Anyone built a poly pipe for lawn irrigation "pipe layer"

[DoubleO7]

For their Cub Cadet.
And have pics to share?

I am imagining a hunk of 2" steel pipe with an easy sweep 90 degree bend.
Leading edged with steel plate to make like a cutting edge.
Coil of poly pipe would be up above vertical end of 2" pipe.

My yard is basically grey beach sand and I only have to lay it in 6 or 8" deep.

May not be much help, but I've watched this video a few times and think it's a cool setup.

I remember seeing what your talking about in the home made section of MTF.

Basically a sub soiler with a pipe sweep behind it.

I built a cable layer with a long sweep elbow of 2 inch metal conduit strapped to the back of a subsoiler. Pulled it with my Ford 2000. Buried lots of direct burial UF cable. Would easily handle putting in irrigation pipe. Might not have enough traction with a cub cadet unless your soil was very soft, so you might want to rent a 4wd sub compact or larger tractor with a cat 0 or 1 hitch.

I think it will pull it, no problem. If I can pull a moldboard plow 5-6" deep in Illinois clay, he can surely pull a single rip shank 8" in sand.

it will be a single time use so it ain't gonna be pretty!
