I had been looking for years before I bought one from a fellow TBHer. Took it apart, rebuilt and repainted. I had new steel plate sides made for it with modern day bearings. I had to order one new wheel.
There are some good videos on YouTube that show how to make one pretty easy - once you have the wheels. The wheels are the hard part to find or expensive to purchase.

We’ll be breaking ours out next week I think.

I recently bought a 6 ft heavy duty cultipacker from kunz engineering. It weighs 400 lbs and I can pull with atv and flip it over to transport on wheels or I can hook it up to the tractor with the 3 point hitch. I researched a lot before deciding on this one and very happy with it. It is ag quality. They also sell a 4 and 5 ft model

If you are interested in making one, you can buy the 9.5" inch wheels like on the Kunz and cultipackers sold by Northern Tool, Tractor Supply, etc. run about $15 per wheel. The 15 inch Cultipacker wheels like on the older units and the one I rebuilt cost about $25 each. Most run on a 1 3/4 inch axle.
I would suggest finding an older 4-5 foot unit and replacing the bearings and any broken wheels. Most economical way to get one.
I have also seen a cheap one made out of steel truck rims welded together - cheap and easy.Last edited by wellingtontx; 04-06-2021, 11:11 PM.

That’s a great looking cultipacker...

How do you get rid of the vegetation?
