[Market-farming] Perfecta II

The excellent video from Vern Grubinger (University of Vermont) called "vegetable farmers and their weed control machines" has a segment about the Perfecta.  Seems like a very nice tool to me although I've never used one.  I know many growers that use basket weeders for stale bed prep, others that use tine weeders like the Willams Tool System (from marketfarm implement).  I have used a simple field digger for several of the tasks you mention (although not stale bed prep) so I think the Perfects would work very well.  -John
