you can make dandy road graders. lay out a vee facing side ways, with the narrow portion down. the two legs of the vee will have one in front with a shorter length than the back. the road dirt will level out with a sweep of the front blade and the back will prevent a ridge. use two parallel across the top to provide weight and prevent bounce.
