I'd love to see a picture of your contraption!
Thanks

Not all that hard, I guess. We have a thing
that attaches with a 3-point hitch to an old little Kubota with a creeper
gear. My husband has rigged pieces of PVC to fit over the knobs for the
hydraulic and accelerator so he can even "drive" from in back. The "pickin
cart" has swiveling boat seats so you can face or lean sideways and two people
can pick 3 rows on it. If anybody wants, I can attach a pic to email of
this truly Rube Goldberg contraption. We've been using it for years and it
does make picking - and some planting - easier. As for bush beans, I'm
short and even tho I've a pretty bad back, I still love picking beans - just me
and my little tractor seat.
Gosh, this getting old is the pits, isn't it?
