Wheel-N-It 2,967 #14 Posted June 4, 2012 Funny thing, just this afternoon I was thinking about making a concrete lawn roller. Looks like it works really good. I know you enjoy using it. Van Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
darren 49 #15 Posted June 4, 2012 Me too Van Can you give us an idea of the size of the roller part Lars? My puller would be a 312-8. Based on your post I think it should cope with something in the 1200-1400 lb range; my lawn is level.. It looks as though concrete weighs in at 140 lbs / cubic ft, so to achieve a 1200lb roller it should need to be about 8.5 cubic feet; to get that sort of volume, it'd need to be 1.5ft diameter x 2ft width. Is that about right? yours looks bigger than that Lars. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lars 526 #16 Posted June 4, 2012 I can take a look at it. and se how big it is.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
