I don"t get it! I"ve watched some of these box scrapers work and I don"t see that there is any advantage in using one? Whats wrong with using a front end loader set on FLOAT and (back drag) whatever it is your trying to level? I understand how a road grader does it, since any rise or drop of the front or rear wheels makes only a slight change in the grader blade, but what am I missing about a "box scraper"??? Has anyone ever used one and compared it to back dragging with a loader?

the main advantage with the box is its ability to "carry" excess dirt until it falls in the next low spot
