I have a 7 ft rock rake, a 7 ft back blade, once had a 6 ft box blade, and I made a 7 ft wide V-shaped leveler. Sold box blade, did the worst job. Back blade digs in too much. However, I put a 3 inch pipe on bottom of blade so it can't dig in while pushing snow. It's not bad leveling a drive if the rock is loose, much better than a box blade. The rock rake is OK, but the 3 pt on my Jubilee has no down force. So I made a 3 pt attachment for the front forks on my backhoe. That way, I can put down force on rake and see what I'm doing. Rake does a great job of refreshing up a drive with down force. Helps separate rock from the dirt/gravel that collects between rock. The best is my v-shaped 3 pt self leveling device. I can also bevel it to angle larger driveways. Or if I have a single drive, I can pull rocks from the edge and crown and put it in one of the tire tracks.
50 years ago, my dad made a very large A-shaped grader using 3 pieces of RR iron. He pulled it with a chain and his old JI case. We had a very large drive and parking lot. His device would fill in pot holes, grade and level drive. That's where I got the idea of making my V shaped leveler.
This past summer I helped a neighbor level his 60x120 ft horse arena. Between the rock rake, the leveler, and my rotating laser, we got the arena with in plus or minus 1/2 inch.
