Do you all think this blade has any value, or just scrap? It fits my D8-14A so it's big. The scrap value is around a grand I think. I'll never use it, but I hate to just scrap something someone could use.

Ideas?

If it's still decent shape, sell it! good grubbing rake. Think those were built in Canada.

not for scrap, sell it, drag it to an auction (spring is best)
-even if it needs some work, it's still a great start
- a thousand dollars does not go very far when buying steel, your time, welding rod, gasses, cutting discs etc...

Try to sell it by some method. Someone can get some use out of it, although it may not be anytime soon. I just spent a good deal of time fitting a 7F/G (not really sure) c-frame to a 7R for a man to run a K/G and rake from the earlier tractor. All parts were boneyard pieces.

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
