Laser grading baseball fields in Iowa pt 2. This is what our field mapping software looks like. This is an after picture. You can see the water flows from high to low in a consistent pattern. The accuracy of our equipment is greater than 1/8".
We are just starting to dabble into this so I don't have the experience to answer quite yet. It depends on the lip and how aggressive we want to be. Typically they are only an inch. I would overspeed if it is greater than 1.5". This machine can cut 1/2"-3".
@SISISMachinery this is the TM1000 it's a self contained fraise mower. It is playable, the grass takes a few weeks to grow back, much easier then replacing sod
This will remove any lips while keeping the grass roots intact. It's an aggressive treatment that eliminates resodding. This should be done yearly in the fall to allow the grass to grow back. This process is called fraise mowing
We can help, I can send referrals your way if you want. We have been rebuilding mounds for over 5 years and have time this spring. Send me an email fieldwork15@gmail.com I can send a quote.
