While I would like to own a 3pth tiller I don't at this time. Kick myself in the arse everytime I think of it. Had a chance to buy a 6' model, make unknown for $75. Worked fine and fella even let me use it for a couple days. I just did not recognize the value until after I passed on the deal. Hindsight is 20-20. Regardless your troubles reminded me of a time when I was bushhoggin my property lines. I was told no fences ever exisisted on the place. I even walked the boundaries before running my rig thru there. Murphy's law applies - bushhogged right down to the ground only to find the old, old, old fence. Those blades turning at 540 RPM "SNATCHED" that old hog wire from the posts and promptly wrapped it around my stump jumper and blades. About the time I recognized what the racket was in the brush behind me and the squealing I had nearly 100 ft. of wire wound up under the bush hog. Drove home and spent the next few hrs. just as you did with torch, vice grips and cutoff wheel removing wire. For the balance of that field I called in Forest Service and had them burn it off. Once burned me and the boys cleaned up all the trash. We now have a clean field. Still kicking myself in the arse about the tiller. . .
