Nope, nothing that fancy. I have an Earthway walk-behind planter which is why the uneven, clumpy beds have been causing me such a problem. I've thought about getting off-roading tires for my Earthway planter (just kidding), but I'm thinking the bedshaper would make more sense.

Thanks for all your input.

You don't say what kind of planter your are using. In the past, I
think you have said it is a cotton/corn/grain tractor mounted planter?
Something suitable for planting many acres of large seed?

I believe most folks here are using Earthway or Glazer hand
pushed/pulled planters that are suitable for planting relatively small
areas with small seed. These planters need smooth and level beds.

How do you plant lettuce, carrot, broccoli, mustard, onion, etc?
