Nice Miller rod weeder Allan. Just remember that rule using it last before planting only. Seen too many here trying to use them in spring or middle of summer for getting over ground too fast when too wet with weeds too big or too much trash and then they got a real mess with weeds and blowing ground later having to rip it all up again. Rod weeders been around a long time since 1930s at least when JD made some a old D could pull 2 or 3 of those hooked together.

Rule is to use it ONCE as the last pass just before planting. Kills all weeds and leaves a nice level bed with available soil moisture still in tact.
