What's the point in doing it twice? The Rolls aren't any heavier the second time.

There's a guy on utube who tows a ring roller behind a ballast roller-WTF is the point of that?
No idea I was just saying I would rather do it twice with 6m that are lighter than once with a 8ft single. The mentality of finishing it quicker and gaining ground wins every time 👍🏻

Some ewe lambs and rams in for shearing tomorrow. Expect they’ll be chilly tomorrow night.

A lot of mine I have to go each way, then wobble the roller on top and if they still don’t go in the pallet forks gets them 🤦🏻‍♂️
same here we used to rent some land and it was a bit stoney there was one rock that broke the plough so went back with the telli handler and tines it was so heavy the back wheels came off the ground and that was on a three-tonne machine a friend went there with a metal detector and all around that spot there were cultivator tines ploughshares and points going back decades
