Interesting I have been looking around for something like that that I could put on a 3 point or could be pulled by my Ranger.
Did you already have the box or did you make it? If you made it how did you do the metering?

Very nice!! I sure could use one of those!
Is the "rotor" under the hopper ground driven, or PTO driven where it actually digs into the soil? It's kind of hard to tell for sure from the photos, but it looks to be ground driven. And, I'm interested too in how you have built your metering setup.
Again, very nice!

You must have a good supply of "surplus steel" and STUFF. Looks like it would work well. As others have asked, how did you figure out the meteting?
