Recently I have been looking at some old two wheeled tractor types, thinking they were long a thing of the past, however it appears I was wrong as there is a place in KY making them now! I am looking really hard at getting a 11 HP diesel model at some point in the next few years for use in the raised beds I plan on making shortly, I know that I will need the mechanichal, brute force edge a tractor supplies but without all the weight and soil compacting and destroying tendencies that come with even the smaller tractors, this would do all I would ever need to do inside raised beds (not corn or sqush or watermelon FIELDS mind you), exspecially with a good selection of implements. They are pretty pricey but I think if a person were a market farmer or a large gardener that they could easily justify the cost, exspecially if their name Is Alan and they are an Idealist hippy hillbilly. www.earthtoolsbcs.com

I went and picked up that David Bradley I had the pictures of earlier this summer. It is in ROUGH shape. I might be able to work on it this winter some. I'll see how it goes.

definetly keep me updated on this project and if you can then post some pictures from time to time, I have found one in really great shape if I can talk my great aunt out of it, she even has 6 implements for it! I'm reallly excited about the prospects of it! -Alan
