres the links were breaking that had been welded. After beefing them up and using heavier chain each side weighs about 135 pounds. I might try adding more weight to see if it will flatten the stalks more. Less than $50 invested.
