Diy Tow Behind Compost Spreader. Instead of spending money on a new spreader or rental unit, make your own using a few household items. Possibly a walk behind earthway type spreader that is modified in some way to reliably distribute screened compost.
Update to last fall and this year: Feed flap, throttle, live bottom/agitator and propulsion; Make sure the flow lever is closed, fill the hopper, then open the flow lever and push the spreader for three paces of your normal walking speed.
Tow broadcast spreader this spreader holds 130 lbs.
Its design was developed based on our own experience as lawn care professionals as well as suggestions from our customers. 4.2 out of 5 stars 22. Don't shake the wheelbarrow side to side. When planting a new lawn, hydroseeding can save you time and labor.
