I used to own an ant farm but had to give it up. I couldn't find tractors small enough to fit it.

My closest Cub/Toro..etc.. dealer had one of those on the show room floor forever. There was someone on eBay awhile back trying to unload a few. They had some scratches from being moved around, that was about it. They look well built and easy to work on. Just real expensive.

BCS has been around for some time. First saw them in the early 70's. Seem to recall it is a brand from Italy. Remember thinking the design was nice and workmanship looked good. Don't think I've ever saw one in an owners hands. |

Friends of ours had a BCS tiller for their market garden in Virginia. They really liked it. It held up well although parts weren't cheap.
I just saw the BCS exhibit at the Northeast Organic Farming Association conference in January, and was impressed with the equipment. They come with Briggs, Honda (gas) or Yanmar diesel engines; quite a wide price range. Lots of attachments. I'd seriously consider one for a small truck farm or CSA operation. They even have a rotary plow, which would be good for breaking new fields. |

I looked at them years ago.
There was a company Mainline that i wanted Mainline rear-tine rototillers/walking tractors looks like they still may be around .
I cannot remember what it was about the BCS i was not thrilled with.
Here is a fun look Garden Tractors
I saw somthing like or was the ransome types, they would put reins on them and use them like a team of horses
