Hi all. Local trailbuilder here. We move dirt with machines and finish by hand. Specifically we pack with McLeods, which seem to be a popular choice for others as well.
Anyway I am curious what ya'll think is the best McLeod for the job. We really like the ones with welded heads because they don't have bolts sticking out of the flat side which leave holes on the surface of trails. We have gradually broken all of ours except for two that we found in a shed. They have become coveted as we search for replacements.
Thoughts? We are based in the United States so we prefer tools that we can buy from distributors here.
Thanks for the recommendations! We use Rogue Hoe products right now. They are excellent tools but they don't offer a Macleod. The closest thing for our purposes is probably the 8" Rhino. I really like the Macleods offered by the other two. Probably going to buy one from mtnmetalworks and give it a shot.
