I have a 10 ft. heavy rear blade with a tail wheel that is hydraulic. So you can control the blade just about like a true grader would. I actually have a weight bracket on it too. It has 2500 LBS. of suitcase weights on it. You need a good sized tractor on it to handle the pull when you are really cutting. I usually put a JD 4440 on it.
About once each year I roll that berm into the drive way. I recut the crown. If there is too much grass/dirt in the berm I will roll it into a windrow and pick the window up an haul it away. I have washouts around the drive in places and this gravel/sod mix works good for filling them in. When I do spread the berm material out I just drive on it for several days and then hit the lane with a landscaping rake to sort out the big stuff.
Here is a blade just like mine. You can angle the blade side to side and the tilt to with hydraulic cylinders. Mine has a cylinder were the ratchet is on the one in the picture. I have 3 SCVs so I can use all of that with the tail wheel. With it being heavy it works good to roll off slushy watery, ice in the winter too.

Obviously that draft will increase if the implement runs deeper than eight inches, and decrease if it runs shallower. Why not use that draft fact to control the depth of work automatically? The draft forces are
