Forgive me if this has been said before - I'm relatively new to the forum.

Get yourself some steel toe-capped boots, and even then be careful.  Rotavators are fantastic but they are a little dangerous.  Mine has 8 tines and whilst I'm happy bobbling along in the open, my feet have both nearly been devoured when working under low trees and bushes.

i would have loved a merry tiller but unfortunately it was out of my price range  :(  I've been looking for one second hand for months but they don't seem to come up around here, but I always wear steelies so I should be fine  :lol:
