Lawn rake / Dethatcher
One of my projects this fall was to make a 3 point lawn rake attachment. I wanted something heavy duty I could use as a lawn/gravel rake. The prebuild dethatchers were lighter than I wanted and the large landscape rakes were bigger (more expensive) than I needed. I ended up making my own, with at grand total of ~$90 in parts using square tube and bailing tines. It's 60" wide which fits perfectly behind the 1872. I'm excited to use it this next year.

Looks great. I have two questions. (A) From the ground (or floor) how high is it to the frame..?? (B) What brand and part number (looks like JD) are those tines..??

I like it, but not sure how well that will work on gravel. The best gravel rake I've ever used was a chain link fence gate with 2 cinder blocks chained on to for weight. Let us know your results.

Good looking build.
 I don't know how well it'll work on a gravel driveway though. When I go across mine with the de-thatcher there's stones flying all over the place.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
