Navarre, OH | Hello to all, this winter I am planning on building a roller for some of our fields, I would like to make it 20ft wide and have some sort of way to make it narrow for transport. I am going to take a look at some of them at the farm science review in Columbus this fall. Just curious if anyone has built one on their own? Any input is appreciated! Thanks |

East Central MN | Our farm has built 2 of them, both 33 feet, one a 3 roller, one a 2 roller. I would think one like the 2 roller design would work well. Ours has 36" rollers 5/8" thick. The 2 roller one weighs upwards of 18000 lbs. It can push a basketball size rock into the ground. Granted we are conventional tillage.
