I was wondering if anybody knew of a manufacturer that made a large (5-6ft) dethatching rake similar to the little ones you see at Home Depot, Fleet Farm, etc. that are made by Brinly or Agri-Fab. I need to dethatch about 5-6 acres of lawn and want to pull a larger tool behind my 8n or jubilee and don't want to waste time pulling one of the $39.99 versions! I have a 6ft Land Pride landscape rake but that would not only dethatch but "delawn" as well. Would a drag harrow like the ones that Northern Tool sells work?

I needed the same type implement and didn't want to pay the retail price. This summer I was looking through some tractor junk at my brother-in-law's place and found about twenty-five spring tines and some angle iron. Took it home and in three days I had welded together a 3 point dethatcher-rake that works great. It's 5' wide and cost me $3 for the two bolt-pins to fit the tractor lift. I have used it several times and only lost one tine, but easily welded on another from the spares.
I have seen tines for sale in catalogs. Have you thought about building what you need from scratch?
