Nice! I bet you could tie-wrap the fence to it, rather than bolting it on. Probably be a bit easier to fasten. Still, that's a nice drag.

Does it put a lot of strain on the pulling sled? I wouldn't think it would be too bad...

Turn it sideways for a wider swath? How much did it cost you to make?

it cost me around 75 bucks for the square tubing and bolting hardware....the fence i got for free from a local fence company..they just had a dumpster full og the stuff! The reason i would say make it smaller is because this one created to much drag and resulted in horrible belt wearing..it really didnt need to be this big either..so i would make it significantly smaller and then maybe add some weight to the front so it doesnt lift when towing..
