    Sprayer frame for 3 pt hitch

    I have a few apple trees and spray them with Kaolin Clay Powder mixed into water to drive off the Japanese beetles organically.

    Yard needs smoothing tool

    I have a load of screened loam to get my yard smoothed out. The lawn/yard has lots of small holes and is rough enough that 2 hours of mowing leaves me with a sore back from the bumpy ride.
