Yup. I stopped at our John Deere dealer and they referred me to the lawn and
garden person, who thumbed through catalogs looking for something. What I
expected, but starting at the parts counter even, was that we put together
the components. The large dairy/crop farms have implements that consists of
toolbars and attachments. They just couldn't apply that to my small scale
and vegetables. But, they send out parts catalogs once a year, and there in
the catalog are all kinds of sweeps. So, I will try again after I get what I
have out of the snow/ice.

I called the local implement supplier. He had never even heard 'tool bar'
when I asked and when I explained, he'd seen them at auctions.
I've seen them at auctions, as well.

My question remains: where do you buy them?

Thanks -Allan
