Ground Roller needed Dexter Mi

[William Pete Hodges]

I fly into a family owned grass airstrip 2E8 in Dexter MI. The owners are the wife and children of the now deceased owner. They have a 2100 ft grass airstrip near Hamburg, about 20 miles north of Ann Arbor.

They used to have a large pull behind concrete roller that they pulled behind a farm tractor. Apparently it was on loan to their father, but this year the owner of that roller removed it from the airport.

I never measured it, but is was about 3 or more feet in diameter and about 6 feet wide. I was wondering if anyone here knew of a similar roller that could be had for reasonable amount of AMUs that they could keep. Let me know if you can help.

Thank you in advance.

Ain't got no roller - but you might ask here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/michiganpilots there would be more people reasonably local to the airport.

Try iron planet. Might pay more to move it to your location than it costs for the roller. But you might get lucky on a local one if you do the leg work.

Old 500gallon propane tank partially filled with beet juice (keeps from freezing in the winter). Just need to do a little welding to make axle shafts.
