    Really from what I understood you were really hoping to get grass so as to have less mud:whistle:

    Nice HD- way to get after it quickly:thumbs:

    So, is this a low spot at your place? Drainage issue, otherwise?

    That thing kicked my azz a little bit in that muddy dirt.
    Home Depot is only 5 minutes away but it took almost an hour for them to find them way up on a shelf get a fork truck and get them down, that didn't bother me because I wasn't planning on messing with it today but got home and change my mind

    That's the best to fix ruts-till it up, level and re seed. A bunch of work, but equipment makes it easier.

    The talk about Kombi tools makes me laugh. I bought a 130 last year with the power paddle, and added a pole saw and extension last fall. I got thinking that I am not using it enough, so I bought the trimmer unit last Saturday so I will use it more. I already have a FS 85 and a FS 250 bike handle, but I do a lot of trimming-they'll all get 10-15 tanks of fuel through them in a season.

    That tiller attachment makes the work go pretty fast, I have some other areas I can fix up now that I've been putting off
